There is a Swedish peer-reviewed PubMed study that somewhat contradicts this notion that after “gender-affirming surgery” there are long term health benefits (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21364939/). Some who have “bottom surgery” done have changes to their sexual sensation, or trouble with bladder emptying.

Only 25% of “transgender and nonbinary” people choose gender affirmation surgery, that does not sound very committed. The percentage of this same group attempting or completing suicide is far more likely.

I will give this article some credit; they at least encourage and talk a lot about working with a mental health provider. This should be a licensed/certified, educated, unbiased therapist.

Direct Quote:

The term transgender describes someone whose gender identity is different than their sex assigned at birth. Gender nonbinary describes someone whose gender identity does not fit within traditional female or male categories. People in either of these categories may opt for gender affirmation medical treatment or surgery.

Surveys report that around 1 in 4 transgender and nonbinary people choose gender affirmation surgery.

What are the bene ts of gender a rmation surgery?

Research has shown that transgender individuals who choose gender-affirming surgery experience long-term mental health benefits. In one study, a person’s odds of needing mental health treatment declined by 8% each year after the gender-affirming procedure.

Different procedures carry different risks. For example, individuals who have bottom surgery may have changes to their sexual sensation, or trouble with bladder emptying.

In general, significant complications are rare, as long as an experienced surgeon is performing the procedure.With any surgery, there is a small risk of complications, including: Bleeding. Infection. Side effects of anesthesia.

I hope none of it has ever leaked in her bag.

  https://time.com/4297996/hillary-clinton-hot-sauce/ I hope none of it has ever leaked in her bag. The Time tries to cover for Hillary Clinton boasting about the health benefits and her collection of hot sauces. If that is true why not say that in the interview? Actually after this comment she was told people are going to think you’re pandering to the black community where she said “is it working”. Direct Quotes: In a radio interview Monday morning, Hillary Clinton was asked to name something she carries with her everywhere she goes. “Hot sauce,” she answered. “Yeah.” The Clinton campaign has confirmed to TIME the type and brand of hot sauce now toted by the Democratic front runner for the presidential nomination: Ninja Squirrel, a Sriracha from the in-house brand of Texas-based Whole Foods Market. “And we continue to carry chili flakes and jalapeños around,” says Clinton campaign spokesperson Nick Merrill.
