God the doctors back then, were barbaric.
As barbaric as that ad seems today, imagine how barbaric we will seem a hundred years from now when people see how we used to routinely mutilate the sex genitals of humans - even children - under the guise of “transgenderism”.

If you read up on the history of medicine, you will discover that it is has long been mostly quackery with a little bit of science mixed in. As time passed, more science got in, but there is still a lot of quackery in the mix, as in "masking" and "gene therapy" being called a "vaccine."
