As always, does that mean trans men should also be placed in the incorrect ward? Or do they also get their own private rooms?
The Guardian article about this suggested it would apply to both, but that may be The Guardian’s own supposition.
Like most of their policies I doubt the government have thought about the details.
Trans men doesn't exist to the bigots. They always forget them. And then when reminded they're fine with trans men being treated like men. For ... reasons (mostly reasons of having forgotten they exist)
