Num artigo do jornal "Público", do qual infelizmente não tenho link nem mais dados, relativo às propostas do Conselho Nacional de Ética e Deontologia Médicas da Ordem dos Médicos, ficou-se a saber que enquanto «o actual código prevê a proibição de cirurgia para reatribuição do sexo, salvo em casos clínicos de transsexualismo ou disforia do género», existe uma proposta da comissão de ética que «mantém esta restrição mas preconiza que a operação não possa ser feita a pessoas casadas e a menores». Comissão de ética ou comissão ditatorial? Como explicar que uma comissão de ética tenha atitudes que demonstram uma completa falta dessa mesma ética? Porquê continuar a vitimizar pessoas?

Uma prova viva em como quando um especialista de uma determinada área se mete em áreas diferentes, temos asneirada na certa.
