The WHOLE Network
It has been eight years since David Reimer left this world by choice. Had a different choice been left to him instead of stolen in infancy, we can only guess how different his life would have been. David was the victim of infant circumcision, but his “routine” procedure was anything but. David lost his entire penis and was raised as a girl. He suffered gender dysphoria and depression from an early age and took his own life on May 5, 2004. http://intactamerica.wordpress.com/2012/05/05/honoring-david-reimer/
