The law should be "Wait until your 21 to screw up your genitals and pay for it out of your own pockets" A sex change being covered by any insurance is just insane. I would promote pro-bono-lifo-suctions instead, to even growth spert, and covering a gym-membership with a personal trainer. Convinced a 12yo to cut off his penis over losing his virginity? What has the world come to? I remember that song "Girls Ucking Boys, in this wild, wild, world. Wild Wild World!!!. Com feel the joy!" and that is how things should have stayed entirely. It was a perfect balance. This is a response to the post seen at: http://www.jlaforums.com/viewtopic.php?p=667217992#667217992
