De-Transitioner: Here’s What Her Doctors Didn’t Tell Her

Ironic how this man is at risk of losing his license and yet the doctors that completely screwed this young woman are not being prosecuted.

Imagine having someone like this in schools to explain real issues to students instead of misinforming them

The girl deserves a lot of credit for discussing this in public!

I am floored at how brave this person is to put her own therapy session on Youtube. Thank you for doing this. I hope people (younger especially) take heed.

How the best psychologist is at risk of losing his licence is beyond me.

I was a hardcore tomboy, around age 8 I began to wear boy clothes, cut my hair, even had my family call me a boy name and now I’m 23, very feminine, straight , and love being a woman and mother. I’m so glad my parents let me be who I was and left it at that, no labels or medical intervention

My ex girlfriend is a trans man who regrets transitioning. She was encouraged in middle school to start thinking about transitioning because she was a tomboy who was attracted to girls and when her parents asked her if she wanted to be a boy she thought it seemed fun. After hormones and top surgery she realized she likes boys and wants to be a girl and a mom. But her parents and therapist encouraged her to try and reject those feeling s and commit to transitioning. After she finished hormone therapy she was infertile, which was something she was specifically told would not happen by her doctor. When we met she was suicidal because of how hopeless she felt in her situation. We dated for six months and fell in love. But she was ashamed of her body and that she couldn’t make babies knowing both of us want to be parents. I didn’t hold that against her, we could have adopted, but she couldn’t keep the suicidal thoughts away and eventually broke things off with me and moved away because a relationship was to much for her to handle being that unstable. She couldn’t handle the guilt, shame and regret she felt. The more supportive I tried to be the more she felt bad about being with me. When she shared her experiences and regret with me it was the saddest and most hopeless thing I could ever imagine. She was so young, impressionable and trusting as a kid and the people she trusted ruined her life. Anyone who thinks kids are old enough to to consent to that madness should know this. At 18 she changed her name to Richard so she can go by Dick because she thought it would be funny to be a Dickless Dick. But she hates the name Richard. When she told people her name is Dick and the reason why she would get made fun of, which should be expected when your friends are that ages. So after only a couple weeks she started going by Richard, which she hates. She’s so traumatized by the changes she did to herself that she refused to change her name again. So every time someone calls her by her name it reminds her of all of her regrets. That’s not the decisions making of a person who is mature enough to make those decisions. She was 18 when she did that. They are pushing this stuff on kids way younger than that.

Every parent with a confused child should be made to watch this with said child.

Double mastectomy at 13.!!! Why would any doctor allow that!! I’m so sorry for her 😢

I was a tomboy, my mother didn't discourage it. But I was never allowed to forget that I was a girl. I was well dressed, hair done, etc. Tore the knees out of slacks, got dirty, but it was okay. Mom made me confident, comfortable in my skin. I was tall, she taught me to embrace it. Whatever I'd dislike in the mirror, she coached me to love as who I am. I did this with my boys. Embrace who you were created to be. Love starts in the heart.

As a mom who raised daughters through puberty, I can confirm that adolescents going through puberty will experience a wide range of curiosities and emotions. They do not know who or what they are. They have no idea what their preferences are BEFORE they experience anything. Leaving them be mentally and letting them ask questions was the best choice. Both of my girls thought they might be gay or bi simply because the other malformed teenage boys around them weren't interested. Has nothing to do with it. Children transitioning to adulthood do not know how to act or think like developed adults. I never told them no. I never told them they were bad, wrong, or gross. Both have grown out of it.

I was a tomboy. Late for puberty - 16! I was depressed and anxious for both family reasons and social awkwardness. I am still a tomboy and now I am 64 and my boyfriend loves it, but i am unquestionably a woman. A tomboy woman. If a woke counselor would have gotten a hold of me at Chloe's age... I cannot imagine my life. I did wonder if I was a lesbian but I was drawn to boys. I am in love with a man and I am grateful that I was brought up back in the 70's. Chloe, you are a brave woman and you are helping so many lost young girls with your story and your presence.

I like how Peterson explains puberty perfectly when the schools litterly teach you nothing

Mom explained menstruation to me at 8. I had my 1st period at 9. Mom also explained the emotional side to puberty. This was in the early 1960s. At that time, nearly all the "tomboys" grew up to be happily married women.

Hearing him speaking about negative emotions when women hit puberty made me realize just how lucky I was to have a psychologist as my mom who was there to support me as I also hit my puberty really early. I freaked out on so many levels with my period, hormonal imbalances, depression, my body changed way too quickly and I was in a constant conflict in my head… frustration was too real. But I had support, and she was always there to explain everything I was going through. Never would I have imagined that now days there would be people using the immense confusion that puberty and adolescence causes us to their advantage…

The courage it must take for this lady to come on and talk about this is amazing. Respect.

i have no idea why so many hate this man, he is truly a great psychologist

Anyone who would mutilate a minor deserves prison time.

36 year old woman... never had this explained to me either. This is so SO helpful!

I listen to him for hours. The way he explains situations that dont even pertain to me, still teach me so much. He could breakdown just about anything to terms someone will understand.
