Biologically trans women are trans women, they have very little in common with cis men other than chromosomes, they're not the same as cis women entirely but have far more in common with them.

The average trans woman has had her T levels nuked for decades, usually below cis women levels and E levels same as a cis woman, their bodies are completely different including their genitalia most of the time.

As far as the actual medical truth of the matter we are not cis men, I don't have to worry about testicular, prostate or penile cancers but I do have to worry quite a bit more than a cis man about breast cancer for example.

General community for news/discussion in the UK.

Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.

Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
