        Yet again the BBC pandering to the whinging of a miniscule, narcissistic minority. The lunatics have truly taken over the Asylum that is the BBC ,,,

        No time for this at all. The NHS has enough issues to deal with without this. If you want it, you fund it all including doctors appointments!

        Hmm, correct me if I'm wrong. I always thought that you're either male or female. This is just becoming ridiculous.

        We want we want. It’s all you hear nowadays from minority groups. When they also say equality what they really mean is preferential treatment.

        What’s most annoying is you cannot ask questions or comment on opinions now without being branded a racist or sexist or anti this or anti that it discourages open and honest discussion of matters. You are either in the right or your not there’s no ground to discuss anything now

        I am so sick of this topic. Hormone treatments and genital surgery should not be allowed at any cost either by NHS or privately except for those born as hermaphrodites. Non binary and all these other labels are unnecessary.

        You can call yourself anything you like but you can only be male or female. It's a simple matter of XX or XY chromosomes.
