[edit] Attn: Admin RE: image license duplication

I have been imformed to paste this comment {{edit protected}} regarding the image. Otto Placik (talk) 21:02, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

{{Edit proctected}} is for requesting edits to protected pages, which this is not. Algebraist 21:05, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Suporn technique

I've linked to suporn technique and redirected that to Suporn until it gets defined, and put a stub under his name. It's a bit confusing, because it doesn't mention him having any unique techniques. Does he do something different than the previous two? Tyciol 19:32, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Merges of content from Neovaginoplasty, Coloplasty and Penile inversion

I have merged the content from these three articles, and made each a redirect to Vaginoplasty. I don't see any need for four separate articles on the different forms of vaginoplasty. There is not enough information on each to constitute their own article. If each section becomes so large as to require its own article, that would be the appropriate time to break it out, not preemptively.

That said, help with cleaning up the References section would be useful. I removed the following sentence from the section now called Techniques for male-to-female transsexual patients:

(need ref. to Journal Urology articles from pubmed)

I'm not sure what is meant by this.

Also, the entire article is choppy and it would greatly benefit from the help of any knowledgeable person. I welcome polite suggestions and input on these changes. Joie de Vivre 17:36, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Dr.Chettawut Tulayaphanich and use of scrotal skin

Dr Chet in Thailand seems to use a method that is neither Penile inversion or colon vaginoplasty. He quotes from his site (http://www.chet-plasticsurgery.com) that he uses scrotal skin to line the neo-vagina while using the skin from the penis itself in the construction of labia. Is it just me getting confused here or is this really a different technique to those described? On his FAQ page he does say that it is not penile inversion. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.130.189.66 (talk) 09:54, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WikiProject class rating

This article was automatically assessed because at least one WikiProject had rated the article as start, and the rating on other projects was brought up to start class. BetacommandBot 16:32, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

I will leave it to someone else's expert hands to edit the Labioplasty section. The high point of the bias would have to be this part: "Many women are taught to dislike the large protuberant appearance of their labia minora. This may cause severe embarrassment with a sexual partner if the sexual partner is unused to the female genetalia outside of animated pornography."

[edit] Unclear picture

Sorry if this sounds stupid, but which panel is the "before" and which one the "after"? To my young male eyes the "left" panel is much more attractive, so if it depicts the situation "before labioplasty" I don't quite see the benefit of the surgical intervention. If on the contrary it's the "after labioplasty" situation, it seems illogical to present it first (based on LRTB writing). MCSmarties (talk) 20:30, 8 July 2010 (UTC)

The right is the after and I agree with you, the left is the more aesthetically pleasing.--Lakkasuo (talk) 20:05, 2 December 2010 (UTC)

Dear Anonymous editor Number 70.142.40.28:

Please contact me, and defend your censorship of a medical image. The weasel words "appears to be" ignore that the image denotes a type of vaginoplasty. Are you a physician? Let's correspond. Otto Placik (talk) 20:16, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
