The Wounds That Won't Heal | Detransitioner Chloe Cole | EP 319

@@blueprince2330 What is normal? Isn't normal for one person different for another? I wholeheartedly agree that transitioning as a minor is dangerous and I don't know how anyone at such a young age is deemed able to make such a life changing decision. That doesn't negate the fact that grown adults feel the need to transition though and once someone is old enough to understand the ramifications of their decision, it should be up to them.

[@knekki.]

I'm a detransitioned woman myself. I find that every story I hear about other women in my situation, is like a broken record playing my life story over and over. I'm so glad that mental healthcare professionals are seeing this pattern and shedding real, objective light on it. I developed gender/body dysphoria in early puberty, and the psychological distress would increase parallell to my body development as puberty progressed. At the age of 12/13 I concluded that I was trans and wanted to be a boy, and at 18 I changed my name and got on testosterone for three years, during this time I also had a double mastectomy. In 2020, after 3 years of body-altering hormones and 1 year post-breast removal, it finally dawned on me that this was not what I wanted or needed in life and I began to detransition. Having to announce this to everyone in my life was stressful, I couldn't help but feel a bit ashamed of myself- the idiot who had loudly proclaimed for several years that "I am a trans man, this is my truth". So there I was, at the end of my transition, masculinized and flat chested. My voice was undeniably male, facial hair, body hair, masculine distribution of fat and muscle from top to toe. For two whole years after I got off hormones, I was too physcially masculine to pass as a woman and everyone perceived me as a boy in a dress. It was shameful, frightening and disheartening not being able to blend in with my own sex. I felt like the testosterone had done far too much damage, I thought there was no coming back from this terrible mistake. I didn't want to be seen or heard, I wanted to disappear in my regret and despair. Only in the last year and a half am I finally being read as a woman again by strangers, I think my body just needed time to readjust. . Surprisingly, I never received backlash for undoing my transition. I think my family was quite relieved to have me back to my normal self. Despite coming from a non-religious background; I found peace and hope in the christian faith during the worst days of my detransition. I was unable to forgive myself, or love myself, for what I'd done to my body and for the stress I had put my loved ones through when I transitioned. But if God can forgive me and love me regardless, then I can consider my suffering atonement enough, I forgive myself finally and move on. Estrogen, time and patience helped me reclaim my femininity. I've done some voice training to help me sound less masculine. I'm still undergoing painful hair removal laser therapy but I think I'll be finished by the end of this year. I feel young and sweet and radiant again. I'm happily engaged to a wonderful man, and I've found ways to reconcile with my past choices. I know I am very lucky to have come out the other side of this as a happier, stronger person - I know several people in the detrans community who still anguish over their situation many many years after detransitioning. We have to speak up about this growing epidemic, and learn how to deal with gender dysphoria properly. I wouldn't wish this journey on anyone.

[@sueblood7793]

Yes. In my opinion all sane people must speak up. Especially those like yourself who have gone down this path. Perhaps this sounds stupid but even starting a petition, or petitions in support of Dr Peterson and against Canadian authority who wants to take his license or "re-educate" him would be a good place to start. If such a thing "went viral" it could turn the tide. PS. My father was an engineer and Mom a Jehovah's witness (want to be architect who chose being a wife and mother instead). I am neither but have great love for both (deceased) I was a tomboy but no one worried about that. Simpler times ? I was a teenager in the 1970's . Being a feminist in those days meant burning your bra and being angry at men.. Why would I want to do that? All the "men" in my life (father and bro) were wonderfully considerate and protective. And I needed that bra to stuff cotton balls in...🤣🤮

[@Maroto21]

Amazing story. I would say that society in general is not responsible for what you got through, society is simply ignorant, they have no idea what these “transitions” actually do to your body and brain, but politicians and elites who promote this horror deserve something I cant say in youtube. Sadly, and being crude, to these people your issue is nothing but an opportunity to make profits and gain power, cause it does not only feed a monstrous medical industry, but also helps to play the political game of getting one part of the society to fight with the other, which gives then power. Its the golden egg chicken, just at the cost of people like you and society in general. Again, big congrats for having been brave enough to come back to the real you without comiting suic**e in the process, cause the amount of stress, sadness, lonelyness and frustation that go along with it can be overwhelming.

The woman is like God, the life giver WOW! The woman, the counterpart of man, is named Eve, because she is the life-giver. Are you as astonished as I am at this? Who is the first Giver of life? Jehovah God! He envisioned the universe, a universe that would not be empty: it would have life. So God gave life to plants, and a higher form of life, the breath of life, to animals. And finally he created the human, the reflection of His image. WOW! Amazing! Wonderful! But then what did he do? He envisioned and created the woman to replicate what He had done. She was conceived, designed and purposed to be a LIFE-GIVER! Oh, my dear sisters in both Eve and in Christ, do you stand in wonder over who you are? Do you understand that you are the mother of all living? Do you understand that life would cease without you? Do you realize that your call is not only to conceive life, but, as Lydia Sigourney reminds us, to light the lamp of the eternal soul? To my dear brothers in Adam and in Christ, do you not realize that you would not be alive without the life-giver? Do you honor and respect women as your coheirs and coequals? Or do you see yourself as superior to women? If so, stop right now and thank God for giving you life through the life-giver. Thank God that He has provided the “crescendo of creation” to share your life. Be the husband God intended, one who honors the bride He gave you.

I agree with most everything you said but I don't think mr. Peterson said anything to Chloe about what she should have done. He's clearly saying that she was failed by every adult especially and sadly the medical community who has enough education and understanding of The Human Condition to make all of this borderline Criminal. The tragedy in all of this according to what he thinks should have been avoided at many different times and she stresses that by pointing out what they should have done in most instances and it's what they been trained to do. He is quite a credible Authority on all of this because he has the same education, and probably more, as these professionals should have and I think that he points out quite often that they know there's something fundamentally wrong with what is happening but are too afraid to do what's right because of the system they are in.

We should all remember that trans people make up about 2% of our population, less of those people get surgery, and far less of those people de-transition.

I am a 52-year-old female, married 27 years to a wonderful man with two adult sons. I grew up at a time when (thankfully) kids were allowed to go through all the normal growing pains, without having those pains (physical and emotional) used to manipulate their young thoughts and feelings. But I was a tom boy. I hung out with boys, rode dirt bikes and BMX bikes - hated dolls and Barbies. I developed earlier than my friends, and definitely had what we now call 'body dysmorphia' ... but what girl didn't? I have thought about girls like me, tom boys growing up in this broken world, not allowed to just grow into themselves. I think how different my experience would be, if I were a child now, and it's terrifying ... and then to listen to this girl, this younger version of me, having actually lived through it. It just makes me weep. Yeah, I was a tom boy - but I am fully and happily female. Enjoyed pregnancy, and breastfeeding, and nurturing my children. And that all could have been taken away .. just as it is being taken away now, but so-called "well-meaning" adults. It should be a crime. Instead - it's a crime to speak against it.

You nailed it exactly.

[@potterj09]

Thanks so much for sharing an insight here. I hope people in going back to the 70's and 80's growing up it should have been okay to either be a "tomboy" or actually be attracted to one. I was born in 1982 in a small town where I had two notable crushes both on very assertive and competitive girls, both tomboys & still wonderfully cute in my opinion & respectfully "shapely", who may be considered Tomboyish yet masculine in ways to a limited degree. They both crushed hard on me also. One might laugh at this but I considered them both great people. I could imagine if they were bombarded with the literature of today they may have seriously considered physical changes. I am In no way against this, but now as a 40yr old my first thought is this: "Why is no one putting forward the contention that perhaps "The wisest time to make the best decision with bodily physical alternations with results that will repercuss into the next 40 to 50yrs of your remaining life may not be at best during puberty where ones ability to make rational thoughts and considerations is probably not just inopportune but terrible". Since those times I've only ever had heterosexual relationships, with obvious women lol. My proclivity has always been hetero & with no phobia I can honestly say women in a honorable & non-objectifying way are my thing. I'm into the normalities, with one exception which has carried on since those childhood years: A woman who cannot deal with a spider on their own is the biggest turnoff I've ever experienced. Not joking at all.

This is so gut wrenching to watch, as a teen I was exactly like chloe, to the point of coming out to a couple of friends as trans, creating social media profiles where I presented as a boy, binding my chest, only ever cutting my hair short and so on. My only difference is I never came out to my parents as I knew they wouldn't support me, and therefore was never able to get medicated or even remotely close to having that surgery. But just like her, at around 16, I realized that that gender indentity was not for me and that I was indeed a woman, just more masculine then some, but had I had different parents, had I been affirmed by medical profesionals at that age, had I been socially incentivized to go through it, I 100% would've, and that is a scary thought, I was a confused and insecure teen, easily convinced by the internet and my peers, desperately seeking acceptance and some form of happiness with how I looked, I thought that being a man would "fix everything" I'd be more handsome as a man than I was pretty as a woman, I'd be stronger, more athletic, I'd be able to wear masculine clothes without judgement, get attention from the girls I was into at the time, not have to suffer through the "horrible reality of being a woman", this could've been me, and I'm so glad it didn't turn out like that.

Having lost a baby was devastating so I can’t even imagine what it would have been like to wake up one day and realize I gave up the ability to even try entirely. And not being able to breastfeed my rainbow baby that we were blessed with after the loss was another horrible experience even though I am fully abled and breastfed my babies prior to that.

The reason why parents cannot be blamed is because they’re are guilt tripped and scared into believing this because of the threat of their kids removing themselves from the earth (you know what i mean). It’s straight up manipulation by the medical establishment to comply. Parents SEEK help through medical professionals, wouldn’t it make sense to believe mental health personnel who went to school for these things? They let them down and should be held accountable and responsible. The child is automatically free from responsibility because they have no idea what’s going on! Even with parental consent if medical providers provide this type of “treatment” to kids, they should be brought to the courts. it shouldn’t be PARENTS to tell doctors “please don’t take the healthy body parts off my daughter”. they should KNOW that it’s a bad idea.

Do you think that may happen because most parents avoid talking about period? Here in Brazil, we speak openly about this, and no one seems to feel uncomfortable with it; even little boys know women go through it and understand they can get emotionally unstable sometimes. But when I went on a cultural exchange to the US, it seemed a tabu to talk about period, and they also considered it extremely disgusting, which I believe contributes to girls hating their bodies and the experience. They should know about it from an early age and they must understand that it is something natural, part of who they are; there's nothing wrong or unfair about it.

[@er6730]

@@anacarolinarochasantos I think a lot of it is being sorted into the "woman" category. Adults tend to mostly treat boys and girls the same. And suddenly puberty hits and people stop thinking of you as "a kid" and suddenly there are expectations and restrictions that weren't there before. For myself, I was happy to be a girl, never wanted to be a boy, but I didn't want to grow up and be a woman. I saw that my dad and uncles were jolly and relaxed during family gatherings, and my mom and aunts were constantly working. And when I was about 13, my preferred ways of helping became strange. Like, while setting something up, I might find myself being pushed away from carrying tables and chairs, and toward wiping down the tables and getting the food ready. This pressure came from the adults' example mostly, but also from the boys not wanting me there and the girls giving me "you're so immature unlike us" vibes. I was pretty disgruntled about the whole thing for a while. (Honestly, still am, but I don't have the teen fervour, lol) I think that's natural. I'm a grown woman now, and am fine with myself not fitting into some kind of feminine mold. It feels weird and self-conscious as a teen, but you grow into yourself and it's fine. I'm not the stereotype of the anxious, gentle mother who loves to feed her family, but I'm fine with that. I'm the mom who encourages the kids to do things that in hindsight, were pretty dangerous and maybe a mistake, because it was fun and stretching for their confidence. I was the one to rough house with them, because it's fun! I'm definitely the emotional supporter and the one they run to for hugs like a "proper mother", but also I do wish that these creatures didn't have to eat so often, as I hate cooking! I have never felt "mom guilt" about leaving kids at a babysitter for the evening to go out and have fun, but I'm also completely obsessed with my children and love being a SAHM. I'm naturally quite strong, and much prefer physically difficult work to tediously detailed work, which apparently is more "masculine". However, I have a close group of friends that I need to see often, just to talk, which apparently is "feminine". I don't really wear makeup, but I like getting dressed up once in a while. What I'm saying is that I think the teens these days think that everyone needs to fit into a stereotype, and if they don't completely fit this mold, probably they need to change themselves to fit another mold. I feel very sorry for them. Life isn't like that, and I wish that was more acknowledged. It's so strange to me that in the age of "acceptance", it can't be okay to be a woman who doesn't think, look, and act like everyone might expect without having some sort of identity crisis. The lines are even more rigid than when I grew up in a very traditional area in the 80s and 90s. For me, although it was weird and embarrassing, the physical changes were not the biggest part of it. I felt quite strongly that I was not beautiful and never would be because I was big, round face, glasses, and there was a bit of despair and hopelessness there. I had accepted at age ten that I'd never look like a princess, I was more like a giant. So I decided that I wouldn't worry about it, and wouldn't try to be pretty with make-up because that would make it worse by making me look ridiculous. At least I didn't look hideous, and I'd work on having a good personality and hope that would be acceptable. Only in my 30s did I look back and think "oh, actually I was quite beautiful". I was Jennifer Lawrence (obviously not as pretty) during a time when beautiful meant Kiera Knightley.

It should be 25 when a persons brain is 100% developed. ….. I don’t know where this is going.

Dear Chloe, I've been following your story for a year or so. I must comment on what beautiful and intelligent and well-spoken woman you are. To have come through all of this with such a balanced and sound mind is a testament to what a strong and courageous woman you are. I believe that through your pain, what you have learned will be instrumental to the healing of many others who are suffering. You have experienced this for a great purpose. You will go so far in life with your depth of understanding and insight. You've come through this as the courageous and strong person that you had longed to be as a child! And, you are beautiful and feminine in all of that strength! I pray that knowing these things to be true will imbue you with a well-earned sense of confidence. I imagine that your parents have provided you much support despite their bewilderedment through all of this as well. It shows in your resilience and ability to express yourself, that despite the mistakes they made in parenting, they love and support you immensely! I am so proud of you as a human being and young woman!

[@Shelenamarissamooney]

I was so close to suffering this same thing. About 3 years ago I was taught in my elementary school about the lgbt and that if I didn’t like my body I was trans. Me only being 12, I went along with it. It wasn’t until just about a month ago when I started to realize the truth. Thankfully, I never took any blockers or hormones or anything. The furthest I got was wearing a binder and legally changing my name (which I’ve now just legally changed back). I thank god and my guides everyday for not letting me go any further to mutilate my body. I’ve now lost quite a few friends because of my views on being trans, but that’s ok. Im gonna fight for what I believe

There are men that act a bit feminine, and women that act a bit masculine, and that's just the diversity of men and women in the world. If everyone could just accept themselves as who they are, there shouldn't be a need for transition, especially for children and teens.

[@Eragarev]

​@@dark3031 This is a narrative that the hard-left seems to have a big problem with. When the conversation about the nuanced crossover between male and female behavior comes up, they demand that people frame this phenomenon as gender-fluidity or gender-neutrality when that particular relationship with gender is merely their prerogative. I'm gay and I view the subtle differences in my gender expression as only the flexibility of the male gender. I do not identify as a woman at all and I am very uncomfortable expressing myself in a feminine way. I recognize the femininity inside of me and embrace it, but all that nuance gets boiled down into a sense of maleness on my own terms. Sadly, the folks on the hard-left really don't like that. They think the system should have no rules, and I think it has rules, but that they can be bent and occasionally broken. They want to fixate on gender and turn it into their whole identity, I want my gender identity to be on the back-burner at all times. My identity far outweighs my gender identity. This all being said, the right is only coming around to issues like transitioning and gender expression because the left led the charge. Maybe the left goes too far sometimes, but they are also the champions of real freedom of expression. These conversations needed to be had.

[@dark3031]

@@Eragarev I'm sure everyone is OK with having these conversations, at an appropriate age. But watching at Chloe talked about her experiences in the video, it's just heart breaking how children and teens are being pushed into doing something so drastic and irreversible. Like some girls may just be feeling depressed or anxiety due to early puberty, and possibly a bit tomboyish, then there will be doctors or experts coming in to say "You're definitely a trans and you should transition, that's better for you".

I am an old man and I cried while listening to the tragedy of this most beautiful, most intelligent, most courageous young lady. My God! What a lesson in humility as well as outpouring strength that emanates from her. Also, what a vivid view of the deep empathy and concern from Jordan for this girl in particular but also for any, all kids that face similar personal, social and institutional experiences. At the same time that my love just sprouts out of me for Chloe, there is an equally significant amount of hatred, anger, and horrific disgust for the "professionals" who tossed Chloe into a tornado of emotional turbulence that will probably follow her throughout her life. Chloe's strength in accepting her own actions, and being aware of the consequences for her future life, becomes even more striking when we realize that she will use her position to help turn around the current insanity of "professionals" in our society to remain as an emotionally untouched gang of ghetto-camp-like executioners and thus save innumerable kids from suffering like she did and still does.

I started to experience severe gender dysphoria symptoms at the age of 16. Never had I ever had doubts regarding my gender before that. And then, suddenly it started. I would spend hours convincing myself I was meant to be a boy and with some help of social media and an "accepting" environment I was at some point hundred per cent sure about me being transgender. When people tried to tell me the opposite, I opposed it with all my might. I was lonely, exhausted, full of self-hatred and shame. Every single day for several months was a living hell. I was waiting for my 18th birthday to come just to start transitioning. And then, one day I visited a therapist. She was a brilliant woman I admired and she told me many beautiful things about womanhood. From that moment something changed inside of me. Dysphoria started slowly vanishing and I eventually realized it was there not because I was transgender. I was just a hurt, vulnerable woman with traumas and I needed to do something about that, definitely not about my genitals. It's been almost a year and I am now glad to say that I live happily as a woman, have wonderful relationship and fully embrace my femininity. Circumstances saved me from the horrible things I wanted to do to myself. But if I had had a chance back then, I would have immediately started irreversible procedures.

In my country, it is 16. But they are not allowed alcohol or cigarettes until they are 18 and not allowed to vote for an MP for Westminster until 18. We often joke that people can get married here at 16, but cannot celebrate it properly with a few drinks or even vote on matters that concern them. It should be 18 across the board in my view because internationally, under unicef guidelines, you are a minor until the age of 18. Although I do know some 16 year olds who are a lot more mature than their peers, but across the board as an age group, they are immature. In fact, we are all immature until the age of 25 because our rational logical parts of our brains, do not mature until then. So I reckon then that anyone under the age of 5, should not be transitioning to anything because they are too immature and to do anything that will disrupt brain development will cause untold damage. The same for drinking alcohol, smoking cigarettes etc. I fully believe it should be upped to 25, based on the brain still developing before then.

Shame on the nurses that went along with it. This is exactly an example of when a nurse can decline to participate by being a conscientious objector. A nurse’s job is to protect their Pt. On a rare occasion, this means protecting the Pt from a physician. On a rarer occasion, a nurse may need to physically prevent a physician from putting a Pt in danger by putting time and space between the Pt and physician. This synario sometimes occurs in a teaching hospital where a surgical resident is reckless and a nurse must put the brakes on to keep a Pt safe. Lastly, the anesthesiologist should have put the brakes on and cancelled a double mastectomy on a 15 year old. The surgeon may be a candidate for child endangerment charges and/or child neglect if it’s within the statue of limitations and applies to what occured. A double mastectomy without a valid therapeutic indication for the necessary treatment of a diagnosable physical ailment on a child is reckless endangerment.

I’m 57 and have three beautiful, grown children, and happily married for 36 years to their father. When I was 13-14 years old, I was tall, skinny, flat chested, with hairy legs and a small, whisper of mustache that I didn’t dare to tweeze, because I was so worried it would grow back stronger. I didn’t get my period until I was a couple of months away from my 14th birthday. I was attending a small private school with about 16 kids in my class, 9 girls and 7 boys. We, the girls, kept tracking who got started menstruating and I was the very last one. There was one girl who developed giant breast as a young child. She got her period at 9 years old. At first, I was happy that I didn’t have to deal with that, but by the time I was 14 and hardly started to show any development, I was seriously worried that I was actually a male who was born with a female organ between my legs. I also got along with boys much easier and found them more interesting. Anyway, when finally I got my first period, it was a big relief and slowly the next couple of years I forgot about my thoughts of being a male. However, even now I feel that men are much easier to understand than women. I do have some male and female friends, but the female friendships are so much more complex and difficult to navigate.

I'm transgender and going through a full male puberty until 18 before I realised I was trans, I feel like I'm in the same shoes as Chole where I have all these male sex characteristics from my puberty that shouldn't be there and I need to transition to be perceived by people in life as a woman so I can just live like everyone else. I'm 20 now and on feminising hormones and my life is getting better and better but just like Chole, I will always have the effects of those years of testosterone for life and it hurts sometimes. Chole and I may have different circumstances with her being a cisgender woman who's biologically female being given testosterone treatment to essentially go through a male puberty whilst I'm a transgender woman who's biologically male and went through a male puberty naturally but we ultimately face the same consequences now of having to live with getting rid of reversible male sex characteristics and living with irreversible ones for life. The point is that my side of the story is not the only side that exists here and there will always be some detransitioners out there who need support after a detransition and ideally more help and support before gender-affirming care is provided to ensure that there are no other mental health issues like EDs, Social Anxiety, Sexual Trauma (as a symptom of sex abuse is wanting to be rid of one's genitals) or neurodivergence. - And if any other these are present, then they are treated with very special care and the patient is challenged much more so that they can fully separate the part of the their experiences of life rooting in gender dysphoria from the other experiences and parts of their life rooted in these other problems before any further action is taken. They should also be made fully aware of the fact that puberty blockers alone will flatline bone density development and stops sexual function, which can be especially irreversible when cross-sex hormones are added to start the development of the sex characteristics typically associated with the opposite biological sex. - But this is a sad reality that trans people have to face regardless of what they do in life because of the uncontrollable consequence of simply being born with a defect in their sex chromosomes that leads the sex anatomy of one biological sex and a brain structure that make it feel normal and natural to have the sex characteristics typically associated with the opposite biological sex to what they are. And because of this, them having to choose between either having the correct sex characteristics for them to live their lives whilst losing their fertility or keeping their fertility but having all the wrong sex characteristics on their body, some being for life. And just as equally importantly, Chole's side of the story is not the only side that exists either and whilst there are kids born cisgender who mistakenly go down this pathway, there are kdis who are born transgender and their brain structures are wired in birth from birth for it to just feel completely natural to have sex characteristics of the opposite biological sex to what they are and there is no such therapy or magical neurosurgery that can change this immutable part of their personhood they are born with. Gender affirming care (NOT SURGERY FOR MINORS. - I ABSOLUTELY BELIEVE ANY SURGERY RELATING TO GENDER-AFFIRMATION SHOULD BE 18+ AND NEVER PERFORMED ON MINORS, WHICH IS THE ONE THING I COMPLETELY AGREE WITH FOR CHOLE TO NOT HAVE HAD ANY SURGERY BELOW THE AGE OF 18) is still very much necessary for these kids if they figure out they're trans and can proceed with caution with people around them certain that there is absolutely no other mental health issue that could be the root of this experience of life and them being fully aware of the aforementioned implications of blockers without a cross-sex hormone for the critical period of bone density growth and the loss of fertility. Both of these sides, transgender transitioners and cisgender destransitioners, need to find a middle ground and unite to help make more people aware of trans people, what they truly experience so that people, especially teens, who suspect they're trans can have a very open-minded, safe, slow and comfortable exploration into what the immutable lifelong transgender experience of life from birth is like and if it is truly what they're experiencing or if there are mental health issues with self esteem, eating disorders, anxiety, depression or suicidality are the cause of discontent with thoughts of developing / a need to get rid of already existing sex characteristics on their bodies. This is to help the kids who are born trans and are trans for life, whether they or you like it or not, have a safe transition with support around them so that they develop the right sex characteristics that they need for life to thrive and for kids who are born cisgender and are cisgender for life to be directed away from transitioning when there is actually a different underlying cause for the dysphoria they are experiencing. If a teen transitions, realises that they were cisgender all along and then has to face a detransition with all the mental struggles with that then I believe hey should have all the love and support of people including the trans community on their side to help them through it.

It took me a very long time to come to terms with it and I only came out of the closet a few years ago with my friends but not with my family, I'm 32 years old, but I'm glad I took the time to just process it and make the decision to come out when I was already a grown adult because now I think I understand it more That being said, What irks me about this modern gender narrative is that it targets kids, I mean if we won't allow kids to consume alcohol, smoke cigarettes, use recreational drugs, have a driver's license, watch pornography or R Rated films and play violent video games before a certain age then why in the hell is thus okay?? That's the hypocrisy of it all that gets to me....society frowns upon sexual relations between minors and adults, which is abhorrent and wrong but yet try to push that gender reassignment for minors is okay?? I don't understand how the advocates for this kind of logic make peace with that And studies have shown that many of this teens who go through puberty and are experiencing what they are told is gender dismorphia, might in actual fact just be gay, lesbian or bisexual... So not only is this extremely immoral against kids but it's also extremely homophobic because the logic of some of these parents I think might be to not want a gay child but rather to have what would be considered a "normal boy or normal girl" if they convince them to transition...

The ideas we are talking about here are the tip of the iceberg. Which leads me to believe only normal heterosexual behaviors should be tolerated and taught to children. Two consenting adults being gay is a minor abomination that leads to the extreme abomination of pedophilia and perhaps worse evils that we haven't conceived yet.

I’m also an autistic/ADHD female and relate to her experience of being able to connect with the boys in class more so than the girls. The boys shared my roudy/off-beat sense of humor and I could talk to them about things I liked such as science and video games that girls did not have as much interest in. I also was linguistically developed and had a knack for drawing/creativity like her. However, instead of being told I was “like a boy” I heard feminist ideas like “girls can do anything boys can” “girls can do what boys do in heels” “girl power” and that is what I firmly identified in. So I prided myself in being a strong/determined girl who can beat the boys at anything they do and took pride in being a girl who was her own individual. As a child that may have served me, but as I grew older I had to reteach myself not to compete with men and embrace femininity. It is interesting to see how people with similar temperament can come to different conclusions based on the ideas they heard around them growing up.

I can relate a lot,, from the male side...I'm "ADHD," hypercreative, and I wonder if I wasn't also autistic.. As a kid (late 70s-80s)I was pretty much an extreme introvert and silent as far as "normal" social interaction goes *unless* it involved a project I was really into. I just felt no need to yammer about random shit the way so many people do. (I talked to MYSELF a lot... still do). I preferred to write or draw to express my thoughts and questions which tended to be highly focused on exploring nature, geography and the built environment -- anything I could see .But even that,, mainly for my own consumption. For most of my childhood I was totally unathletic, uncoordinated, runty and skinny....compounded by being a year younger than everybody else in my grade. I was a constant reader and mostly all-A type student until sophomore year HS, as I realized smart kids weren't popular and tended to get bullied. Combined with my interests in the arts, including dabbling in drama as well as years of band and choir, it mightve been very easy to push me into the "trans" camp IF Id been subjected to 24/7 surround-sound propaganda about it the way kids are today, and IF I hadn't been raised in a stable two-parent home and the Baptist church with traditional Christian values.

It's all propaganda that targets people who already feel self-conscious about their bodies. Through this interview, other interviews on the topic, and the types of porn that exists today, the indoctrination is obvious. It's a shame there a re people who go through with it and then regret it. I hope she gets the actual care she needs. Sad that the surgeon she talked to after didnt do anything to try to help her

[@The-Finisher]

Surgeons do what they do, cut into people. Yeah there seems to be a connection with anime, porn, internet social contagion, the hell of puberty and gender clinics chomping at the bit to hand out meds and preform surgery on children.

How was I supposed to know??? Just like the lefty s h ! t heads, people on the other side are just as pathetically unable to take personal responsibility for THEIR decisions. Everyone on all sides is a whining spoiled child.

I don't understand how this is legal. The doctors should be in jail. Young people's life's are being ruined and there is ONE political party that is all for this.

As a graduate of Master’s in Psychology, everything that Chloe said about her therapist is so appaling. I agree with Dr. Peterson 100%. This is so sad what other therapists are doing with children😢💔and also with parents who relied on them for help. It’s making me mad. As a mother with a daughter, my heart goes out to Chloe and her parents.

[@svengangert2683]

The thing is, you don't even have to be a graduate of masters in psychology to understand that "wanting to be a boy", or "feeling like a boy trapped in a female body", wasn't even the issue to begin with. All you have to do is to listen to her and it becomes more than clear. In her distorted self image, She thought she doesn't look female enough and thought she could be a boy, as an alternative. That has been made clear in the fist half an hour of this conversation.

[@evar1104]

As a feminist and a leftist who feels betrayed by the ones I used to trust I can only thank Dr. Peterson for his advocacy and Chloe for her brave testimony. This absurdity and horror cannot and will not last forever.

[@mindylatteier484]

What I like most about your comment is that it shows how absurd it is that this has become a political issue. These are children of humanity. We should all be invested in caring for our youth in the best possible ways.

[@nicolenewsome4863]

Maybe you should switch parties it will only get worse from here I ask you to reflect on the real reason you picked to be a leftist to begin with and I mean really reflect on it. I ask you to ask yourself two questions number 1 why did I become a leftist is it because that's all I have known because of society and my own family and friends? number 2 does the liberal or conservative party personally match up with my morals and values and what I personally believe on an emotional level?

[@mariposa9506]

I'm sorry if I am wrong, but I don't believe this is a real comment, as leftists don't generally refer to themselves as leftist.

[@work.alezcollection]

@@mariposa9506 As a lesbian girl born and raised in Los Angeles, who was once considered a “leftist”, this could very well be a true comment. I can’t live in this absurdity anymore. It was tolerable before, before children got involved mainly, but now the LGBTQ community begins to feel more and more like a cult and I can’t be apart of it anymore. I’ll keep liking girls because that’s not something I can change, but I refuse to wear that rainbow flag with pride anymore. Detransitioners being shunned by the trans community, children being condoned to transition before even reaching puberty, not being able to have my own opinion without my own “community” cancelling me or calling me a bigot for having a different view, having to explain my pronouns or get cancelled or shunned for accidentally using the wrong pronouns on somebody, LGBTQ community defending biological men in taking over womens’ sports, drag shows being performed for children in the school library, etc. It’s over. This is all so damaging.

[@wndbrnrd74]

I feel exactly the same way. I consider myself very openminded, but this shit is just batcrazy! You can't escape biology and to see adults stimulating children to go down this slippery road of no return is just mind boggling and disgusting 🤮

[@jc_alpha]

My goodness, I cried watching this. She’s describing typical behavior we’ve seen for ages in teens, yet today that same behavior leads to professionals suggesting that kids mutilate themselves. This is absolutely abhorrent. And the fact that she was told to stay quiet under the presumption that if she didn’t she would hurt others who want to go through the same process shows how truly upside down things have become. I hope whoever was involved in allowing this to happen is sued out of existence!

[@adawg3032]

Kids don’t mutilate themselves. The doctors mutilate the kids. All the kids did was listen to the grown ups.

How much of the pressure for her to stay silent do you think is financially motivated?

[@ianmatlock1]

As the 60 year old grandparent of 8 grandchildren I found this interview heartbreaking. Your quiet grace talking about this was a lesson for all 18 year olds. This is a message that needs to be shared, and who better than someone that's had to walk the walk. What adults choose to do with their bodies is up to them (as long as they pay for it) and what they call themselves is up to them as long as it's within the law. However, mutilating children like this is appalling and needs to be stopped.
