I disagree. Yes he was young and dumb, but his own mother took him there, consented and appears to be ok with it.

IT made it’s decision, let IT live with it. Too much of folks blaming someone else for the predicament.

I’m thinking this mother isn’t any different than the one that thought it was ok to let her 11yr old, cross dressing boy dance in a strip club.

Hate to even say this, but there should be an age limit on when this whole process can begin. Young kids and teenagers should not legally be allowed to do any of this.

Interesting. Go through the surgery twice. I know there’s a doctor at John’s Hopkins who has studied the topic, extensively, and comes up with the same conclusions.

The heart of the problem is the child’s own depression, mental illness, and above all, the adults around him abdicating all responsibility for his well-being.

Pretty much nailed it, right there. The adults around him being the most culpable, IMHO. As for the school, all it would have taken is a meeting with the administration, especially these days and the problem would have been handled, if it even existed.

And the modern castrati can’t even sing.

So, this is fine, but female genital mutilation is a bad thing? Liberals need to get consistent.

Or taking him to the range to shoot a gun or go deer hunting. I’d like to meet the mother to see just how deranged she is.

I’ve heard of that. Remember John Bobbit? A penis can be reattached. It’s been done. However that I know of I’ve never heard of testes being reattached.

Chronological age never equated to having brains or common sense. Work for 15 minutes in a hospital ER and you’ll see that. There is no shortage of people in this world of any age who aren’t too stupid to be idiots. In fact the older some people get the dumber they get.

It isn’t society’s fault that these teenagers suffered harm. The blame lies with the gender clinics and the medical staff who practice there.

Like hell it isn’t! What part of society did not prevent the social construct of this being acceptable treatment? What part of socialized radical feminism attacked masculinity to the point of feminizing young boys to the point that one end of the male spectrum actually wanted to become women, and society said it’s OK and we’ll even pay for it? It damn well is society’s fault! Damn progressive, leftist society’s fault.

This sick surgery should be outlawed, let idiots go to Iran if they really want one that badly.

Pretty simple... "LIVE and LEARN!"

Yes.. it's TRUE! You can PROFIT even from STUPID decisions.

Until about age 25, emotion tends to rule. The ability to think and plan long term as opposed to “for the moment” is what seems to take until age 25 to develop. I actually saw it in myself as well as in my kids. Age 25 is when, if left on their own, people say, “What the heck am I doing with my life and, with no prodding, may start trade school on their own, etc.

I’ve seen it a lot.

No... a soldier losing a leg in combat is totally different from some stupid asshole who made a self-conscious decision to castrate himself.


I’m not talking about the cause. I’m talking about the effect. Make it a leg lost in an auto accident, if you want. I’m simply saying actions have consequences. And regarding the soldier, sometimes it was worth it. But the effect is still the effect.

I joined the Marine Corps at seventeen.
Delayed development of the ability to plan does not at all come from the brain not being developed.

It comes from not being made to shoulder responsibilities.
I have seen this proven over and over thousands of times, contrasting young officers and non commissioned officers with private first classes and lance corporals who are the same age.

Actually, it is not fully developed. Of course, it varies from person to person, regarding age, but tha skill I’m talking about is the ability to think about the long term consequences of decisions. Before age 25, humans tend to live more in the moment and make decisions based more on emotion.

It’s not that one is “stupid” until they are 25. It’s more like “a baby is not fully developed in the womb until a full 9 months is done. We have plenty of people running around that are fully developed and just like every body else, even though they were born at 8 months or even less. They’re completely normal. Their birth happened early is all.

Same with people that make major decisions before 25. Sometimes it is because others force them (parents make you go to college). Sometimes it is because they are taught, from a very early age, to prepare for the future. But the point at which that ability is fully developed is around age 25.

Do you mean this doctor at Johns Hopkins can rebuilt penises? If that is the case, he is going to have a lot of business from relatively normal guys (if you know what I mean).
