The nonsense Wegener (Lilli Elbe) claims he was told suggests either he totally misunderstood, fantasised it, or was accurately reporting that they told him a load of nonsense - eg that they could implant a uterus that would allow him to get pregnant & birth a child.

Hischfield seems to have been a brave man but severely wrong about the science & human bodies, and also both homophobic & unthinkingly misogynistic.

Was there not also a surgeon there who was a literal Nazi & went on to do experiments in concentration camps?

Ah, thank you! I’d read it but couldn’t remember where. Must use the bookmark function!

Yeah and some of those Nazi doctors went on to work for the drug company which made THALIDOMIDE and continued to produce and sell it for years after the damage to embryos was exposed !!

A whole lot of Nazi doctors ended up in Chile and Argentina where they were willing to do as many "trans" ops as were asked for, charging a lot of US$ for the privelege. American men were the target audience and the way in was by word of mouth...Scary!
