Women in British hospitals who complain about males in their space may be removed
https://www.thepostmillennial.com/women-...uidelines/
Quote:Britain’s National Health Service (NHS) has been a vocal and active advocate for trans affirmative medical care. Their latest foray into making sure male-bodied trans persons feel comfortable is to allow them access to medical care on women’s hospital wards. If a female patient has a problem with it, she will be removed.
“Women patients who complain about having a biological male in the next bed risk being kicked off the ward under new NHS transgender guidelines. Medical staff will be expected to deal with those who object to trans patients on single-sex wards as if the complainant is a racist or homophobe, the guidance states. Rather than relocate the trans patient, such as to a single room, it will be the person who makes the complaint who will be moved, according to the policy.”
Women’s groups complained about this change but were rebuffed. In fact, if a woman complains at being roomed with a male-bodied person, hospital staff is instructed to protect the trans person from the woman. The “…duty of care extends to protect patients from harassment and should the woman continue to make demands about the removal of the transgender patient and be vocal in the ward it would be appropriate to remind her of this… Ultimately it may be the complainant who is required to be removed.”
The NHS argument uses racism as a means to bolster the argument, claiming that “If a white woman complained to a nurse about sharing a ward with a black patient or a heterosexual male complained about being in a ward with a gay man, we would expect our staff to act in a manner that deals with the expressed behaviour immediately.” Of course, these are completely different things. Race has no bearing on gender, as both sexes exist within every race on earth. The same goes for sexual orientation, the fact of who a person is attracted to has nothing to do with their anatomy.

To think the Brits once ruled the High Seas and much of the known world. Pretty soon we'll be able to read "The Decline and Fall of the British Empire" right next to "The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire". Idiots.

I see why many feminists view transgenderism as the ultimate form of misogyny. It is inherently anti-feminist.

The preferential treatment of men/fake women over women really has gone off the dep end.
I haven't heard radical feminist groups fight it. Am I missing that?
Or are they accepting it, i.e. being subservient to the male power structure putting them back in their place?

Yes some feminists groups are fighting transgenderism.
link to Washington Times article explaining the movement
Basically, feminists are concerned by "female Erasure". If anyone can be a woman by choice then protections for women are meaningless or non-existent.
