Hysterectomy, Double Mastectomy, and Deep Trans Regret at 24 | Katie Anderson

[@brandyb2931]

My stepdaughter had a breast reduction because her breasts were so large they were giving her back issues. Her insurance would not cover it. She had to pay 9k to have her breasts reduced to a C cup. Her insurance does however, cover gender transition. So if she wanted her breasts completely removed, they would've covered it. We are living in 🤡 world!

It’s crazy that the insurance companies would decide what they are going to pay for based on politics and not actual healthcare.

She should've said she identifies as one of thousands of genders that have reduced but not eliminated female expression and then maybe insurance politics would've covered it

As an aside it is frustrating to me to hear that 18 year old girls are getting testosterone after a single phone consult. As a born natural man who needs testosterone to be healthy, I had to go through months of labs and appts and hoops to get medicine I needed (testosterone) for low T. First they even made me (again I am and always have been male and have never questioned that for even a moment) take a medicine that elderly women take first. It gave me hot flashes and sensitive nipples. After that and a half dozen lab tests I finally did get it. But how are they getting it so easily?

[@ptbird1961]

I'm 70. I never felt comfortable with my body growing up or with the girlie-girl things. I was a tomboy. I enjoyed sports. I'm so glad I wasn't exposed to the mass media as it is today. I started having fun as a woman in my late 20s when I was buying clothes, working, and building my confidence. Maturing into one's body takes time. The rush to make such a drastic change to one's body that will carry a lifetime effect on a person seems criminal to me. I'm thankful that Katie and Chloe are speaking up about this. It seems the focus in today's world is to feel good by getting a rush or high, which is usually just a temporary fix. I wish you both a good and happy life.

That's actually STILL the case. It's quite hard for a young childless woman to get their tubes tied. Doctors just won't do it. "Oh you'll change your mind about not having kids one day." Shit like that. But if that some woman said, "Remove my uterus and mangle my genitalia into a freakish penis-like mass." (Which would render them unable to have children of course.) They wouldn't even be questioned and the doctors would be happy to do it. Things are just getting INSANE.

[@carolineconley5888]

I'm a mental health professional. I have worked with people who have eating disorders, schizophrenia, and severe depression just to name a few. In eating disorders, it is common for them to believe they are overweight when they weigh around 100 pounds or less. If an eating disorder went seeking a weight loss surgery because they believe they are fat, would a doctor do it? In one client with schizophrenia, he was absolutely convinced that he had a machine in his head and he traveled all over the state looking for a surgeon to remove the device from his brain because well, if you believe you have a device in your brain then obviously, you have a device in your brain, right? Needless to say, he never found a surgeon willing to do it. Severe depression, they believe they are worthless and unlovable. Should I affirm them because of their beliefs that they are worthless? Excellent work Katie and Chloe. My hearts aches for those who truly feel uncomfortable in their bodies but surgery is not the answer. Also, I worry my career is at stake for speaking out against transitioning.

The nurse told her that being a tomboy in childhood was a "textbook gender dysphoria"? WHAT? I am a female who was growing up with my twin brother and was a 100% tomboy because we were best friends. Robot was my favourite toy, not Barbie, and Mutant Ninja Turtles was my favourite cartoon. So what? I actually thought every girl was a tomboy because I had no image of girls my age doing tea parties - many played football with boys. So what? Being tomboy means nothing, absolutely nothing. Perfectly natural. If anyone asks me as a child if I want to be a boy - I would have answered: "of course, who wouldn't?" It would have sounded cool to me because my brother was cool. I grew up to become a 100% heterosexual woman who loves girly things, too. What's being a tomboy in childhood got to do with anything? In fact, wearing shorts, T-Shirt and jeans as a girl child is very practical and comfortable, and what girl child won't want to play a football for fun once in a while. What a joke.

Oh come on, you know exactly why they say you're too young ... they want to make sure you really don't want to pop a few more out.

My sister (80) and myself (77) were talking about this nonsense that’s going on today. We were both tomboys and wished we were boys. But back then boys had so much more freedom than girls and we wanted that freedom and to have adventures too! I read boys books and adult books, I certainly wasn’t a girly girl. As we grew up we realised that we didn’t really want to be boys but we worked to get the important things for girls and women - equal pay for equal work, equal opportunities, sexual freedom (up to a point), the ability to travel the world without a man at your side (unless you wanted him there). We, and our sisters of the world, achieved that and so much more but there are still barriers to overcome. So I look at young people like this young woman and my heart bleeds for her. She will never know the joy of carrying a child to term and holding her baby in her arms. And before any of you Trans people start shouting about the fact that not all women can have babies - this young woman probably would have been able to like the majority of women. You and your sick and twisted ideology have taken that away from her! And, let’s get one thing straight, I am NOT a CIS person, an ovary bearing person or any of those other demeaning terms you wish to use about me and my sisters. WE ARE WOMEN!

I was a tomboy too, and I used to tell my parents I "should" have been born a boy. "Well, you NOT" wasn't the answer I wanted to hear, but it's the truth. But if I would've been born a few years later, society would've "diagnosed" me as a trans boy. As an adult, the vast majority of my coworkers have always been male, and my work clothes have always been Carhartts, a hard hat, and steel toe boots. But I can still enjoy being feminine, like at the family reunion where my profile pic was taken (my Facebook profile pic, in contrast, is my hard hat, lol). It's scary what's being done to kids now, and I'm so grateful for courageous women like these, who are speaking out about the dangers. It's fine to be a tomboy! It's fine to be a feminine boy!

I am 63. When I was a girl, I was an absolute tomboy. I had no interest in dolls, played football with the boys, climbed trees, and looked for frogs in the creek. I liked the freedom that boys had and claimed it as my own. I often said I wished I was a boy. My mother tried to shame me into wearing dresses but I didn’t care and only complied when we had to go to church each Sunday. thank God I wasn’t born during these times because I probably would have wanted to “transition“. It wasn’t until I was in college that I settled in to being comfortable and thankful to be a woman. I raised a wonderful daughter of my own who happens to have always been very feminine and loved dolls, dress up , makeup and her “girly girl“ things. She still loves her make up and matching outfits and has a corporate job where everyone appreciates her style and pulled together appearance. I am still a tomboy, I just purchased my dream farm and love getting dirty in the mud, milking goats and working my land in my overalls. To each her own!

I had a hand full of friends and acquaintances we went canoeing, camping and we fished with my brothers, Then at 16 my body bloomed, breasts, curves, and I was tall. I was by 18, looking 21 and could go to discos to dance. That’s when the “men” vs high school boys were much more aggressive in pursuing girls, all those guys wanted was sex. What a turn off. Didn’t help being called Prudence Pig, Prude, frigid, etc. I matured physically fast, but still a girl. Other girls were on the pill. I was terrified of guys.

I am almost 40. It takes years to feel confident in our bodies. Maternity helps A LOT. We see how wonderful our bodies can be and experience unconditional love. We start seeing ourselves how our children see us. To them we are beautiful no matter what. Cross culturally women experience discomfort and ackwardness in our adolescence. It gets better with time as we mature. Young girls need to hear this more often... it is normal to feel that way... and eventually you'll get over it. Womanhood is not a feeling , it is a physical reality we all experience. Wearing pants and liking sports does not make you a man.

As a result, the main cohort is very different - adolescent or teen girls - who don't receive the safeguarding that the 2003 generation did. That is one of the key reasons attributed to why regret and/or detransition is far more common nowadays. S E GM do t o r g says the regret or detrans rate may be as high as 30% today

Wow Katie, you gave such a powerful and hopeful interview. I’ve heard so many people claim coming out as trans is brave. But IMO, recognising a mistake and owning it is far braver. And the fact that you took responsibility to work through it deserves so many kudos!

[@arcticfffox]

I'm always baffled by the stories where people say they thought they were a transgender person because they didn't fit the common stereotypes. When I was a kid it was perfectly normal that there were girly boys and boyish girls. And majority of kids were in fact neutral. There was nothing striking in their outward expression that would suggest they are feminine or masculine. I wonder if it's a cultural thing but as someone growing up in Central Europe, I don't feel that gender was emphasized as much as it appears in stories of these people coming from the USA or Canada. One can't put gender on interests. One can't say that a boy who likes to play with dolls or paint his nails is a girl or a girl that is only interested in sports is a boy. That's insane. I believe that society should rather stop catering to stupid stereotypes and create healthy role models for kids who deviate from "the norm" instead of suggesting them hormonal therapy and SRS. Tell me what kind of world is this if universal health care insurance in some countries can cover the treatment for transgender people but refuses to cover birth control pills for biological women who have hormonal issues that severely reduce quality of their life? How come anyone isn't questioning why it's still so hard for many girls to get proper information on how to fight hormonal imbalances, PMS and abnormal periods? I find it absurd how I hear from everywhere how fragile and sensitive hormonal systems are and how hard it is to figure out what's wrong, yet when it comes to transition they don't seem to think twice about how will individuals respond to hormones of the opposite sex.

I was a tomboy and into masculine things up through middle school and even through my late teens I wasn’t very interested in the typical girl things. Most of my friends were boys because I preferred staying out of drama. I STILL prefer that. But the number 1 issues I have always struggled with is hating my body and never fitting in nor belonging with anyone or any group. It is NORMAL for women and girls to feel this way. THAT is what we need to be teaching kids. Chloe you are asking the RIGHT questions. I’m so sorry you both didn’t have women with the same experiences to mentor you and learn from. The education and medical systems have been corrupted and you’ve experienced the brunt of it. You both are so brave for coming forward with your experiences. You’re helping so many others. ❤

Your body is a precious thing. You are blessed with vibrant good health; your body is functioning well and giving you life. (Even if you have physical challenges, your body is working hard to provide the best life for you that it can.) I think in time you will come to appreciate your body. At the same time, it's okay to quit fixating on your body and spend more time living an active, full life, helping others and making a difference using whatever skills and abilities you have that bring you satisfaction and joy. I do think that's what Chloe is doing now, and I applaud her for it.

Sorry, as a physician I do not believe you: we (anesthesia) and obstetricians of course, know way too well what each consecutive caesarian delivery means. It means increasing chances of running into a life threatening post partum hemorrhage because of placenta accreta. The likelihood of having your placenta sticking too much to the uterus increases with EVERY repeated caesarian. So I am not buying that someone who had 4, 5 (😢😢😢😢) cesareans would be denied a tubal ligation.

You know when I was young, I always felt feminine, as I grew it only increased. As I grew, I realized I had no deep connections with any men as mentors, my father felt a little distant. I longed to do what men do and to learn what it meant to be a man, but did not know how to do them or be a man. I know it sounds simple, but for me, I had never taken pride in my own life nor taken responsibility for myself. I was lazy and enabled. Then a bit later I had grown friendships with a group of men who started teaching me simple things a man should do and be: how to use tools, how to tie a tie, change a tire, try things I feared, and explore life. How to learn anything, and how to fight with integrity and honor, and how to be brave and adventurous, and to do whatever must be done to support those I love. Then without even realizing it, all the feeling of femininity were gone. I felt a harmony of being established as a person. I have not felt feminine for more than 12 years now, and I thank God everyday for it. I am a man, and am grateful to be who I am. I am not and was never an accident.

Thank you for sharing your life’s experience. It is undoubtedly helping others. It proves that people are more complex than the narrative dictated by promoters of gender ideology. It shows that we evolve over time and that we are meant to grow and benefit from the mentorship of others and with the wisdom that comes with age and experience. We are not stagnant and we are certainly not meant to be established and complete in childhood or adolescence. It only proves that what is happening with the mutilation of Children’s bodies in he name of gender reassignment is insane and completely unacceptable and goes completely against human nature.

I am a woman. And if I know how to use tools and change a tire, it does not make me masculine. It just makes me a person who knows how to use tools and change a tire.

Don't ask young men what it means to be a man. They're even more confused about masculinity than young women. The whole idea of what it means to "be a man" is dramatic nonsense touted by inauthentic men who don't know themselves (or don't accept themselves), and women who want to manipulate men. Behavior isn't gender. Be yourself.
