Sorry. When posting before, I couldn't remember the term/source for the 'hysterectomy' comment.
It stems from the "TERF" camp, "trans-exclusionary radical feminist".
One of their arguments is that if a person doesn't have a 'uterus' then it isn't a woman. Or even if they don't 'menstruate' then they are not women.
Which kind of begs the question, what about women that have had hysterectomies', or are older. The really radical side feminist seem to ignore that their arguments also leave out a lot of traditional 'women'.
This was my reason for the response to original poster. Their tone seemed to indicate a similar line of reasoning.
