Again though it's not entirely that simple, it's a big step, it's not that you take pills and get sliced and that's that.

A bad or even just mediocre surgeon can make a complete mess. There's a risk of post-surgical infection. There are risks associated with anaesthesia. There are cancer risks and other health risks associated with hormone replacement.

Drugs and surgeries should never be taken lightly. Many will eventually choose to go down that route but in my opinion, it's not right to tell people what they MUST do in order to be taken seriously.
