    Haha, that is awesome. But this may be the way to fix the issue of biological males competing in women's sports. Instead of calling it "women's" sports, we will call it "individuals with a cervix" sports.

    I am going to try to get in the habit of not using the word "women" and instead use the term "individuals with a cervix" when referring to the fairer sex.

    Looks to me like CNN was retweeting the American Cancer Society, an organization that has done so much good in the world that I will not berate them for calling me an "individual with a cervix."

    I call bee ess on your click-bait title. Also, your source is a far right wing, biased source.

    And for women who have had "the works" surgically removed? What's your plan for that?

    Title came directly from the article. Unlike others that create a title I use the source material.

    Would "individuals with, or have had, a cervix" work?

    Wow, chosen stupidity. Kinda reminds me of one of those old Hee Haw skits....just plain silly for the sake of relief. The left though has completely abandoned common sense and become free, as in permanently disassociated from reality with no plan for re entry.

    From the American Cancer Society site

    The American Cancer Society (ACS) has updated its guidelines for cervical cancer screening. The new guidelines are for people with a cervix with an average risk of cervical cancer.

    The 2020 guidelines also recommend that people older than age 65 with a cervix stop being screened as long as they’ve had 10 years of regular screening with normal results. Otherwise, they should continue to be screened until they do.


    Those who have had their cervix removed, such as from a hysterectomy, don’t need screening as long as the surgery was done for reasons not related to cervical cancer or serious pre-cancer.

    They probably meant individuals as opposed to say elephants or mice.

    "people with a cervix" you know WOMEN. "Those who have had their cervix removed" maybe "WOMEN who have had their cervix removed" would have been better but not PC. ACS succumbing to the PC gender fluidity mindset is a shame.

    No I didn't. PC BS pandering to the mentally ill isn't something I care for.

    Biological women can have their cervix removed during a hysterectomy.

    Oh ya, righties need someone to do the heavy work...and it's the only value they place on women....which , contrary to what they think, doesn't reflect well on their intellect.

    CNN has fallen in line with, and embraced the crazy direction the queer community has taken us all. It's getting worse, anyone can just say they are a woman, and we must treat them as one, and the opposite is true also.

    It's gotten so bad, the LGB, of the LGBT, are breaking off and forming the LGB.

    Check this out: From the United Nations:

    "Trans women are women at the end of the day. Every woman is a woman. Women are multifaceted, intergenerational, international. They are limitless, formless ... women are the world.” UN Women - Twitter

    so women are formless?

    Women aren’t really women anymore. Just people with feelings.
