« Is it ethical to perform a surgery whose purpose is to make a male look like a female or a female to appear male? Is it medically appropriate? Sexual reassignment surgery (SRS) violates basic medical and ethical principles and is therefore not ethically or medically appropriate » write Fitzgibbons et al. (National Catholic Bioethics Quarterly 9.1 (Spring 2009): 97–125.)
They note that gender reassignment surgery « mutilates a healthy, non-diseased body », and question whether this violates the principle of « do no harm ».
Their article examines questions of disordered perception of self, lack of secure attachment relationships, gender identity disorder, body image issues, addiction to masturbation / fantasy, anger, and parental psychopathology.
They conclude that « SRS does not accomplish what it claims to accomplish. It does not change a person’s sex; therefore, it provides no true benefit. »
