Men who have had sex with another man. Thanks for calling me on it; I was mimicking the standard language I see there. Unfortunately the trans/queer-erasure remains, because the legal system tries desperately to pretend everyone fits in the nice binary boxes.
Oddly enough, here in France I see more and more mentions of transpeople, and fewer and fewer mentions of bisexual people, both in the mainstream and in LGBT media.
I’ve noticed the same, actually. However, the question of “can a trans-person legally donate blood/organs” is… well, not answered at all, to my knowledge, because they don’t fit the expected binary box of “are you a male who has had sex with another male?”
