    That seems reasonable. I’m a transsexual female with female hormones and female genitalia, I was AMAB and I will be in the female ward along with my fellow females, thanks!

      You are not assigned male, you fall in the sex category male at birth. Sex is immutable and cannot be changed unlike gender, therefore in wards based on sex you will be put in a male ward. Unless as the article lays out you get your own room, which is the likely and most preferred outcome for all inpatients.

        If you knew as much as you try to put on about biological sex, you’d know that’s its far, far more complicated than “male or female” and there are plenty of people who are assigned one thing at birth which doesn’t factually align with their biological sex. So yes, it is an assignment.

        I fail to see how a rational inpatient would give the slightest fuck if the girl a bed over from them had a cock when they were born so i dont know what preferred outcome they have in this, and I can speak as a trans person to the fact that it would not be my preferred outcome to be singled out and put in my own room. I’d choose it over being in the male ward, but its not my “preferred outcome”.
