    ngl i think its often hard to tell with certainty if someone is trans or what their native genitals might be from just looking at them and so its better to be safe and ask the questions/ask if they are trans, than to miss something because of assumtions

    i in a similar way, i have been asked on multiple occasions whether i am preggers, before getting x-rayed (or maybe i’m just too fat? ;w;)

      I’m a cis man (hope it’s ok that I comment here) but I had to sign a form in high school when I took accutane saying I wouldn’t get pregnant. At the time I thought it was a bit silly but it makes much more sense now.

      Everyone should be asking if you are pregnant before you get an xray. Standard and important question
