Chris Elston: ‘In the U.S., We Know from Insurance Data that Up to 179 Girls Under the Age of 12.5 Have Had Double Mastectomies’

EXCERPT:

ELSTON: “I’ve got two girls, I can’t imagine ever telling them that they were born wrong. That message itself is extraordinarily abusive and stupid. But then to medicalize them, to stop their puberty from happening, to stop their natural development, to give them the opposite sex hormones, which are causing a host of problems, to cut off body parts of kids? This is what’s happening. In the U.S., we know from insurance data that up to 179 girls under the age of 12.5 have had double mastectomies.”
