Buck Angel, Hello. I have a question for you. I’ve seen some stuff floating around on here regarding your views on bottom surgery (specifically, a Twitter screenshot in which you refer to bottom surgery as being “mutilat[ion]”. However, I figured that I would ask for clarification on what you meant. Why do you see bottom surgery as being mutilating? Do you see top surgery as being harmful as well? Personally, I see having bottom surgery as being medically necessary for myself.

Hey There,

First I think it is great that you have the choice to choose whatever you need for yourself.Congratulations!

When I was asked about why I will not get a penis I answer why. This is why( thought I have to say I do not remember using that word-if you could show me that would be great)

I do believe for myself that bottom surgery is not needed and many guys like me feel the same, BUT they have been pushed into thinking otherwise from other transmen in the community.

I am just helping with options and also showing results from the bottom surgery. I have had a couple friends who have had bottom surgery and wish they NEVER went through with it. Again my experience first hand with the surgery.

So I hope that you have a very successful surgery and also remember we are all different.

Lots of trans men try to get you to believe that I am anti penis surgery. So to set the record straight one last time, I am not against bottom surgery or any other kind of surgery. It is your choice.
