Original Note:
The first MtF genital reassignment surgery was performed in 1922 by Magnus Hirschfeld, a Jew, at the Institute of Sexual Research. The Nazis later burned much of the Institute's research and forced Magnus into exile, before targeting transgender people in the Holocaust. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnus_Hirschfeld https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/central-european-history/article/transgender-life-and-persecution-under-the-nazi-state-gutachten-on-the-vollbrecht-case/0779A24B130C4F0CA64DB639FA6DBF46 https://daily.jstor.org/90-years-on-the-destruction-of-the-institute-of-sexual-science/
