I am so shocked by this and feel it is completely unaccepatable for a self-identified transsexual to attempt an intimate smear test on a woman who had requested a female nurse to perform the examination.
Women should always have the right to object without being or feeling labelled. The poor woman had to cancel what is already a traumatic exam in itself without the added pressure of being put is such a position. This is likely to reduce the uptake of cervical cancer monitoring by many women due to such appalling treatment. Shame on the NHS.
It is not the responsibility of women to endure such intrusion in order to validate someone else’s identity.
