Yup, it checks out.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orchiectomy (warning, contains surgical diagrams)

Common among trans women so they can stop taking anti-androgen drugs, and also a procedure included with bottom surgery for MTF. They don’t let you keep the balls in a jar :-(

I laughed harder at this then I should have.

Yeah my girlfriend is weird so I wanted to let her have mine for wet specimen making, but they had to burn them.

But it depends on the surgeon so you can always ask

Hahahaha thank you for this

Can someone explain what happened in 1984?

Because they do a biopsy on them to check for cancer and then they incinerate them

If you claim you have a religious for needing them back (reunification being pretty common, as in, you need them so you can be buried with them) then they will run their tests, and give them back to you if they're not a hazard.

My brother used this to keep his gallbladder, and a friend of a friend kept her foot after diabetes took it. Both examples in Tennessee. I don't know if it matters which state you're in, but I'm positive the country would probably make a difference.

Plus, I think it's funny the idea of some medical person somewhere trying to square their incredibly narrow view of religion with a trans woman being so devout in their own faith as to be concerned about burial practices potentially decades in the future, given the stereotype that everyone LGBTQ+ is an evil atheist.

I mean, it's the best deez nuts joke possible.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 11 months ago

It's the best opportunity for a deez nuts joke. The set up, delivery and punchline of the joke were botched hard.

I like the candies one better

Opinions are like assholes: I had mine surgically removed.

It's a chance to signal to others that that you are allied with them, more than being a funny type of joke.

I breathed out of my nose a little harder.

"Bofa" sounds like "both of", being a setup to "bofa deez nutz"
