If a radiographer asked me if I was up the duff I'd question his qualifications...and his eyesight. The world's gone completely radio!

It’s the absurdity that I struggle with.
If I, or for that matter every single other bloke I know, presented themselves for a scan, it would be blindingly obvious even to the most achingly right-on NHS employee that we were obviously men thus making the question redundant.
If it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck, and waddles like a duck, it’s a safe bet it’s a duck (unless it’s identifying as a drake I s’pose!).

naomi wherever there are people and rules there will always be some people who simply follow the rules without thinking through what they are actually doing.
With regard to the hospital rape, let me suggest a scenario to you. A man arrives at the hospital, which he has never visited before, and identifies himself as female. He is put in a female ward and rapes a woman there. When the police, at a later date, ask the hospital for the details of the man on that female ward, they check their records and say there was no man there because all their records have recorded him as female. As far as the administrative staff are concerned, being the ones the police will go to first, there was no male on that ward because their records say there wasn't.
If all the hospital has to go on is their recoeds, are they then lying ?

New Judge, I am well aware of the absurdity of asking a male patient if he is pregnant. When asked he has a few possible options - answer no, give a light hearted response as suggested earlier in this thread or feel insulted and cause a furore which doesn't help anyone. My choice would be to save my ire for something important and take one of the first two of those options.
With regard to the hospital rape, I have outlined a scenario in which the hospital administration could have been unaware that there was a male in the female ward. That is a consequence of rules which allow someone to self identify as female or male when they are not physically so. If the rules are changed to, for example, only permit trans women who have had a sex change operation and are now legally female to be put in a female ward, it creates a different issue.
Suppose I was born male but have changed sex - to all outward appearances I am female, just without ovaries or a uterus. I have not yet changed my sex legally, so my official documentation all indicates that I am male. With that rule the hospital would have to put me on a male ward despite my external appearance. The same question would also apply were I born female and have transitioned to male, complete with penis, bit had not changed my legal sex.
None of what I have said willl change anybodys mind, nor do I think it will make them consider their own attitude to the whole biological sex/gender issue. It isn't an issue which will go away anytime in the near future, nor it as one contributer to AB might put it "woke cobras". The split between bilogical sex and percieved gender was raised sometime in the 1940's if mempory serves, further work was don on it in the 50's, 60's, 70's and later, and these days it's becoming political, so I will do my level best to keep out of it in the future.
