Hospital apologised TWICE for misgendering.

(Sorry it's DM, really sorry, but open the article for the photos..)

This has fucked me off no end. Hurt feelings?! Women who have horrific births, left with injuries and PTSD get less bloody response from hospitals than this fucker. Perhaps if birthing women identify as trans hospitals will pay them attention.

Talk about wasting NHS time and resources.

Male entitlement shining brightly.

Why is such sexualized behaviour tolerated because the person states they are trans?

A women wearing trousers and a crop top was told to cover up or get off a plane recently. Yet this male can walk around a hospital in fetish underwear and be granted an apology because a nurse misgendered them.

Yeah, like we all go hospital visiting in an Ann Summers outfit, don't we?

That article contains a clear example of a photo being worth 1000 words.

What’s with the face they’re pulling in the photos in the article? It’s like they are genuinely modelling their ‘female’ facial expression on a blow-up sex doll. It’s utterly bizarre.

Sorry, just got the updates. The first one is reasonably okay. (NOT for a hospital). The second a disgrace.

Fuck me. I've not spend much time in hospitals, but have a couple of bad things that I made complaints about (my son's care, my own care during labour) - and not a dicky bird.

Most oppressed minority my arse.

That pout.....

I am not sure if MN mods allow me to confess that my first thought is Ann Summers blow up doll.

01:20:31 I don't know what this post was that was deleted ? I didn't send one after 01.17.00.

I saw this in the Devon Live FB page and the comments were.... Interesting! I didn't realise that Chantelle had been strutting the hospital around in an Anne Summers outfit though, WTAF?!

From the article
She said: 'I am always dressed as a woman. I had full make-up. I had my hair on.

'Dressed as a woman'......... Womanhood is a costume that men can put on apparently. From Anne Summers.

Jesus.

Out of interest, how are we pronouncing "errgh"?

It is amazing what you can buy from Anne Summers these days!

I think the poor old NHS will need to arrange training for their staff on how to deal with malignant narcissists.

Staff need protections against this type of behaviour.

I'd imagine anyone seeing 'Chantelle' dressed like that would think 'bloke in fancy dress'. I know I would.

I would love to know who this unfortunate nurse is, who is being forced to apologise. I bet he or she is being properly dragged through the mill for their apparent transgression. Poor bloody sod.

HumberElla actually I bet the nurse isn't being reprimanded. The trust will phrase statements so it looks that way but in reality there'll just be rolled eyes. Nurses have enough shit to put up with without them being further alienated.

The hospital should point out that as nurse she would be pretty shit at her job if couldn’t tell the difference between male and female! Or are we now suggesting that NHS staff pretend to be blind and stupid?

This is worrying for me personally. I'm a nurse and my ds2 who has aspergers is expressing an interest in going in to nursing. How would he cope with this particular individual?

It's tricky enough for psychiatric professionals to deal with narcissists, but ordinary staff can't be expected to manage this.

I posted a thread about this yesterday but it was pulled. Have no idea why? Are we not allowed to draw attention to this story? Have not received any notification from MN to suggest why?
Nothing in my op was contentious to my knowledge.
I am so sick of this shite actually. Dressing in red nylon makes you a woman.
It is a mens sexual rights problem.

I've just remembered, I was wrong, I did post again last night. It was something along the lines of an evolutionary trait to be able to distinguish between the two biological sexes. But apparently that's not allowed. Funny old world.

That's interesting needmorespace in light of my deletion. I'm happy to be pulled up if I break the guidelines, but like you I don't know how I did.

I hope you are right Ancient and rolled eyes it is. I have visions of nurses being put through re-education training for this. Featuring fetish lingerie catalogues as some sort of grim ‘spotters guide’ to gender ID.

Polyester red lace babydoll = pronoun ‘she/her’, protected characteristic letter K.

I'm happy to be pulled up if I break the guidelines, but like you I don't know how I did

Getting clarity on how deleted posts break guidelines and how to avoid breaking guidelines going forward is something I have found to be extremely difficult.
