I’m about to ask an incredibly stupid question here but…what are female wards? Are, say, hospital floors divided by gender in your country? I am unfamiliar with doing that as a concept. I suppose the only sex/gender specific area of a hospital I know of is the labor and delivery department but it’s because it involves people with a uterus delivering a baby.
I already mentioned that. You wouldn’t see anyone banning people from those wards. It’s literally just for people with a uterus, no matter the gender. So it doesn’t make sense to say transgender women would be banned from the maternity ward. If a person is having a baby then they are having a baby. I am trying to understand the comment that I replied to.
Yes, but sex and gender are different things. Our government is planning to ban transgender women from female wards, for example.

OB/GYN, maternity ward.
