 Sexual reassignment surgery : Sexual reassignment
Sexual reassignment surgery (SRS) is the surgical procedure by which a person's physical appearance and function is changed to that of the other sex.
Transsexuals prior to surgery are often referred to as pre-operative; those who have already had the surgery may be referred to as post-operative or simply identified by the sex and sexual status to which they have ascribed.
Many female-to-male (FTM) individuals do not opt for genital reassignment surgery, but only require a double mastectomy (removal of breast) and shaping of a masculine chest and hysterectomy (removal of internal female sex organs).

 Susan's Place Transgender Resources for Transsexuals and Crossdressers: Library: Sex Reassignment Surgery: Historical, ...
While sex reassignment surgery is an invasive and irreversible procedure, presumed by some investigators to have a negative psychological effect on the patient, many questions are still unanswered by the research.
While all practitioners should be concerned about the unrestricted use of sex reassignment surgery, it may be that for some patients sex reassignment surgery is the treatment of choice.
Citing an 80%- 90% cure rate for sex reassignment surgery, investigators generally accepted the fact that traditional psychiatric intervention was useless with transsexuals and that sex reassignment surgery was the treatment of choice for transsexualism.

Twenty-one white applicants for sexual reassignment surgery aged 39 or under were sampled randomly from the Vanderbilt Gender Identity Clinic.
Respondents were also asked to give their behavioral observations and subjective impressions about each case, reasons the applicant appeared to be seeking sexual reassignment surgery at that time, disposition and follow-up data, and all psychiatric diagnoses that applied.
On the basis of the depressive symptomatology and the transvestic nature of their patients, the investigators encouraged marital or supportive individual therapy and antidepressant medication when necessary, rather than reassignment surgery.

 eMedicine - Sexual and Gender Identity Disorders : Article by Robert Levey, PhD, MPH
Paraphilias are associated with arousal in response to sexual objects or stimuli not associated with normal behavior patterns and that may interfere with the establishment of sexual relationships.
The patient has recurrent and intense sexual urges and sexually arousing fantasies involving the act of observing an unsuspecting person who is naked, in the process of disrobing, or engaging in sexual activity.

 Transsexual Sex Reassignment Surgery (male to female)
Then, in a surgery similar to those done to create vaginas for intersexed patients, surgeons constructed the patient's vagina by using skin grafts taken from her thighs or buttocks (Christine's vaginoplasty surgery was in 1954).
While the psychological impact of such surgery would usually cripple the libido of a normal male, the effect on a young transsexual girl is usually just the opposite: The surgery can be liberating and can enable a fuller expression of her sensuality and her female libidinous feelings.
Sexual stimulation by rubbing and caressing the genital area and the breasts can then lead to orgasm for a girl who is sufficiently aroused.

 The Disparate Classification of Gender and Sexual Orientation in American Psychiatry
Although human sexual orientation and gender identification represent distinct phenomena and are considered largely orthogonal, they are intricately intertwined in medical theory and social consequence.
The description, "sexually arousing," could be interpreted to apply to only "fantasies" or to all three of "fantasies, sexual urges, or behaviors" with very different meaning.
The theories which failed to justify the pathologization of sexual orientation and those which support the continued classification of gender orientation are remarkably similar.

 Alas, a blog » Blog Archive » Does sexual reassignment surgery work?
All 28 reported themselves satisfied with their reassignment and surgical outcome, and none expressed regrets.
They found that outcomes - measured in terms of "subjective satisfaction; mental stability; socioeconomic functioning; and partnership and sexual experience" - of SRS are generally positive.
The main reason some reputable SRS programs shutdown is because it became increasingly clear that the surgery was not 'curing' many transsexuals.

 MTV.com - Movies - Features and Interviews
Director Ekachai Uekrongtham tastefully portrays Parinya's life — from childhood through his intensive training and championship fighting career — and captures the intense emotional drama and brutal physical action inherent in this fascinating character's story.
Based on the real-life story of Parinya Charoenphol, the film chronicles the journey of a champion kickboxer who, from his earliest years, felt like a girl trapped inside a boy's body and decided to master the art of Muay Thai boxing in order to make money for sexual-reassignment surgery.
This tale of a kickboxer who only fights in order to earn enough money for a sex-change operation would be unbelievable if it weren't true.
