Trans Woman Sues OB-GYN After Being Denied Treatment for Male Genitalia

Jessica Simpson (formerly Jessica Yaniv), a Canadian transgender activist, claims she was discriminated against after a gynecologist allegedly told her, “we don’t serve transgender patients.” Simpson, who still has male genitalia, said she felt “shocked and hurt,” and filed a complaint with the College of Physicians and Surgeons of British Columbia in 2019. No public update has been issued since.

This isn’t the first time Simpson has sparked controversy. In 2018, she filed human rights complaints against several estheticians who refused to perform a Brazilian wax on her male genitalia. She sought up to $15,000 from each, but the court ruled against her, stating she had shown hostility toward certain racial and cultural groups. The estheticians, mostly minority women working from home, were not trained to work with male anatomy and some had to close their businesses.
