I’ve been saying, “I was born without a uterus”, which so far seems to answer honestly without directly outing myself as trans.

Any thoughts on how to best navigate this? Ideally without disclosing I’m trans 😅

    Assuming you’re not a trans woman, nobody asked you. Maybe don’t go blundering into minefields.

      This is a vibrant thread that sparked informative discussion about trans people’s interactions with healthcare. None of this would have happened without someone blundering in here and saying something uninformed.

      Anyone is welcome to participate in this community, including cis people.

        yeah, but I wasn’t asking for cis perspectives on this, and it feels more like the thread has been hijacked and taken a direction I wasn’t intending. It’s making me think having a community where cis voices are not allowed might be a good idea … To be honest, this isn’t the first time this has happened either.
