Top surgery scars in The Sims 4 please

There’s a big ongoing celebration of cutting off the tits of young girls.
The Science is officially saying it’s good for their mental health. We should remember this is the same “The Science” that promoted the coronavirus hoax and the coronavirus vax.
The quality of life of young transmasculine people dramatically improves after receiving top surgery — a mastectomy procedure that removes breast tissue — according to a study by Northwestern Medicine.
The study, published in peer-reviewed journal JAMA Pediatrics on Monday, is the first to show that top surgery is “associated with significant improvement in chest dysphoria, gender congruence, and body image in transmasculine and nonbinary teens and young adults,” Northwestern Medicine said in a press release.
The study compared two groups of patients ranging in ages from 14 to 24: one group of 36 patients received top surgery, and a control group of 34 patients received gender-affirming care, but did not get top surgery. Three months after surgery, the patients who had the procedure experienced significantly less chest dysphoria than they had prior to surgery, while patients in the control group experienced around the same levels of chest dysphoria as they had at the start of their care.
“When we compared the outcomes of patients who received gender-affirming top surgery to those who did not, we recognized that surgery significantly improved the quality of life for patients,” said Dr. Sumanas Jordan, the director of the gender pathways program at Northwestern Medicine.
This Sumanas Jordan is apparently a Thai tranny.
Prior studies have also shown that chest dysphoria is a pervasive issue for trans and gender non-conforming youth. In a study published by the American Academy of Pediatrics in 2021, researchers at the University of Rochester Medical Center “observed consensus that chest dysphoria is a major source of distress and can be functionally disabling to transmasculine youth.”
“This has been well documented in adult patients, but until now it hasn’t been well-described in teens and young adults,” said Jordan, who is also the lead author of the Northwestern study.
American Civil Liberties Union lawyer Chase Strangio went viral on Twitter Monday after sharing his own experience with top surgery, which he received in his mid-20s. “There is not a day that goes by that I don’t think about how it was the best thing I have ever done for my survival,” the tweet read.
“I also had orthopedic knee surgery at 14 and often regret it. But no NYTs pieces about orthopedic regret I see,” he added, seemingly referencing a New York Times article published Monday about access to gender-affirming surgeries for trans people.
I had top surgery 13 years ago. There is not a day that goes by that I don’t think about how it was the best thing I have ever done for my survival. I also had orthopedic knee surgery at 14 and often regret it. But no NYTs pieces about orthopedic regret I see.

Exactly. It took me 5months to realise what mistake had been done. If asked three months afterwards I too would have said that my dysphoria had significantly decreased and then I probably would have been used to promote top surgery on minors even though I now deeply regret it https://t.co/gRc8KvvxN1

Anti-LGBTQ+ bills have seen a sharp rise in recent years, with transgender Americans specifically becoming a political talking point. According to Bloomberg Law, “In the 2022 state legislative year, about 60% of all proposed LGBTQ-health related bills aimed to ban or limit transgender-related health care,” and the stakes are high.
Access to gender-affirming surgical care can be a life or death issue for trans youth. A study published in the journal Pediatrics found that nearly 51% of female-to-male respondents had attempted suicide, while the average youth suicide rate in the U.S. is 9%, according to a 2022 study by UCLA.
…
An analysis of 56 peer-reviewed works by the What We Know Project found that in 93% of the studies, gender transition improved the overall well-being of trans respondents.
“Patients who choose gender-affirming top surgery feel better about their bodies, and it enhances their quality of life,” Jordan said. “Our hope is that this study will now be used as a resource for teens, young adults and for families who want to learn more about surgical transition options.”
If this is so good for girls’ mental health, why don’t we cut all girls’ tits off, like we cut 1/3rd of the skin of all boys’ penises?
This is all satanic, and on social media, half the people promoting it are open satanists.

Maybe that should be a cause for pause?
