What an ignorant, hateful statement! My sister mutilated her body and had both of her breasts removed. Should she have to pay for it? You should think before you spout such idiocy.
Just about all of us know at least one woman who has had one or more breasts removed due to cancer. This IS NOT mutilation, this is life saving surgery.
I'm somewhat shocked to be called "ignorant and hateful" because you cannot distinguish between a sex change operation and cancer surgery.
OMG! What a freakish viewpoint! There is a difference between cancer and a sex change operation. Wow! What a freak!
Please tell me that’s sarcasm. Given the article, I don’t see how one could think breast cancer patients were being discussed
I have news for you. It’s not news to most people, but you’re an exception. Having her breasts removed did not turn your sister into a man.
Um, this isn’t about cancer treatment. This is about Mr James Smith going to the hospital to be castrated, have a cavity dug into his pelvis, have his penis torn apart and molded into the cavity, receive breast implants, get shot up full of female hormones, leave the hospital, get his name changed to Jamie, and then ask the taxpayer to pay the bill for the whole deal.

The ‘mutilation’ here would be that of males chopping the stock.
There’s no one here that would jeer, mock, or otherwise insult someone who suffers from breast cancer. Sorry to hear about your sister’s suffering. Many of us here are in one way or another affected by this form of cancer.
Purpleraine, did your sister have necessary surgery due to cancer or risk thereof, or did she have voluntary surgery to change her gender appearance? This thread is about the latter, not the former. Please explain your objection since it is so vehement. No one was talking about cancer, did you misunderstand. Wagglebee is good people in my book.
My mom had a masectomy. It wasn’t something she wanted to have. It was something the doctor deemed would be best for her health. Wagglebee was referring to people who voluntarily mutilate their bodies to look like the opposite sex.
