Why are Cons so concerned about Cailtlyn?
Exactly. Why indeed. To be so concerned and obsessed with what another adult human being does, something which has no effect or influence on one's own life, is to be nearly as mentally ill as they accuse Jenner of being.
There are far more important and significant things in this world and this life to be concerned about.
I think this is something to be concerned about. This pseudo psychiatry is not helping these people in any way. Our psychiatric association has been hijacked by political correctness and they continue to advise these gender confused individuals to have surgery, as if it will cure their disease. It does not. It is extremely risky and dangerous and doesn't seem to help. THAT is my biggest concern. The lies being pumped out. We are being lied to, and that is certainly cause for concern. The psychiatrists seem to look at the "easy" way to supposedly "treat" these patients. Gender reassignment surgery is NOT treatment. IT is mutilation and
VERY risky.
20 regret changing genders over 40 attempt suicide and even after surgery a large number remain traumatized - Sex Change Info
20% regret changing genders, over 40% attempt suicide, and even after surgery a large number remain traumatized
Hoping to have success with sex change surgery is like Russian roulette. You could be the lucky one, but reports show the risks are high and death is a strong possibility.
For 35 years serious questions have been raised about the overall long term success of changing genders.
Today we look at a report from
The Guardian (UK) from July 2004 that included a review of more than 100 international medical studies of post-operative transgenders by the University of Birmingham aggressive research intelligence facility. They found "no robust scientific evidence that gender reassignment surgery is clinically effective." Seeing that they reviewed not just one study but 100 international studies makes this report alarming.
In my view, this shows that failure comes all too often for transgenders and it is so unnecessary.
The Guardian reports:
- After gender reassignment, there's still a large number of people who had the surgery but remain traumatized - often to the point of committing suicide.
- Research from the US and Holland suggests that up to a fifth (20%) of patients regret changing sex. Sex changes are not effective say researchers Society The Guardian
Thirty-five years ago, in 1979, uncertainty about gender change success was surfacing. At Johns Hopkins Hospital concerns about the reported success rates of changing genders and whether Dr. Money had been falsifying the reports of sex change success prompted a review. Dr. Paul Mc Hugh commissioned Dr. Meyer to study post-operative transsexuals from the Johns Hopkins Gender Identity Clinic program. Dr. Meyer's results were far different than Money’s reports of success a decade earlier and also validated the concerns regarding Dr. Money and his reports. Dr. Meyer said, “To say that this type of surgery cures psychiatric disturbance is incorrect.” As a result of studying the results of Hopkins patients, Hopkins closed its gender clinic and university-based gender clinics around the country began to close.

Also in 1979, Dr. Ihlenfeld, a former associate of Dr. Harry Benjamin, told an audience extreme care should be given in using cross gender hormones because 80% of patents who want to change their sex shouldn't do it. "There is too much unhappiness among people who have had the surgery," he said. "Too many of them end as suicides."
