Well realistically he could be a well-passing FTM with roids coursing through his veins, in which case we wouldn't want his blood. You can change your identification documents so easily in Scotland that just because you think you see a man in front of you and the ID says "M", it doesn't mean the person is really a man.

Refusing to answer the question is silly. The question only exists because trannies are so much more common now. If the NHS didn't ask that to everyone, trannies would slip through the cracks and waste the time and resources it would take to test their blood which would be wasted if he was a tranny who was or has ever been pregnant.

He sounds like he's just personally offended at the suggestion that he could be a tranny.

It would be ideal if transition ended, but they're already here and we're forced to deal with them by asking certain questions which are actually of medical importance. Pretending that roided-up trannies who are or have been pregnant don't go donate blood and check the "male" box, and then feeling personally offended at the questions medical professionals are forced to ask to deal with this is retarded.

No, you can’t, you need a medical diagnosis and several years of social transition. The Scottish government tried to change the law to liberalise the rules including “self ID” and that got heavily stomped on by Westminster who refused it Royal Assent, and now the Scottish government is planning on bringing a legal challenge to the veto but they’ll almost certainly lose because the Scotland Act specifically allows Westminster to veto any law that would have effects outside Scotland and this would trample on the equality legislation across the UK.

Guess I had it confused with England.

Still, the fact that trannies there are more likely to pass well supports my point.

Still wrong. The rules in England and Scotland are currently the same.

Westminster has dropped Self-ID and it’s unlikely to be brought up by the next government after what happened in Scotland with the trans rapist saga that had a hand in bringing down the First Minister.

Westminster = UK government

Scotland, Wales and Sometimes Northern Ireland have their own parliaments that are restricted to issues that only affect those countries. England didn’t get its own parliament so has to rely on Westminster doing it, even though it’s not really fair that MPs from Scotland etc get votes on English matters.

Damn getting schooled today. I still stand by my point that trannies make these questions important.

Is the question is he pregnant now or if he's ever been pregnant, because I think it's the former. It's genuinely essential that men are recorded as men when they need blood and that women how have ever been pregnant disclose that fact. Blood from women who have been pregnant can be very, very dangerous for men. And this bullshit is putting lives in danger.
