Anyone that used that term is a lunatic.

Disgusting phrase, as said by someone further up the thread, a "bonus" for penis havers

I wouldn't have a problem with making medical professionals aware of slang terms, but it's difficult to see that such a stupid and childish term would really be used by anyone.

If a patient can't handle the term vagina, then clearly they need psychiatric help, but as gender dysphoria is already a recognised condition, I guess you do have an argument for medical professionals avoiding the term with particular patients.

It’s very very rare that I’m speechless, but when I read this earlier I actually felt a bit dizzy. Like the rubicon had been crosse and had disappeared past the horizon.

I feel a bit sick.

It's awful. How is it supposedly a bonus as opposed to a bog standard hole anyways? 😬😣

I'm guessing if you're a "gay" "trans man"?

Anyone who uses that term is a porn obsessed perv.

MsMoody · 08/07/2023 18:07

I don’t think Jo’s trust were actually suggesting anyone call it a bonus hole. Just providing a definition of it for healthcare workers in case they ever had a patient deranged enough to use the term.

I thought we were supposed to be bodies with vaginas..? Are we now bodies with bonus holes, just trying to keep up here you know…

Whether the Daily Mail haters like it or not, they do have a huge readership, so it can only be a good thing to let as many people know as possible about the insidious agenda that is happening.

They also have a big article about the banks and Stonewall.

Lols it's the daily mail. You do realise it's all made up or taken out of context for maximum outrage and clicks to keep attention to a dying paper?

Whole concept is ridiculous. I can't believe anything I read in these rags now.

Of course calling front holes and back holes is absolutely dehumanising and quite sick.

It is your lot calling them Front Holes or Bonus Holes.

At least have the grace to own it.

AlisonDonut · 08/07/2023 13:22

This has been around for years now.

Wasn't it that the 'vagina' was what men who had surgery had, whilst a 'front hole' was what women had? Guidance issued about 2018?

They can't call it a front hole any more, because the actual front hole is not the vagina. So bonus hole. Because presumably women get that as a bonus for being women.

There was nothing wrong with the article.

Yes I read it and was appalled. I hate what this country is becoming.

SaveMeFromForearms · 08/07/2023 13:14

It's not new either. The reference to it is from 2020.

It's utterly despicable. These charities put so many women off of supporting their otherwise good work, it's a damn shame they all got captured so easily.

I came on to post this article. It is so offensive, dehumanising to women and misogynistic. As a women who has had carcinoma in situations of the cervix and used to direct friends and colleagues to Jo's that certainly will never happen again.

I’m a man, and even I think it’s absolutely awful.
Even more shocking is the organisation behind the attempted change in term!

Greenfishy · 08/07/2023 13:11

Utterly utterly insane

You know you can go on the charities website and see it for yourself right? That it's not lies in this article.

Good. The more people see this nuttery, the better.

MowingTheTerf · 08/07/2023 12:17

Sounds like something from Nuts magazine.

Did you even check before wading in?

As usual, no you didn’t.
