Am I missing something here?

"The row erupted when Dr Poen responded to a tweet by a Twitter user called 'Lilo the Autistic Queer' which read: 'Not everyone who menstruates is female. Not everyone who is female menstruates. Let's shift our language.'"

I hate to break it to 'Lilo the Autistic Queer', but the ONLY people who menstruate are women.

On a scale on 1 to 10, with 10 being you're a total ***, how much of a *** is 'Lilo the Autistic Queer'?

It's down to some confusing the meaning of male and female. Sad really. Seems a modern mental failing.
Perhaps "Lilo" gets nose bleeds.
i suspect that lilo is full of hot air ...
The cops will be around to 'check your thinking', desky.
Deskdiary seems to be assuming that all women are cisgender women and all men are cisgender men. That completely ignores people who are transgender or non-binary.

^^^quite Spice.

I'm obviously not accepting of the fact that people other than women menstruate.

The world is truly going mad.

"cisgender"

Translation = normal.
I'm confused by it all.

Am I allowed to use the word 'normal' nowadays?

What will be the new fad after this?
Females with itchy scrotums?
You weren't concerned about what words you used when you typed the OP.

I knew a lady..a very heavy smoker.. who did'nt menstruate..she just had the occasional fall of soot.
What a bloody mess
Canary, that made me chuckle far more than it should've!
The easy way around it is to state "only those born female menstruate". Undeniably true, and hopefully enough to keep the rainbow coloured happy.
honestly....does this matter?
I agree, Woof, it doesn't matter.
In which case why did "Lilo the Autistic Queer" bring it up ? I suspect it matters to Dr Eva Poen who is being got at for her honesty.
//Let's shift our language.//

No, let’s not shift our language. Let’s tell it like it is. Men in drag are not women. Men in frocks are not ‘she’, and men, regardless of what bits have been lopped off and modified are not women.

Woofgang/ummmm, yes, it does matter.
Not to me it doesn't, Naomi. my biggest concern at the moment is my cat keeps trying to eat my crisps!
