While I thoroughly disconnect with my ex-husband for his decades of lies and profligacy, including co-opting my 2 natural labors, as he tries to present himself with these exact details (12 hours first labor, intense 5 hours second labor) as the 'mother' of our sons, I do not hate him or wish him dead. (see advocacy.com for more of the mother erasure, just in time for Mother's Day.) He's been hoodwinked by very wealthy psychologists and surgeons. I do want credit for telling him 30 years ago, that no doctor can insert female genital nerve endings into his pelvis. between his legs or in his breasts and he will therefore never experience the female sexual rapture he imagines, his holy grail. Dr. Ray Blanchard said, to justify his decades of medical malpractice, "It's too disruptive to acknowledge that you wish your penis was part of your wife's body. It's too disruptive to acknowledge that this is a sexual compulsion." (Bloom, 2002, Atlantic Monthly, now archived at childrenoftransitioners.org) Believe it or not, TRAs, many of them female are still saying I must have failed in some way in my wifely duties. No. Doctors are lying. To tell a wife that you want her body and her body to have a penis is the most thorough turn-off I've heard.

The "lapse in judgment" wasn't a lapse at all but is exactly in line with her judgment. It makes sense that the freaks cutting parts off and sterilizing children want a pedo as a colleague.
