Sorry. I keep forgetting to add the article link:

So a transgender man....hmmm.....now which way does this go. Is that a male going female, or a female going male? (oh, never mind.....)
The patient is a mentally ill female who thinks she’s male. Forgive me if my grasp of reality offends those who believe in nonsense, like calling a woman a man.
He showed up at the hospital with an inflamed uterus, and then was outraged that the medical staff treated him as a woman.
I can't find fault with the treatment (from what the article says) so i imagine this will become part of the headlines soon to mesh with all the racist killings of Blacks and the blatant anti-you-can-be-any-sex-or-sexual-hedonist-you-want-to-be-and-should-have-to bear-none-of-the-responsibility-for-your-choices-and-attendant-diseases meme -- a real one-two-punch against normals and Whites (who will be determined to also be the biggest offenders against the "sexually-diverse".
easy solution, just have all the wrist band simply state either penis or vagina.
ROFL
Not one ounce of common sense here.
When I Googled the plaintiff's name "Jakob Tiarnan Rumble" I found no coverage of this story in any MSM source, all were sources catering to homosexuals and transsexuals, or lawsuit tracking services.
It would appear that this plaintiff succeeded in getting his/her lawsuit referred for a trial by a federal judge, and this news is getting pumped across the internet in a number of ways.
Chromosomes don’t lie. Whatever type a person is that is what their gender is from nature and not subject to change.
This exemplifies the total idiocy of modern “gender identification.”
From the story, I gather that the patient, who self-identified as a male, had female sex organs that were very painfully inflamed in some way: possibly something like genital herpes, a Bartholin’s gland abscess, or some other vulvar/cervical/vaginal infection.
The simple answer to this problem is to identify on the medical record BOTH the patient’s BIOLOGICAL SEX (for medical purposes, when sex differences in disease states are important, they almost always depend on genetic sex and not gender identity) and, if applicable, GENDER IDENTITY (likely more important for psycho-social medical problems).
A more difficult problem might actually be WHERE to physically put the patient in the hospital: many patients might object to sharing a room with a transgendered patient. A private room could be authorized for medical purposes, as we do for those on some form of isolation for communicable diseases, but I would expect pushback from both sides.
Reminds me of when my adult-sized son 16 year-old was put on the pediatric service (because he was younger than 18) when he had surgery to repair a shattered clavicle: he was sharing a room with a crying 8 year-old. On Post-Op Day #1, he simply said, “DAD, GET ME OUT OF HERE!!!!”
SOP for emergency rooms.

Only in the fetid, twisted delusions of the politically correct double-plus-good group-thinkers does such a creature exist.
This is what passes for “torture” in the demented minds of Obamabots: “ . . . behaved unfriendly toward him.”
They should have put her(him) to sleep and when she(he) woke told her (him) that there was nothing they could do to save her (his) penis, and they had to cut it off. Then they could proceed as necessary.
How is this consistent with the complaint also says the doctor “jabbed at the patients inflamed genitals?”
Clearly this inflamation was one of those conditions. And whatever you call the appendages added to this female during her surgical mutilation/transformation, their inflamed condition DOES NOT “affect people of any sex or gender.
Someone should have told her to “suck it up buttercup” you know the whole “take it like a man” routine and be damn glad they saved her life.
