I feel like a woman!

posted in Sexuality, Society by themaiden |

Oh, wait. Now I don’t and its your fault Mr. Surgeon that I don’t have my pee-pee anymore.

Take a look at about minute 02:00 of ‘Sex Change Surgery Regret‘ and here an MTF then FTM transexual assert that the ultimate responsibility for his– um, now ‘his’… again– decision to have a sex change operation lies with the surgeon.

Like hell it does.

“Whose choice is it at the end of the day?” our anti-hero asks. “At the end of the day the choice is with the man who is holding the scalpel.”

What? I’m sorry, do you mean that the man who jumps through hoops for years in order to get to that operating room and have his penis chopped off is not in any way responsible? Bullshit.

“Nobody has got a gun to his head and forcing him to do this,” our victim continues.

You have got to be joking? Really, this is absurd.

“He’s the one who makes the ultimate choice. Now he’d better be sure he’s got it right.”

No. No. It doesn’t work that way and I don’t care how it works legally. If the law sides with this guy the law has it wrong, assuming he can’t proves some real malpractice like gross manipulation. Sorry.

I’ve made a few decisions in my life that have had awful consequences. Having my penis cut off might have been less damaging. Do I sue someone for not stopping me? Do I sue someone for not declaring me crazy and forcing me into therapy? Really? Do I?

    Absolutely stupid. It’s not the surgeon’s fault for doing his job, it’s the person who made the choice to have the surgery done to him/her. People love to blame everyone but themselves.

    He had the surgery done when he was 21. There are very few 21 year olds who are mature enough to make a decision on this scale. He also seems to be easily manipulated. It’s an unfortunate situation, exacerbated by a group of people philosophically opposed to the idea of gender re-assignment. The poor guy would have been better off just being a drag queen for a few years. It is easier to change a wardrobe than genitals. surgery
