The image shows a social media post by a user named "rimonoroni2" dated May 23. The post discusses the history of phalloplasty, mentioning Laurence Michael Dillon, a British trans man who was also a doctor. It highlights Dillon's role in performing a gender-affirming orchectomy on Roberta Cowell and his inspiration from Harold Gillies, a pioneer of penile reconstruction surgery for men who lost their penises during World War II. The post concludes by acknowledging the contributions of British men who lost their penises in the war, which inadvertently contributed to advancements in transgender surgery.

Interesting bit of history. I wasn't aware of the pandemic of mangled sausage post WWII. Thank you.
