A top cancer charity has apologized for using the word 'cervix' instead of trans-friendly 'front hole.'
The Canadian Cancer Society, which is run by philanthropist Andrea Seale, acknowledged the LGBTQ+ community on a webpage dedicated to cervical cancer, under the page's 'words matter' section.
The non-profit said that 'many' non-binary people and transgender men have 'mixed feelings' or 'feel distanced' from the term cervix.
'We recognize that many trans men and non-binary people may have mixed feelings about or feel distanced from words like "cervix",' the statement said.
'You may prefer other words, such as “front hole.” We recognize the limitations of the words we’ve used while also acknowledging the need for simplicity. Another reason we use words like “cervix” is to normalize the reality that men can have these body parts too.'

I wish a national pollster would ask which of the two terms people find offensive.
To hell with them!
Only the Left could be this far off.
It’s not a hole and it’s not in the “front”.
The perfection of wrongness. And who decreed THAT term was to be used and by what power? They are just toying with the people too dumb to ignore them now.
It is already happening:
The word “assigned” implies there is an element of judgment involved in the determination of sex at birth. It’s a bogus characterization as the visual confirmation of sex organs combined with a blood test affirming with certainty whether the individual is a male or female makes the final determination a confirmed scientific fact.

Once upon a time a medical student would be failed for writing pee pee or weenie or any non scientific terms on a patient’s chart. Now it’s required.
Absolutely. See my post #22!
The world is insane!
SOOOOOOOOOOOO-—WHAT IS THE “BACK HOLE”?????
Anterior orifice?
Grown up children.
The Cervix is located in the "Middle hole".
If you are looking for the cervix in the front hole you need to check out a copy of Gray's. And I am not talking about the Z Grade TV show about Bed Hopping.
I, too, thought this was the Bee when I first read the headline.
It’s Canada. The last person with an IQ above 50 please turn off the lights.
END. THIS. NOW.
Absurd.
These people watched too much Ren and Stimpy when they were younger. That’s where I learned passing gas was referred to as underleg noises.
Please be a joke. For the sake of my great grandfather’s spirit that caught for Canada at first battle of Ypres and beat back the Germans who used gas on them. The Canadians were some of the toughest allies during two world wars. PLEASE say this is a joke.
Anyone using the term “front hole” needs a frontal lobotomy.
Men cannot have a cervix.
Women cannot have a prostate.
Truth matters.
