A prisoner is suing Oregon Department of Corrections Director Max Williams and 16 other state prison officials for ignoring what he calls his severe case of gender-identity disorder. According to a civil-rights lawsuit filed Nov. 21 at U.S. District Court in Portland, 27-year-old Jorey Lee Brewis—aka Rebekah Katherine—was so troubled that he cut out his testicles in his cell and mutilated them. Brewis was sentenced to 70 months in 2000 for robbery. But he's had his original sentence extended by seven years for a series of convictions while behind bars for assault, carrying a weapon and supplying contraband. He is currently being held at Two Rivers Correctional Institution in Umatilla. Brewis refers to himself as a female throughout the lawsuit, which says his discomfort with his male body is so severe that he's tried suicide four times since 2002 and has tried to castrate himself 13 times. "Plaintiff grieves deeply over hair loss due to male pattern baldness caused by testosterone, and also grief over restriction from shaving her body free of the men's length hair growing on whole body," the hand-written lawsuit says. "This disjunction between body and mind causes plaintiff everyday misery and compels desires to castrate the testicles." The lawsuit claims prison officials knew of Brewis' disorder through his repeated attempts to kill and castrate himself, but that they denied Brewis treatment. On Sept. 18, the lawsuit says Brewis castrated himself in his cell using his fingernails "partially based on study of the Gray's Anatomy book that teaches castration." It took five hours, involved "extreme mental suffering," and "a oll of toilet paper was used to absorb all of the blood," the lawsuit says.

Aren't we all?
Aren't we all? I also read that he smashed his testicles to make sure "they were dead." Apparently, some people really are insane.
Have pug, will laugh.
As you and I both know that is not the proper way to treat testicles.

That's Missouri cave dweller to you. Turtle is immune to the insults of peons.

Missouri should be cut into 8ths.

Sit down and play for us, son,

As you and I both know that is not the proper way to treat testicles. It makes me cringe into a near-foetal position just to think about it. I am NOT my balls, but damn it I am rather attached to them.
""I think the subject which will be of most importance politically is Mass Psychology...It's importance has been enormously increased by the growth of modern methods of propaganda...Although this science will be diligently studied, it will be rigidly confined to the governing class. The populace will not be allowed to know how its convictions were generated." Bertrand Russel, Eugenicist and Logician
At least his kids won't inherit any of his problems.
Most women seem to prefer treating testicles exactly that way. :p
I shall not vote for evil, lesser or otherwise. Brewis refers to himself as a female throughout the lawsuit, which says his discomfort with his male body is so severe that he's tried suicide four times since 2002 and has tried to castrate himself 13 times. "Plaintiff grieves deeply over hair loss due to male pattern baldness caused by testosterone, and also grief over restriction from shaving her body free of the men's length hair growing on whole body," the hand-written lawsuit says. "This disjunction between body and mind causes plaintiff everyday misery and compels desires to castrate the testicles." The lawsuit claims prison officials knew of Brewis' disorder through his repeated attempts to kill and castrate himself, but that they denied Brewis treatment. On the grand scale of things, I think it best not to tax the common man and woman to prevent freaks like Brewis from hurting themselves.

You have a point there--that is, unless he is released and adopts some with his "partner." I feel sorry for kids in situations like that. Be better off in an orphanage.
Liberty is not a means to a higher political end. It is itself the highest political end. Welling up with tears...

Hmmm well there are a few of us who know the truth!
2. Welling up with tears... LOL! I ran your post through an online translator (Promt, which is free and probably "good enough" if the translation does not have to be perfect, but this is what it made out of all that mess): "The plaintiff is grieved deeply over hairs loss owed calvizile male of the model caused at the testoterone and also the pain over the limitation with the shaving of his body exempt of the men' length hairs of s that grow on the whole body," 2. Eu tambem (me too). ahaha.
