Transgender Movement’s Last Defenders: Parents Who ‘Transitioned’ Their Children
By Jonathon Van Maren, European Conservative.
Across Europe, the so-called ‘affirmative model’ approach to gender dysphoria, with its brutal regimens of puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and sex change surgeries, is being abandoned. Study after study reveal that medical authorities have, at the behest of the transgender movement, been perpetrating one of the ugliest medical scandals since eugenics. Young people—children, some of them—are being castrated, mutilated by the amputation of healthy breasts, and deformed by dangerous drugs prescribed to them by medical ideologues.
We are now seeing a generation of ‘de-transitioners’—those who embarked on the path of ‘affirmative care’ to ‘transition’ from one sex to another and realized that it had given them nothing and robbed of much—testifying at statehouses across America to call for bans on the surgeries that scarred their bodies. Those testimonies are being entirely ignored by the White House, the Democratic Party, and much of the progressive press and medical establishment, with a few brave dissident exceptions. They are ignoring stories like that of Chloe Cole.
Consider part of her testimony to Congress on her 19th birthday. Cole told the politicians that her parents were told by medical professionals that the only way to address her gender dysphoria was medical intervention:
I was fast-tracked onto puberty blockers and then testosterone. The resulting menopausal-like hot flashes made focusing on school impossible. I still get joint pain and weird pops in my back, but they were far worse when I was on the blockers.
A month later, when I was 13, I had my first testosterone injection. It has caused permanent changes in my body. My voice will forever be deeper, my jawline sharper, my nose longer, my bone structure permanently masculinized, my Adam’s apple more prominent, and my fertility unknown. I look in the mirror sometimes, and I feel like a monster.
I had a double mastectomy at 15 and they tested my amputated breasts for cancer. I was cancer free of course, I was perfectly healthy. There was nothing wrong with my still-developing body, or my breasts, other than that as an insecure teenage girl, I felt awkward about it.
After my breasts were taken away from me, the tissue was incinerated. Before I was able to legally drive, I had a huge part of my future womanhood taken away from me. I will never be able to breastfeed. I struggle to look at myself in the mirror at times. I still struggle to this day with sexual dysfunction. I have massive scars across my chest and the skin grafts they used, that they took from my nipples, are weeping fluid today. They were grafted into a more masculine position, they said.
