Major medical group expresses skepticism about sex-change surgeries for kids.
A major medical organization in the United States has expressed skepticism about the long-term effects of body-mutilating sex-change procedures performed on minors.
In a thread posted to X Monday, Leor Sapir of the conservative think-tank The Manhattan Institute noted, “The American Society of Plastic Surgeons, an organization representing 92% of all board-certified plastic surgeons in the U.S., becomes the first major medical association to break from the consensus over ‘gender-affirming care’ for minors.”
The term gender-affirming care is a euphemism used to describe irreversible puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones and elective surgical body disfigurement, such as castration for boys and double mastectomy and phalloplasty for girls that exhibit confusion about their sex. CP.
