'He complains that doctors did not warn him of the drastic outcome of the body-altering surgery which has left him infertile, incontinent and feeling like a ‘sexual eunuch’.

Not much euphoria, then?

I know people like to claim that the doctors are pushing this for the money, and there's probably more than a bit of truth to that. But seeing how utterly nuts the troons get when they don't get instantly accommodated in their every demand, how they'll just rain crazy all over someone's career and personal life for the "crime" of denying their reality? Well, if I were that doctor, I'd smile and give them what they demand. Fuck having everything I put years or decades of effort into tanked because some gender-bent nutter with a maggot in their brain decides that surgery is actually magic and can give them real boy/girl parts instead of merely cosmetic fakes.

And, of course, he lays all of the blame on everyone else for his problems now and none for himself.

I mean I do think it's sad that if that's the case the doctors can't do their jobs and give their patients the most realistic options on the results.

That and looking at an article about Tavistock not too long ago they push for it to a disturbing extent. There was a girl that liked Thomas and hated periods and therefore she was trans.

Exactly.

They should be able to allow detransitioners to sue, but at the same time, there should also be the "careful what you wish for, you just might get it" clause: if the doctor/parents can prove, conclusively, the detransitioner threatened suicide if the doctor did not let them transition, then it should count as the people being threatened into doing it and those people should not be held liable.

The doctors who do this kind of very specialized surgery aren't doing it reluctantly. Some of it is money but I think they're mostly Frankensteins who want dolls to practice on.
