Aussie Girl Wants Breasts Removed

An Australian Family Court has pushed through a decision to allow a 17-year-old girl to have her breasts removed because she wants to live as a boy and if she waited until she was 18, she wouldn't be able to get the taxpayers to pay for the operation.

Chief Justice of the Family Court Diana Bryant said it was in the teen's best interests to have the double mastectomy immediately because she has "gender identity dysphoria."

Ethicist Nick Tonti-Filippini said that U.S. guidelines specify that people who suffer from gender dysphoria are psychotic and, therefore, the court ruling is based on a false belief.

Judge Bryant would hear none of that.

Moral of the story: Don't elect judges who think that whacking body parts should be done with taxpayer funding.
