Oh no…?
That’s the case in doing it too early in animals as well, especially noticable in larger breeds. There’s been a longtime pushback for dogs to get spayed / neutered at later ages, than one size fits all.
Also there are other interesting studies that differ between humans and animals, such as the lifespan of animals that are neutered / spayed tends to be longer than the other way around, and supposedly in humans it’s the opposite.
I didn’t do a ton of vetting when I was researching the information though, so I don’t know how well the studies were controlled and what they accounted for.
Edit: Also some vets do offer vasectomies as an alternative to neutering, but it is usually far more expensive.
It’s not wrong, it’s just generally offensive since colloquially “it” refers to objects rather than a individual.
And as it follows, “it” is used as a insulting term when people want to dehumanize something.
Also it’s “They go” and “I go”, perfectly serviceable for singular use.
