Transwomen &Transmen. Should they be allowed to sue hospitals, doctors, surgeons etc if surgery doesn't make them their desire biological gender?

^^^^^^^^^Conservatives try to tell them but we get call transphobic when we are really just realists and the only ones willing to tell them the truth.

I think it's a little more complicated than this, but keep in mind they're not exactly suing the hospital or the doctors. They're actually suing our malpractice insurance companies, which is a different problem altogether. Those companies generally have the right to settle a lawsuit around us that is settle lawsuits without our consent or agreement. It's possible to get malpractice insurance where we get the final say and settlements can go to trial we want them to, but these are exceedingly expensive policies. Most malpractice insurance companies will absolutely not go to trial because it's just too expensive. From my standpoint, I don't care too much, except that if we or our insurance company settles a lawsuit, it goes on our permanent record in the national provider database. That makes it exceedingly difficult going forward to get hospital privileges. Hospital privileges in my specialty are not all that important, but not having them would still be a problem for me. For people like surgeons who need operating rooms and specialized equipment, and radiologists who need very specialized equipment like MRI machines, this sort of thing is a disaster, financially.

Various surgical procedures involve risks of adverse consequences even if the surgery is performed by a competent and careful physician. In such cases, there is no liability of the patient was informed of such risks in advance and then made an informed decision to have the surgery and take the chance. Such information is always imparted to the patient in writing and the patient is always required to sign that form acknowledging the risks and consenting to the procedure.

In this particular case, it is difficult to imagine a competent man deciding to have sex change surgery believing that he would leave the surgical suite with a uterus and ovaries. This really stretches credulity!

[emeraldsaphire]

This sounds like the punchline to a joke. I highly doubt the doctor wouldn't go thorough everything long before the operation and the person wouldn't have looked stuff up themselves. Though who knows, McDonalds warn's people the coffee is hot. People are stupid.

[Hagar88]

We are telling kids trans women ard women.

[purplepoppy]

This would have been discussed pre surgery. No hospital would carry out the operation on someone who didn't have the mental capacity to understand this.

[Hagar88]

When you are indoctrinate kids at z young age that tans women are women this is what you get.

[CalmUntilAbused]

You know what? Why not! The trans lobby would starve to death overnight if every wronged "trans" person sued them for the "botched" surgeries. Those people would in turn get some money to live on and potentially turn their lives around, as much as possible, anyway.

[Viola_456]

Ofc they should be able to sue if doctor messed up but not when they are just not satisfied with a result. Its a huge surgery and they should learn about the downsides

[Hagar88]

Sold a false sale of goods.

[Viola_456]

How? Its your problem you didn't know what you're going into.
You also dont sue tattoo artist when you found out you dont want that tattoo anymore. You can but only if he messed up

[Hagar88]

You a tattoo artist if they dont deliver what they promised. Its why there are so mant white girls that git tramp stamps in the 00s at 18 with Chinese characters that instead of meaning something wise and profound mean chicken noodle soup or something like it.

I don't think this is a straight answer. I think the schools are to blame for putting this inof out there cause there's a lot of young people who are detransition's happening. I think there needs to be a law were you got to be at less 18 - 21 to get that type of surgery. Blaire White is a perfect example of what a real trans person is. Some parents kak mother's chose that their child is trans when more then likely they're not and they just are making their child's life h*ll.

[Berethor]

Funny, yea a male can never become a woman, so sex change surgery is an scamming.

[CaptainSmartass]

Hell no! They're just cosplaying as the opposite gender. That's all a sex change is - glorified cosplaying.

Simples...

Obamacare makes it impossible to sue hospitals for anything anymore.

[AngryCarl3]

If the hospital failed to explain the operation, then yes they should be able to sue. If not, they don't have a case. What did they think, that female organs would appear by magic?

[Mike_Hum]

FFS. You can't win with mentally ill people.

[Sevenpointfive]

should they be doing surgeries on people that low IQ?

[Cidknee]

No. They're not God! They can only do so much.

[CalmUntilAbused]

Well, they should not play God then...

[Hagar88]

But when you are indoctrination kids at a young age that transwomen are women you end up with this. Im sure there's plenty of transwomen that regret the surgery because of the genital mutilation, hormones they have to take and the health conditions they get

[CalmUntilAbused]

@hagar88 I agree, that's why I agree with suing the medical practitioners. They did know what they were doing. They knew it wouldn't work the way those patients of theirs would want, therefore they should refrain from doing it.

[Cidknee]

I change my answer! Fuck'em to bankruptcy!!

[Desserter4]

Yes, those surgeons know what they're doing
