    Women who have had hysterectomies do not get cervical or uterine cancer. It's amazing this has to be explained to any adult in America.

    What if the individual with a cervix doesn't identify as a person?

    True. Then they’re a thing with a cervix. We need to account for every angle of crazy. ;)

    "Beat up"? :roflol:

    By who?

    A Bunch of RW Blogs (pushing an Anti-Trans Agenda)?

    Sounds major.:bored:

    I see no reason (whatsoever) to lend credence to the opinions of RW Bloggers (such as the ones linked in the OP).

    What is CNN's "Crime"?

    Not being Transphobic?

    Give me a break.

    CNN is free to do as they see fit.

    Ah, so not actually because you're totally in favour of the term!

    Why does the source matter? They either said this or they didn't.

    You actually think that @nra37922 was saying that people without a cervix need testing! :roflol:

    Yeah, the argument is NOT that people without a cervix aren't women. It's that people WITH a cervix are women. And I really have no idea why anyone on the left would think this is necessary, because I thought that they believed that trans women ARE women in every way. So if they referred to WOMEN instead of "people with a cervix", presumably that includes trans women.

    Yes, so 'women with a cervix' would work?

    Oh, so NOT using "individuals with a cervix" is being transphobic? :roflol:

    Nobody is saying they're NOT!

    This whole thread illustrates very well just how intellectually bankrupt conservatism has become. Nothing sandwiches with bullshit filling, it's all they have anymore.

    What does your rant have to do with my factually correct statement?

    I notice that you haven't been able to defend the usage of this LAUGHABLE term! It seems that you're totally with us! :roflol:

    What does your statement have to do with the post which you quoted in the post containing your statement?

    He failed to realize biological women can have their cervix removed. Apparently you did too. So I corrected him with the post below.

    There's nothing to defend. It's a totally correct description and completely appropriate given the context. It even mentions that people without cervixes, like men or those who have had hystrectormies, which are very common in women over 35, need not be concerned, a very good reason for the description to be careful.

    This criticism risks being insipid, usually a liberal fault, but I am sure that the conservatives will keep going on as they love to find examples of the "PC plot", wherein our FFRREEEDDOMMM is threatened every time they harmlessly start a fight by calling somebody something pejorative.

    Yeah alright, I see what you mean now. There was an assumption that anyone without a cervix is a man. I wrongly read your post as a defence of the use of this laughable term. I think you knew what he was getting at though. It's really anyone who has never had a cervix. Unless some females are born without one?

    What is the context and why is the use of the term necessary?
