Leading medical journal apologizes for referring to women as 'bodies with vaginas'
| "Have y' shot manay Lancet covers, Uncle Reggie?" | [WASHINGTONTIMES] The editor of The Lancet, a leading medical journal in Britannia, has apologized for a pro-transgender cover about menstruation that referred to women as "bodies with vaginas."
"Oh, sorry 'n' all that! Meant to say 'creatures' with vaginas!"
Editor-in-chief Richard Horton issued the apology this week in response to blowback from feminist and medical groups against the journal’s effort to be inclusive of biologically born men who now identify as women.
"In this instance, we have conveyed the impression that we have dehumanized and marginalized women," Mr. Horton said in a statement. "Those who read The Lancet regularly will understand that this would never have been our intention."
