Pretty frequently I'll see "surgery regret" being used as a reason to delegitimze gender-affirming surgery, but I would like to remind all my fellow cis people that:
1) Surgery regret is an issue in ALL surgery, including, as the link shows, knee surgery.
2) Surgery regret in non-gender affirming surgery is literally orders of magnitude higher. 18% of people getting knee surgery regret it, in comparison to about 1% of gender surgery.
