What a tragedy...!
After a botched circumcision in infancy left David Reimer's genitals severely injured, his parents decided to raise him as a girl instead. He was renamed "Brenda," underwent sex reassignment surgery, and was given estrogen pills to feminize his body. But Reimer grew up with severe gender dysphoria and depression. And when he was finally told the truth at age 14, he immediately began to transition back to a male body.
See the photos, watch an interview and learn the devastating story of David Reimer, the boy unwillingly raised as a girl in the 1960s and '70s here: [bit.ly]

Confirming the arguement that gender preference is inborn, and denying it only causes severe harm, regardless of "good intentions"

I remember reading about this family off and on over the years, what a travesty that was.
