That ain’t a “Miss.” What kind of a sane doctor would aid and prescribe medications in an individual’s attempts to mutilate themselves ?

[Mr Ramsbotham]

If that’s a miss, I think I’ll give it a miss.

This will, eventually, be stopped by lawsuits from the survivors of people abused in this way who commit suicide.

That's actually a good question. Johns Hopkins did some research on outcomes for sex-reassignment surgery patients. Sex reassignment surgery did not improve either short term or long term happiness for patients. It is an expensive, ghastly, and highly invasive medical procedure which does the patient no good. It's virtually the very definition of malpractice and quackery.

I don't know if there's a controlled study in which some patients were given sex reassignment surgery, and others were helped to deal with their maladjustment, but there is virtual no evidence that sex-reassignment surgery actually benefits patients. It only benefits activists, and those who wished to be seen as enlightened. The patient is not a consideration.

Medical schools do not grant degrees in wisdom, or even common sense.
