Feminism: Sex and gender discussions
WhichWayPleaseImLost · 06/02/2024 20:15

No shit!! This equally applies in E&W. It is beyond bananas.

HagoftheNorth · 06/02/2024 20:17

Who’d have thought?!

Blimey. Just like we've been saying for ages.
Frankly? I would like to say let them suffer the consequences, with no blame to be attached to any HCP.

But I'm not a monster. Biological sex should be recorded. And if they want to add gender-woo-identity, whatevs. But always know the real sex.

Gosh!

If only someone could have foreseen this and warned the world . . .

Rainbowshit · 06/02/2024 20:34

Who'd a thunk it? Why are so few people seemingly capable of thinking through such actions.

Or alternatively they could listen to the people raising such concerns rather than scweam twansphobia. 🙄

My flabber is well and truly wasted! But apparently they aren't brave enough to actually forbid changing the NHS ID.

JanesLittleGirl · 06/02/2024 20:46

Well colour me astounded!

"The Scottish Government has previously insisted allowing records to reflect a patient’s “lived identity” has led to “improved patient experience” and “enables better healthcare planning”.

Better healthcare planning? Who actually comes up with this bollocks?

Toseland · 06/02/2024 20:57

Well really - who would have thought that swapping the words <blue> and <green> would have caused such problems?!

"A Scottish Government spokesperson said...This document is in draft form and is currently with stakeholders for their views. We will publish our agreed policy in due course.”"

Let's see if it survives eh

It is very significant that it's Scotland doing this.

Can't actually find this anywhere.

Please can somebody summarise? It is behind a paywall

Use the arhive link in the OP!

That works, thank you - the first link didn't work for me and I didn't realise there were two

I read on reddit the other day a trans man talking about their marvellous treatment during egg retrieval on the nhs. They were provided with their own waiting room, a private recovery room, and were allowed to forego the usual vaginal scanning because it was triggering (Christ knows how they'll handle a pregnancy should one of their eggs get that far).

What the actual fuck?!! I mean we'd all love a bit of soothing privacy and kidgloves while having gynae investigations but somehow ordinary women have to just suck up the bog standard treatment.

This person said they didn't actually want kids, but thought they'd have eggs taken just in case, seeing as how it's free.

Trans rights = trans privilege.
