在摩洛哥行医的法国妇科医生 Dr. Burou 是现代男变女变性手术 (Male to Female Sex Reassignment Surgery, MtF SRS) 的祖师爷。他创造性地手术技巧,保留了男性阴茎中最敏感的部分和大部分的阴茎皮肤,使之成为术后女性的阴蒂和阴道的内衬。1973年,在斯坦福大学医学院主持的学术会议上,Dr. Burou 第一次正式公开展示了他创新的手术方法 。直到现在,在全世界范围内,很多整形外科医生还是在延用 Dr. Burou 基本的手术方法。
Castration and sex reassignment operation will become old school in the near future of human medicine. With the advent of inexpensive whole genome sequencing and progress from regenerative medicine, we will be able to find out which genes in people like Aleshia Brevard contribute such desires to become the other gender. It's unfortunate that the human current ethics prevents us from providing genetic modification on humans. Otherwise such problem can be fixed with a local recombinant lentiviral injection to his cortex without having to cut off his balls and dick. Obviously for people who really desire to have their balls removed, regenerative medicine may be able to grow out a cunt for them.
