Following on from your stance, would you put your child on an adult ward?

But you should comment on subjects that you have a real opinion on because so think being trans is something you choose to do.

I agree; when it comes to prisons, women's refuge centres, etc. then there's a bigger debate to be had but the logic with hospitals / public bathrooms etc. is completely disjointed... I genuinely think it's based far more on people's "that ain't right!" gut reaction and very little objective rational thought has gone into considering the actual risk if there even is one. The reasoning for why it shouldn't be allowed is consistently just assumptions, worries and imaginings... not a trace of reasoned logic or statistical fact. "They might" this, "what if" that.

Would you put your child on an adult ward for an overnight stay?

Realistic hypotheticals. Not on the idea that there are going to be cackling 6ft bricklayers declaring themselves "Jenny" to touch up a mumsnet member while she's getting her gallbladder out (when they could just have trotted in during visiting hours - which are all day - to do the same thing, without having LITERALLY ALL OF THEIR PERSONAL DETAILS ON RECORD). It's ludicrous.

"Hello my name is Robert Smith, my home address is ______, here's my National Insurance number and all of my contact details, OH btw I go by Susan and would like into your female wards. What for? For rape, obviously.
It's a flawless plan and I will never get caught."

Well I doubt anyone thought that woman who was in a coma in Arizona would end up having a baby either but there you have it, strange things do happen on a very small percentage that doesn't mean we shouldnt allow for them to happen...freak accidents etc?

I'd stay with either of my children regardless of what ward they were on but yes; I would have no more problem with them being on an adult ward than a children's ward. My eldest would probably prefer it .

It's not an accurate comparison anyway because when it comes to abuse, the added risk to children from adults is coercion / naivety.

This goes against your point more than it proves it; it's highly likely that she was assaulted by a member of staff. So as I said above, the issue (when there is one) is general overall security and not which patients are or aren't admitted to the ward.

If the wards are open and properly monitored then no one can assault anyone, whether they be male, female, trans, patient, staff or visitor.

No it doesn't go against my point, it proves my point that anything can happen, you don't know that it was a staff member either

It's highly likely to have been a staff member and staff members are being investigated. But maybe it was a transexual in the next room, faking a coma, but secretly sneaking around at night to attack people.

It goes against your point because restricting which patients are or aren't allowed on the ward would have made ZERO difference in this case... whereas making sure that the ward was generally safe and secure by being open / transparent / monitored would have stopped it from happening.

It’s like a vegetarian being afraid of someone who eats meat, well they eat meat so they might eat me.

Better not take the chance.

Most people in hospital wards, I think I'm fright in saying, will be older people, the elderly and frail. **** them, eh? What do they matter.

No penises on female only wards. The only exception should be, in my opinion, is for transwomen who are in the process but have not yet had surgery.

The elderly and frail will be on geriatric wards so this argument is moot; it's about gender not people self-IDing as a pensioner.

I guess the issue is or maybe the question I suppose, does allowing self IDing in this situation allow it in all situations? as in is it a rule specific to just hospitals or if it's allowed in Hospitals does that mean it's allowed everywhere including places where it's very possible it would be abused like Prisons?

Firstly, this argument is NOT moot until you've seen my local hospital, and hospitals across the country.

No one's talking about people self-IDing as pensioners. Not sure how you could have reached that conclusion from what I said.

It's obvious you are not able to discuss this with me TS.

I don't know, Niamh. We should probably ask a man.

Where's Vicky? She's always so eloquent on this subject...
