The legislation comes as part of the government’s ‘Levelling Up’ scheme and is part of its “wider efforts to protect single-sex spaces”. “The change comes amid dignity and privacy concerns from women and elderly people who feel they are being unfairly disadvantaged as…

Patients who received top surgery in the last 25 years had an overwhelmingly high satisfaction rate, and almost no recipients regretted it, according to a new study.

The median satisfaction score was five out of five and the median regret score was 0 out of 100. These scores indicate near-perfect satisfaction and almost no regret. None of those surveyed underwent…
