All of which makes you more than completely wrong.
The fact is that 75% is a figure that you conceded only after being pressed on the issue and which is a special pleading case on your part when compared to other procedures. You are wrong that any procedure has to have a 100% success rate to be considered valid and your arbitrary application of that principle to SRS demonstrates your ignorance and prejudice.
The fact is that this data indicates that this treatment has a success rate far in excess of 75% so, even by your failed arbitrary standard, the treatment is valid.
I suggest that you stop now and try some damage limitation.
Wrong!Poor calamity... you ****ed up and now you are backing away from the study YOU posted. This always happens with you. You post a study that actually destroys your position, so you have to find an exit strategy... just as I have said you always do.
Incorrect. 92% are satisfied with function. You are lying or misreading the research again. I proved this in post #765.
Admit your lies or errors and we can get to this.
This is a classic conspiracy theory error. Perhaps they dropped out of the study or didn't respond because they were happy enough to not bother.
Nope. The 90% stands and just wait until you see how you've actually proved it. But that will be for later. 87% and 92%. Did you lie or were in error because you can't read research?
I'll even agree that 65% satisfaction with their lives after surgery is pretty good. But, it's a far cry from the 90% that you all seem to be pushing.
Why don't you all just stick to the 65% figure and say, the surgery shows some benefits. Saying 90% are floating on clouds after surgery is simply nonsense.
Wrong!
"37.6% were satisfied, and 34.4% very satisfied, with the functional outcome."
why do you insist on repeating this 92% lie?
No, as usual, you are either lying or cannot read the research:
72% were satisfied or very satisfied. A further 19.4% were mostly satisfied with functional outcome. That's 91.4%. calamity loses yet again.
90% has been proven. I've shown it in many studies. Your 65% is actually false. And we can get to that once you admit that you either lied or misread the research around the 87% and the 92%.
lol...now you're throwing in "mostly satisfied." And, you wonder why I scoff at all your subjective evidence that supposedly proves this SRS crap is the panacea to this dysphoria thing.

Your 90% is bullcrap. It's pretty much useless, as this report shows. But, for a cherry picker like you, I can see why some of those numbers are to your liking.
My 90% is proven right in the research that YOU posted. I always enjoy how you post information that proves you wrong. I am 100% convinced that you never read anything that you link to.
But, we still have an important question that has not been answered:
So calamity... when you said 61.2%, did you LIE or did you just show that you couldn't read the research correctly?
So, why don't you put together a decent argument as to why 'mostly satisfied' is not acceptable?
I made an error. Didn't you get that memo yet?
I'm backing off on arguing LGBT issues right now. Maybe come back to it in a few days.
Yet, she still doesn't regret having SRS. But tell me calamity, will you be showing any refutation of the sources that prove >90% satisfaction?
Studies show that >90% of people who have had SRS are satisfied with the results
The fact that >90% who have SRS are satisfied.
That >90% of transsexuals are satisfied after SRS?
90% have no regrets of having SRS.
More than 90% of the patients were satisfied with the cosmetic result and capacity for orgasm;
None of the present patients claimed to regret their decision to undergo gender-transforming surgery.
However, the outcome was very encouraging from both perspectives, with almost 90% enjoying a stable or improved life situation at follow-up
When interviewed about how content they were with the SR process as a whole, almost all the patients (95%) rated themselves as satisfied and no one regretted the SR.
Pretty good guess on my part. 61.2% satisfied, with only about half of those asked responding.
Satisfaction With Male-to-Female Gender Reassignment Surgery
I read it as 62% were satisfied with their appearance, with 25% being very satisfied. You read it as 87% combined. I think you are wrong
Regardless of surgical results, over half of patients (54.9%) were in the top third (“completely satisfied”) and a further 38.2% in the middle third (“fairly satisfied”) of the general life satisfaction scale.
5. How satisfied are you with your life now, on a scale from 1 (very dissatisfied) to 10 (very satisfied)?
The issue that calamity is trying desperately to disprove is that >90% of transsexuals are satisfied with SRS... and do not regret the surgery. calamity has tried... fairly pathetically... to disprove this. He has used out of context quotes from Renee Richards, quotes that DON'T say what he is claiming, and has falsely reported data. Now, let's move to the research that calamity posted here:
..
Satisfaction With Male-to-Female Gender Reassignment SurgeryIt is likely that most patients do not actually regret their decision to undergo surgery, even though general postoperative satisfaction is limited. Löwenberg’s figures also show this (19): 69% of those asked were satisfied with their overall life situation, but 96% would opt for surgery again.
Ya, that will be some tough going...from a german study M to F:
Satisfaction With Male-to-Female Gender Reassignment Surgery
So, when calamity claims that lots regret having SRS, and the study that you cited shows that 96% would have it again, how many of those 96% do you think regret the surgery?
Yes, it's a trick question. It's actually a question to demonstrate whether or not you are hypocritical on this issue or not, since the answer is right there in the numbers.
Myths About Transition RegretsSurgical regret is actually very uncommon. Virtually every modern study puts it below 4 percent, and most estimate it to be between 1 and 2 percent (Cohen-Kettenis & Pfafflin 2003, Kuiper & Cohen-Kettenis 1998, Pfafflin & Junge 1998, Smith 2005, Dhejne 2014). In some other recent longitudinal studies, none of the subjects expressed regret over medically transitioning (Krege et al. 2001, De Cuypere et al. 2006)
Stipulating that this is Germany, which is not USA. But it does show what is possible.
Calamity has a tough task:
