Thailand’s Public Health Ministry has made a ruling that removing the gonads of young boys – even with their consent, is illegal and now considered a FELONY. So before this – how available was the procedure – and what age did one need to be with consent? Did parents need consented?
In typical Thailand news style – half the story is missing. I don’t have time to be writing the news – if I did I’d be on staff. Come on guys – step up to the plate!
Rumor is that The Nation lost a lot of their good writers. I’m starting to believe it as the level of writing has taken a serious nose-dive.
Underage, as they say – I believe is 18. But, one can’t even go into a go-go bar or karaoke if under the age of 20, at least that’s what the signs say here where I am in Thailand.
The Nation:
Testicles removal of underage prohibited
BANGKOK: — Surgical removal of testicles will be prohibited starting Wednesday, after a Public Health Ministry committee forbade the practice Tuesday.
Government or private clinics that breached the condition face indefinite closure, or have their license revoked permanently.
The ministry is seeking a legal interpretation whether removal of testicles was a criminal offense, in spite of consent given by young gay men who seek to have their organs removed. A Criminal Code article states that deprivation of one’s reproducing ability is deemed causing serious injuries and therefore a felony.
