How many examples can we give about how all the "be kind" messaging is only really for us natal females? Men have prostate cancer, but people with a cervix have cervical cancer. Who knows if I have a cervix and who can I ask and not feel dumb for not knowing?

"So where does “be kind” take us if we think our thoughts through to the end?

It takes us to a land, where in a quest to prioritize the feelings of men, women and mothers no longer exist; where relationships disappear, where the connections between what we do and who we are, are considered less important than an ideology and where even prestigious medical journals feel it appropriate to refer not to women, but to “people with vaginas”. Nope, I don’t see any kindness being beneficial here to anyone. Count me out." https://lucyleader.substack.com/p/erasing-mothers-erasing-relationships
