I don’t think it’s really just a matter of chopping it off,
but that's what it is. Actually it isn't that at all. It's a complex surgical procedure where they, for want of a more technical description, "turn it inside out and tuck it in". Rr Ps. I knew a guy in boulder Co in the 1970s that did the chopjob on himself. But he was a rather disturbed person who couldn't possibly pass the standard psych evaluation.
that was me just sort of bullshitting ;)
rather, I think you are bullshitting now, trying to play it down =) Anyway, out of curiosity, I took a
look and Argentina is actually quite a bit farther along this line than the old Americunts... the following cut and pasted from wikipedia -
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transgender_rights_in_Argentina
“Transgender rights in Argentina are among the most advanced in the world.
sounds exactly like what the typical local 'progressive' asshole would write : "most advanced in the world" haha
The country "has one of the world's most comprehensive transgender rights laws":[1] its Gender Law, passed in 2012, made Argentina the "only country that allows people to change their gender identities without facing barriers such as hormone therapy, surgery or psychiatric diagnosis that labels them as having an abnormality".[2][3] In 2015, the World Health Organization cited Argentina as an exemplary country for providing transgender rights.[3] Upon legalising same-sex marriage on July 15, 2010, Argentina became the first country in Latin America, the second in the Americas, and the tenth in the world to do so.”
<snip some stuff>
“Gender identity law
The Ley de Género (Gender Law),[7] grants adults sex reassignment surgery and hormone therapy as a part of their public or private health care plans. The law also allows for changes to gender, image, or birth name on civil registries without the approval of a doctor or a judge.”
sounds like bullshit. Changing your birth name was always a bureaucratic mess and I actually doubt people ever tried it. So I highly doubt you can now change your name or 'image'(what the fuck is that even supposed to mean) easily. I can tell you however that last time I tried to buy a kilo of caustic soda, the motherfucking scum at the shop didn't sell it to me because I don't have a credit card. They want ID AND you can't pay in cash. Courtesy of the DEA and the local DEA lapdogs.
