On a web page dedicated to cervical cancer, the Canadian Cancer Society is apologizing for referring to the cervix by its technical name rather than euphemisms such as "front hole."
The agency also conceded that "men can have these body parts too."
"Trans, non-binary and gender-diverse people face significant barriers to accessing healthcare and are less likely than cisgender people to be screened for cancer," wrote the Canadian Cancer Society in a page on cervical cancer screening for LGBTQ people.
In a "words matter" section on the organization's official website, the Canadian Cancer Society atoned for the fact that some non-binary and transgender people might find the term "cervix" offensive and preferred to use the term "front hole" to refer to female genitalia.
"We recognize that many trans men and non-binary people may have mixed feelings about or feel distanced from words like 'cervix.' 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," the Canadian Cancer Society wrote.
True North reached out to the Canadian Cancer Society for comment but did not receive a response.
Women's rights activists argue that the terminology is both objectifying and derogatory. British gender-critical writer Julie Burchill accused LGBT activists of erasing women by adopting the terms.
"Both 'bonus hole' and 'front hole' are recommended as trans-friendly alternatives to vagina. Trans ideologues have long tried to erase or appropriate any word that is specific to females – from woman to mother and now vagina. And they have gained a foothold in our schools and in our media. Now gynaecological-health providers are swallowing the stupid pills, too," argued Burchill in a 2023 essay published to Spiked.
The term "front hole" and "bonus hole" have been popularized by LGBTQ activists as a replacement for the biologically correct term "vagina."
In 2022, controversy erupted after the Boston Children's Hospital used the term. Other organizations dedicated to women's health have also adopted the offensive term.
"A transgender male teen may still have a vagina. He won't call it a vagina. He may use the term 'front hole' or a different term," said Dr. Elizabeth Boskey in a video by the hospital.
Us men are never labeled "testicle-havers" and our anatomy is never rebranded with "gender-neutral" Orwellian newspeak. That's because transgenderism, at its core, is about erasing women.

I try to make myself as ugly as possible, and that mugshot was taken after spending several months in solitary confinement. And, yet, it still looks better than a who uses heavy makeup and beauty filters.

The army is falling apart, china and Russia are encroaching on the arctic, our minerals are being bought up by foreigners, all our industry leaders get poached by the USA, the quality of life is dropping, housing is fricked, healthcare is fricked and we just gave 56 billion extra to the natives
But at least we didn't imply only women have a cervix

Heck's sake, it's not the vagina, it's the cervix. You can be as non-binary as you want, it's still your cervix that you are getting checked for cervical cancer. If you can't handle the fact that you have female biology but you're really a man/not a woman/both genders/all genders, then get a darn hysterectomy. What do they call their uterus, their "inside space"?

Trans "men" are largely self-hating women. "Non-binary" people are largely just attention-seekers eager to be seen as special snowflakes despite being normal heterosexuals.

Despite what bitter incel neckbeards might think, women are not one monolithic hivemind, and no woman with a functioning brain wants these perverts in women's private spaces.

Imagine what your grandmother would think if she saw the shit you were posting. Do you think she would love how you spend your days laughing at the misfortune of others? If you all just applied yourself, maybe, just possibly, one day you will reach the potential that all your elementary school teachers talked about. Until then, keep shitposting your life away, and try to feel secure in the knowledge that at least you don't lose your shit on the internet.
