So there has been slot of debate and upset about those terms in medical journals. I don't want any trans bashing I just honestly want to know what the trans women/non binary equivalent is. Like men need prostate checks and checking their scrotom etc.

I know woman have postrates too but their smaller and very rarely a issue but is obviously something that has to be checked in a male born body. What would they put on the phamlets? Why is female biology terms okay but male related ones not?
Because it is about oppression of women. So no need to erase men. It isnt on the agenda.

I've tried googling but I'm not finding anything. I honestly mean this in the nicest way if their going to change medical language for people born female they have to change male.
Ah. Please allow me to introduce the patriarchy. Men are what men say they are. Women are what men say they are.

Not sure it's ever allowed to name them like that - saw something on Ovarit where they were discussing someone being told off on Reddit's r/ActualLesbians for trying to describe them as "penis people".

I think transwomen find it offensive to be talked about like that. Confused

Mostly, men get to keep their sex- based language.
