The problem is that the state of the art of surgery today results in more mutilation than change.The problem is that the state of the art of surgery today results in more mutilation than change. The post-operative transsexual is usually left with a pathetic imitation of a vagina. I'm happy to tell you that the surgical procedure we have developed, and tested on you, was totally successful in the construction of fully functional female sex organs." Joe was shrieking and in shock. After several minutes he looked up, still wailing. "But Monica, you said ... " "I told you that you could keep your precious little balls you foolish boy, and I didn't lie to you." Monica held up a mirror so Joe could see his face. Brushing his hair back from his ears she pointed at two diminutive gold globes, one of which adorned each earlobe. "I had them freeze-dried, gold plated, and permanently attached. You'll keep them forever!" Joe sobbed in his pillow. Later on, having cried himself out, the giddy man addressed Dr. van Damme. "So you did it. You've changed me into a woman." "Not really Joe. Let's examine your situation. You have the beauty, the figure, and now even the secondary sex characteristics of a woman. You may, over time, even acquire the needs and desires of a woman, but you are and shall always be a man since you lack what truly makes a woman female; a womb and ovaries. However, you also lack what makes a man male; a penis and testicles. Now a woman is the equal of a man, but since you are something less than a man, it follows that you must be less than a woman. Don't you ever forget that you are an imitation, a plaything created in retribution for the way you lived your life. You're gorgeous, you're sexy, but basically Joe, you're only a eunuch." On that note she left with the surgeon. In the hall outside, the surgeon asked her. "Why were you so severe with him? He's been through a lot. His vagina cannot be distinguished from that of a genetic female and I did a superb job on the plumbing. Why any gynecologist who examined him would testify in court that he is a woman who has suffered from cancer and been given a hysterectomy ." Dr. |
