|    Transgender woman's op-ed regretting sex    |

      From: johnny@invalid.net              By Brandon Gillespie       Published April 12, 2022              A transgender woman who had sex re-assignment surgery as a teenager is       warning those considering a similar operation to explore the world       inhabiting their body "as it is" before "permanently altering" it.              In a Monday op-ed for The Washington Post headlined, "What I wish I'd       known when I was 19 and had sex re-assignment surgery," software       developer Corinna Cohn expressed regret over her transition from being       a man to a woman, explaining she wasn't old enough to make such a       drastic decision and that it committed her "to a lifetime apart" from       her peers.              "When I was 19, I had surgery for sex reassignment, or what is now       called gender affirmation surgery," Cohn wrote. "In terms of my       priorities and interests today, that younger incarnation of myself       might as well have been a different person — yet that was the person       who committed me to a lifetime set apart from my peers."              https://www.foxnews.com/media/transgender-woman-laments-sex-re-a       signment-surgery-reaction              I wonder how many people regret having sex change operations?              When I was 19 I thought I knew everything, a few years later I       discovered I didn't know shit.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
