At 14, having been informed of his past by his father, Reimer decided to assume a male gender identity, calling himself David. By 1987, Reimer had undergone treatment to reverse the reassignment, including testosterone injections, a double mastectomy, and two phalloplasty operations
So clearly a mental disorder, with zero evidence of a genetic component. The similar suicide rate before and after transition surgery makes it very clear, though the apologists are trying very hard to manipulate those statistics as of late . Very sad that the brown shirts will eventually make it a crime to speak this truth.
It was sociology by agenda. The psychologist Money should be flogged. He needed to prove his pet theory about gender fluidity, and David Reimer was his victim and lab rat. David never had any choice in the matter.
There was a Law and Order segment about this case, although not specifically with same names etc., but they portrayed the doctor as quite vile in his Frankenstein tendencies.
The guy behind it, Money, was raised hardcore Calvinist in NZ and he pushed the Leftist Line that EVERYTHING is determined by socialization. Although he apparently didn't credit his upbringing with getting him into Med School and then JHU.
He kept the results secret though he knew that Reimer had resumed his birth sex. John Hopkins refuses to comment and refused to punish/censor Money when he was alive.
Reimer actually didn't commit suicide because of his fucked up transformation, but because his brother committed suicide, alleging he was sexually abused and forced to simulate sex acts on David.
Money denied the sexual abuse while alive. Again, JHU didn't even talk to the Reimer brothers.
