Musk Addresses ‘Gender Transition’ Surgeries on Minors


(MENAFN) US surgeons who carry out ‘gender transition’ operations on minors could be confronted with thousands of lawsuits, Elon Musk has warned.

He compared them to Nazi doctor Josef Mengele, notorious for conducting cruel medical experiments on prisoners at the Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp during the Second World War.

Musk’s comments followed news reported by Fox News that Fox Varian, who underwent a double mastectomy at the age of 16, secured what has been described as the first detransitioner malpractice lawsuit in the United States. Now 22, Varian stated that New York doctors pressured her into having the surgery while she was still a minor.

Both a psychologist and a surgeon had approved the procedure at the time. A jury subsequently found them guilty of malpractice, awarding Varian $1.6 million for pain and suffering, in addition to $400,000 for anticipated future medical expenses.

“There will be thousands of court cases of children who were mutilated by evil doctors, modern day Mengeles,” Musk wrote on X on Saturday, sharing a post regarding the verdict.
He added, “The schools, psychologists/psychiatrists and state officials who facilitated this will pay dearly too.”

Musk has also publicly reflected on his own family’s interactions with the radical ‘gender transition’ movement. One of his children, Xavier, revealed themselves as transgender at 16 and later changed their name to Vivian Jenna Wilson.
