On top of that, the shrinks try to fit it into what they know (he wants his testicles gone, so he must want to be a woman...) That's not it. The medical community needs to come to the understanding that we are not wackos. We need sincere diologue with the medical community soon. Preferably before someone dies from undergoing an underground castration.
I know it's been said a million times, but women can nearly go in and say they want their female parts removed without a lot of questions. The medical community does it, then helps them with the aftercare. Why is it so difficult to help a man get rid of his guy parts?

There are already many medical professionals that understand that many otherwise normal guys want their genitals, either or both their testes or cock, altered or removed. While my own doc disagreed with my decision to be nutted, I'm treated normally. He knows he doesn't have to feel my testes for lumps when I go for periodic exams. He's also let me know that he'll allow me to take the lead with respect to testosterone supplements - within reason.
My take on the problem is that there's enough popular prejudice against genital mods or removal that they won't be widely available soon. Doctors are just like humanity as a whole. Only a minority understand or accept the desires of people like us. It's the majority that establish the rules. If we're lucky the minority that understands or accepts may someday get their way, and they'll be able to assist those wanting these mods.
