A few years ago, a trans woman wrote me an email, saying that she had had gender reassignment surgery and that her vagina didn't function. She felt that via my book, Sex and the Single Transsexual, I was putting out misinformation about trans people having successful reassignment surgery.

I wrote her back, vehemently denying her allegation.

Some trans women get good results from gender reassignment surgery and some don't. It's that simple. Gender reassignment surgery is like any cosmetic surgery procedure--nose jobs, cheek implants, voice modification surgery, etc. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.
