This is a report from Fox News, but as we all know much of the US media won't report on this stuff.

A detransitioner in the US is suing Kaiser Foundation Hospitals after they performed a double mastectomy on her at thirteen. She is being represented by the same law firm as Chloe Cole, another young detransitioner.

Quote from article:
Now 18 years old, Jane is accusing the hospital system of "intentional fraud and concealment" involving her gender transition, alleging the doctors pushed her into the procedure and characterized her gender transition as the only way to treat her preexisting mental health problems.

"I don't think I should've been allowed to change my sex before I was legally able to have sex," Jane told Fox News' Laura Ingraham last Thursday. "I don't think I'm better off for the experience, and I think transitioning just completely added fuel to the fire that was my preexisting conditions."

Who would have thought that lying to children by saying it's possible to change sex and then mutilating them would have such bad consequences? Wait...

What the hell?! 13?!

The awful thing is, a youngster I know thinks these detransitioners 'just changed their mind' 'were too young' 'rushed into it'
and
'I've known for ages, so I won't change my mind'. 'I'm much older (17)'.

I had to say that from the perspective of 50, 17 is still really young with lots of room for changing minds. She didn't listen, obviously.

But no one is operating on kids, right

Right?

She talks about changing her sex. Nobody can change their sex.

It breaks my heart that we have allowed this to happen to children, what on earth were we thinking. Absolutely tragic that young girls and boys are having irreversible surgery before they even understand who they are. Is anyone telling these girls that their breasts might form a huge part of their sexual development later, never mind breast-feeding, its just insanity . And the grown up men who have transitioned late, had careers, wives, children, that come on here and talk in public and tell us what awful people we are should be ashamed of themselves.
