    Seems ridiculous at first, but read the twitter thread and I feel she may have a point...


    https://twitter.com/trustednerd/status/1201665480504668162

    her three other tweets in that thread:
    Gynaecologists form a part of the multidisciplinary team who engage with transgender and non‐binary patients, either as part of the transition stage performing surgery or managing pre‐ or post‐transition gynaecological problems.

    The @cpsbc_ca has confirmed to me that the refusal I’ve received is discrimination under the BC Human Rights Code and against their code of Ethics.

    So @cpsbc_ca I’ll file a complaint with you today about that clinic. Trans people need to be included, not excluded from society. Pre and post gender affirming surgery care is super important!


    How do you feel about this?

    I'm not too sure, Trans people should have access to services they need, but I don't know if every gynaecological surgery should or could be able to handle cases like these...

    They're a f*cking troll who are doing the trans community a disservice with all this bullsh*t. Imo, maybe trans people may see it differently.

    Oh well, give me an easy life and a peaceful death.

    At least there wasn't any cake or waxing involved.

    I feel they’re a joke, a joke that’s in poor taste, being entertained by idiots, defended by fools.

    Their business, their rules. Storm in a teacup. Yaniv doesn't deserve the oxygen of publicity.

    Why does someone who doesn't have the specific body parts treated under the speciality of gynaecology need to see a gynecologist? How on earth could they be referred to one and byou whom?

    would gynaecologists not have anything to offer post op mtf transexuals? (I don't know enough about the functioning of a 'neo-vagina' to answer that one...)


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,398 ✭✭✭StinkyMunkey


    Correct me if I'm wrong, but a gynaecologist is trained in dealing with a woman's vagina....!

    A trans person who was a male and now identifies as female doesn't have a vagina! They essentially have a penis turned inside out.

    By all means go see a specialist who knows what they are doing and is trained in dealing with a trans persons body modifications.

    But go **** right off strolling into a gynaecologist and demanding to be seen, you don't have a vagina and never will you twat.

    Yanniv though still retains their male physiology, and therefore could only wish to waste a gynaecologists time for their own amusement.

    Seems very odd that all these things keep happening to the one person..................

    Men don’t need a gynaecologist. Yanniv is a man. So doesn’t need the gynaecologist. This really is neither difficult or complicated.

    she's still, eh, 'anatomically intact', as far as I know


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,551 ✭✭✭✭osarusan


    I can understand a gynecologist consulting with the surgery team from the perspective of aesthetics or whatever, but this is a very specialist area which will need experts in the field of transitioning.

    I cannot think of any reason to visit a 'usual' gynecologist, other than to continue the tradition of sh!t-stirring and suing.



    Getting referred to this particular gynecologist who then refused to deal with them would be odd though, if true.

    it’s a psychologist he needs not a gynaecologist


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,474 ✭✭✭Obvious Desperate Breakfasts


    Gynaecology is the branch of medicine to do with breasts and female reproductive parts. Anyone who doesn’t have these structures has no need for one.

    Well, you’re not entirely wrong, but a gynaecologist is trained with knowledge of the human reproductive system, both male and female. That’s the entirety of the human reproductive system, they wouldn’t just be familiar with the female vagina.

    They would also be involved in research like fertility treatments and uterine transplants -


    Uterine transplantation in transgender women


    None of which applies in this particular case, but the point I’m making is that gynaecologists aren’t limited to examining or treating conditions solely related to the female vagina.

    This person needs to be taken out of the public eye, it's an embarrassment.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 79 ✭✭Blind Eagle


    This fella is just an attention seeker.

    I love that people either didn't read or didn't care about this bit:

    "Gynaecologists form a part of the multidisciplinary team who engage with transgender and non‐binary patients, either as part of the transition stage performing surgery or managing pre‐ or post‐transition gynaecological problems."

    And just lump in with this person could have not business here... while admiting they know eff all about it. But still have a go.

    What a bunch of hateful people you are.

    It seems Gynaecologists are a part of the transgender transformation, just this one has refused to be.

    No, this person is out to cause more businesses to have to shut down unnecessarily.

    He. He is anatomically intact. Even if he wasn’t then he’d still be a man.

    Uterine transplantation in transgender women

    Jesus, i never realised that was even close to being a thing,
    Conclusion
    Despite a number of anatomical, hormonal, fertility, and obstetric considerations that require consideration, there is no overwhelming clinical argument against performing UTx [uterine transplantation] as part of GRS [gender reassignment surgery]. However, the increased radicality associated with the retrieval operation, including a longer vaginal cuff and more extensive ligamentous dissection, potentially necessitates the use of deceased donors. Alternatively, F2M transgender men may offer an alternative donor pool should they accept the increased risk compared with standard hysterectomy. Prior to undertaking UTx in transgender women, further research should be undertaken including cadaveric retrieval and implantations to assess the feasibility of the anatomical considerations discussed herein....

    Hatred for this person? Absolutely and will freely admit it. A disgusting individual as seen the last time their name came up.

    That was Yaniv’s own words. Some gynaecologists might have extra training to treat transgender folks but it’s unlikely they all do. Maybe the gynaecologist didn’t want to treat somebody outside their area of expertise. If that’s the case, it’s sensible.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,394 ✭✭✭RocketRaccoon


    so you aren't taking the case as is. Cool.

    I'm seeing it for exactly what it is. A disgusting person trying to get attention and a business closed down. Just like the beauty salons before, this gynaecologist is well within their rights to say no to treating a person with a cock and balls.


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,012 ✭✭✭✭Mitch Connor


    That was Yaniv’s own words.

    and a quick google would back up Gynaecologists being a valid part of pre-and-post op transgender transformations. I thought it sensible to at least do a cursory review of some information on the need, as I have no prior knowledge. And it would be stupid, ignorant and hateful to just assume otherwise and jump in two footed with abuse. Unless you have research that would refute the need of Gynaecologists in such matters.

    If the gynaecologist doesn’t believe that a man can become a woman then they don’t have to pretend that they do. The gynaecologist probably got into gynaecology because they were interested in female medicine.
    I don’t hate anyone. I don’t believe that a man can become a woman because it’s not biologically possible. That doesn’t make me hateful.
