Heartbreaking story.
David Reiner’s tragic story is another one.

These are the tragic cases for whom the 'sex assigned at birth' stuff actually applies. Sophie has been through hell, has more right than anyone to wonder about the existence of a gender identity and the awful activists dare to appropriate stories like hers for their own means. It makes me furious.

Wow this is really shocking. I didn't know this happened

I know someone who's a few years older than Sophie who was born with the same condition, they didn't do gender reassignment on him. He's had a tough time with health problems and coming to terms with his differences but he's certainly not as messed up as Sophie and is married and has a child ( by donor ).

How awful for that family. It is really good that she is telling her story and raising awareness of the condition.

I managed to read it by clicking the link and quickly switching to aeroplane mode.

This is an archive link that might work.

It's in the Telegraph which doesn't do share tokens unfortunately. It may have been archived, or will be. I've read it - it is a really sad story and shows the awful consequences of doctors playing God. I feel for both Sophie and her parents.

If you go to the web site https://archive.ph and paste in the telegraph link you will see the whole article.

I assumed it would be a story of intersex "correction" by arrogant surgeons but this seems even more complicate.
