A user of the social network X called for life imprisonment for doctors who perform gender reassignment surgeries for children, reacting to the information from The Times newspaper that over the past 5 years at least 14,000 children have been subjected to ‘surgical or chemical castration’ in the United States.

“Yes,” Elon Musk wrote in a comment to the post.

Earlier, the US entrepreneur claimed that he was ‘tricked’ into giving consent for his son Xavier, who identified himself as a woman, to be given puberty-suppressing hormones. According to the businessman, it was not explained to him that ‘puberty blockers are actually just sterilisation drugs’.
