Guess which sex is included in 'LGBT female'?

Yes, you're right. The government includes men who identify as women. It makes no mention of the health needs of actual women who identify as men, and come under the LGBT classification.

Why not? That's the question being asked of them on Twitter

Because
That's a lot of girls with ROGD - excluded.

That's a lot of de-transitioning women - excluded
That's a lot of women suffering from the consequences of surgery - but they are excluded too.

Instead, the government includes transwomen. This is another demonstration of how a Health Plan for LGBT women is really designed as a validation exercise for a group of men, while the real and present health needs of women are dismissed.
