[Margaret Pilkington]

Well, it is because it is the thing to do to satisfy diversity.
But my concerns are for the young girls getting advice from a MAN…..yes, I know that there are male nurses, male gynaecologists, but in the main these deal with women who have life experience.
If I were a young girl…say 12 or 13 I think I would be mortified to discuss something so private with a man.
A man who knows nothing of what it is like to have bloating, cramps and the variable moods that can be experienced by girls when they start their periods.
Anyone who menstruates is a woman….regardless of how they identify.
