I'm not exactly sure if banning is a good diea, but yeah there's something wrong about these surgeries and something should be done about them.

While I agree that the practice is wrong, we need to consider the parents' rights and needs in this matter.

Nope, nope, nope, you are infringing on the rights of parents to decide for their children how they want them to be.

Of course not, it's a disease and needs to be treated. Would you want an intersex child to suffer for the rest of their life because of this disorder?

Yeah, the story of David Reimer is a depressingly fucked-up one. And looking through the Wikipedia article again, I just discovered that, as icing on the already fucked-up cake, he made his twin brother simulate sex with him and even took photos of this horseshit once or twice. Seriously, this reminds me so much of the last 15 minutes or so of One Hour Photo so much it's not even funny.

Or were you talking about my story just before his?

I was referring to David Reimer's story, and erroneously thought it was the same story you posted about earlier, but then I read again to realize they are different accounts. Both stories are distressing for sure.
