About
As with all effective therapies for gender dysphoria, there are frequent attempts to present SRS as unnecessary or harmful, typically in an effort to demean transgender people or deny them proper care.
Notes
- Walt Heyer:
- Sex Change Regret, a site by Walt Heyer: presents views that contradict the scientific consensus
- Sex Change Info by Walt Heyer: same applies

Walt Heyer and Jerry Leach, both of whom have apparently made careers out of their surgery regrets, allegedly both lied to their therapists in order to get surgery recommendations. (Still trying to track down this claim.)
Personal note: the one SRS recipient I know who has regretted undergoing it was largely coerced into doing so by a doctor who threatened to withhold other treatment (HRT) unless the recipient agreed to the surgery. This is why it is so important to confirm that the subject wants SRS. Woozle (talk) 13:46, 21 June 2020 (UTC)
