see my previous post for my thoughts on gender surgery though!
My point was for someone with say bruxis
m, dental implants are more than cosmetic but in most cases they are cosmetic.

do you think that most gender surgerys are cosmetic? I dont think its about looking better, but feeling comfortable in your body.

I agree with you however isn't that the same reason someone get a a boob job? That is why I think it is elective and including it in insurance drives up the cost for all.

good. the workplace is no place for judging your co-workers lifestyles out loud. Keep it to yourself and there is no problem.

No one would 'elect' this surgery ever unless they felt it 'required'! This is a no-brainer! IMO

I have to agree. I know this is not the best place for going out on a limb on this one but......imagine living in the body of one sex when your brain is wired to be the other sex. I wouldn't wish that on anyone.

I can see where this type of surgery appears to be elective but if you stop and think about it those that decide to have this surgery are truly suffering inside.

I'm no expert but I believe the suicide rate is high for this group. Nothing should be worth that.

Covered - agreed.
