It’s happening differently from how I might have wanted it to. As I would have had it, the doctors and therapists who transitioned children would have had it done to them just they same as they brought upon their victims, right down to the last surgical detail.

But their bullshit is being disincentivized by a precedent-setting lawsuit, which is a victory. I’ll take it. Hey ho.

A New York jury has determined that a girl who identified as a male should be awarded $2 million after a psychologist and a surgeon used that as justification for surgical butchery.

In liberal New York!!!

Here’s the story:

22-year-old Fox Varian once identified as non-binary and male, and underwent a double mastectomy at the age of 16.

Her psychologist approved the procedure and her surgeon performed it.

Varian later detransitioned, and claimed harm… pic.twitter.com/wYbZvqOEJS

That’s a start, and she deserves a whole lot more, considering that she’s been gaslit out of living a normal life. And any doctor involved belongs in prison.

I’ve pointed out before that people become a lot more predictable when you account for their incentives. I expect a great many physicians and psychologists to start singing a different tune, considering that a legal precedent has just been set.

And it seems as though some of them are. The American Society of Plastic Surgeons has changed their position on gender transition surgeries for children. It’s possible that they’ve been considering this for a while, but it seems to be a stretch to accept that their change in stance comes hot on the heels of news that shows that their previous stance could cost them a lot of money.

The American Society of Plastic Surgeons has recommended against gender transition surgeries for youths, becoming the first major medical association in the U.S. to narrow its guidance on pediatric gender care. https://t.co/yeR4zviNVM

But consider the implications of these professionals changing their opinions as incentives shift. If they had ethics that they were sincere about, it wouldn’t take the prospect of being sued into oblivion to realize that there was something wrong with what they were doing.

Then there’s the question of what else they were lying about, if they were willing to say that men could become women. Doctor’s offices are more dangerous than they should be.

I’ll end this article on an interesting thought: There are a lot of doctors and psychologists out there who fast-tracked minors to life-ruining surgeries, with the idea that they could make some money by doing so. They have to be shitting themselves, right now. There are a lot of corrupt professionals who are going to lose a lot of money, to the point of their practices being shut down.

And considering that they deserve far worse, they’re not going to get any pity from me.
