Drawing parallels to the mutilation of gender-confused individuals carried out in the name of transgender ideology, a Quebec man has recently undergone surgery to have two healthy fingers amputated as a way to relieve distress caused by “body integrity dysphoria.”

According to a March 27 Clinical Case report by Dr. Nadia Nadeau of the department of psychiatry at Université Laval, a surgeon has removed a 20-year-old Quebec man’s two healthy fingers because he believed they did not belong to him.

Quite a few doctors need to be executed.

I seem to recall reading somewhere a while back that that was removed from the curriculum.

“was able to pursue the life he envisioned as a complete human being without those two fingers bothering him.”

how complete of a human are you, when you are missing 2 digits?

Dont even bring up, his guitar playing is suffering quite a bit

That is the parallel with gender dysphoria. I have read about this for some time. Usually the person mutilates the offending appendage or limb so it has to be removed, because no surgeon would lop off a healthy body part. Until now.

So . . . I have heard of the “ten finger discount”. Health care is “free” in Canada, so I guess he got a two finger discount.

I guess that answers the question of whether doctors will remove other body parts from a mentally ill person because they “feel wrong”.

I’ve heard of this. I read years ago a piece about a guy in Scotland who was absolutely *convinced* that one of his legs didn’t belong to him and then convinced a surgeon to remove it.
