Thread from 22-year-old detrans man about transitioning as a teenager (and the dangers of doing so) a heartbreaking must-read
Twitchy.com ^ | 6/12/2022 | Sam Janney

This is another one of those threads where we feel like the writer themselves has done a far better job than we ever could so we’ll leave the writing up to them.

Too late, we know, we’re already writing but still …

Jaden is a 22-year-old detrans male who shared his story about transitioning as a teenager, puberty blockers, and more.

Take a look:

Hello, my name is Jaden. I’m a 22 year old detrans male and former puberty blocked individual who socially, hormonally, and surgically transitioned as a teenager.

Recently, I had the pleasure of watching the documentary ‘What Is A Woman?’ and I wanted to share my thoughts. 🧵

The interview that particularly caught my attention was when political commentator, Matt Walsh interviewed Dr. Michelle Forcier, a physician who routinely treats trans youth. https://t.co/fQbOnBAVyh

Forcier is a big proponent for “affirmative” healthcare and pubertal blockers.

— J🦎 (@detransguy) June 11, 2022

Blue hair.

Of course.

Forcier admits affirmation therapy begins “whenever the patient is ready for it” – it’s no secret trans care is handled anecdotally but it’s unnerving to hear a medical professional talk about something so intimate & serious as transitioning in an inconsistent, nonchalant manner.

Though, what I took issue with was the fact she claims puberty blockers are “completely reversible and don’t have permanent effects.” This ever increasingly common narrative is a fallacy, with medical data, lawsuits, and personal reported experiences directly contradicting it. pic.twitter.com/SyPaHYsQF0

— J🦎 (@detransguy) June 11, 2022

You’d think a so-called medical professional would actually care about the data but we suppose she has a narrative to sell and the data doesn’t help.

As someone who took these medications as a teenager, I’ve contended with many of the effects reported. At age 16, I was prescribed spironolactone (a common T blocker). For nearly a year, I’d struggle as I’d continue to take the medication but have consistently high T levels.

— J🦎 (@detransguy) June 11, 2022

Stumped by my labs, my PCP referred me to his colleague, an OBGYN who within the first few months of treating me swapped my T blockers for a GnRH agonist implant known as Histrelin.

In the coming years, I’d experience physical, mental, and sexual changes I never could imagine.

— J🦎 (@detransguy) June 11, 2022

Heartbreaking.

A teenager.

In my anecdotal experience, blockers were more intense than when I was only taking anti androgens. Having T rapidly and permanently blocked for the first time led me to developing muscular atrophy, metabolic issues, & bone density concerns.

Physical issues that still affect me.

— J🦎 (@detransguy) June 11, 2022

Muscular atrophy, metabolic issues, and bone density concerns.

The lack of physical development and sexual maturation I experienced is irreversible, even when taking testosterone replacement therapy. The fetility issues, and eventual decimation of my fertility altogether, will never be rebounded – in fact the Mayo Clinic even warns of this. pic.twitter.com/WiTEKIW5Kb

— J🦎 (@detransguy) June 11, 2022

Never rebound.

Sounds pretty damn permanent to us.

Not to mention this direction inevitably led me on the path of cross-sex hormones, and there were issues that were only exasperated with the induction of estrogen. After starting E injections, I started also dealing with vascular issues and what is likely nerve damage in my legs.

— J🦎 (@detransguy) June 11, 2022

But you know, they’re perfectly safe and stuff.

I noticed within the first weeks of taking blockers a total loss of libido, which was expected. What I didn’t expect was facing anorgasmia, a side effect my doctor failed to warn me of. It wouldn’t be until years later, after demanding the implant be removed, I’d experience one.

— J🦎 (@detransguy) June 11, 2022

I also started feeling as if I wasn’t equipped to handle my emotions, as I felt them much more intensely than I had previously. I had started dealing with brain fog, memory issues, trouble concentrating, and depression. These issues unfortunately led me to dropping out of school.

— J🦎 (@detransguy) June 11, 2022

To hear medical professionals insist a drug that’s harmed myself and others, is “completely reversible and doesn’t have permanent effects” is frustrating, and saddening.

It’s disturbing how doctors willfully spread misinformation to coop a movement, and pathologize GNC youth.

— J🦎 (@detransguy) June 11, 2022

Frustrating.

Saddening.

Unacceptable.

Some might even say evil.

Ditto. I pretty much ran out of tears for people who create their own crises, long ago.

Oklahoma stupidly legalized marijuana. Now our stupid politicians are decrying the astronomical number of hard drug addicts we have in OK.

Yeah, the meter that registers my concern for the "reaping what you sow" crowd is pretty much dead.

At work a guy transitioned and we all had to go to class and learn ALL about it.

They posted numbers indicating that HALF of all trans attempt suicide! I did ask about this number and they believed it may have been closer to 60%.

How many other medical procedures for physically healthy work out to a coin toss with a life?

What the hell is a "detrans male"?

Sorry, but I have no inclination to read the article to find out. I'm sick of this crap in general. Any parent encouraging their children to pretend at being the opposite sex are pedophiles in my opinion.

A Detrans is a Detransitioner, or a person who has stopped being transgender and now lives as their actual birth sex/gender. What I find important is he lists all the problems he experienced from taking puberty blockers, which Biden and his Admin have stated are perfectly safe. I’m assuming there will be lots of law suits.

IMO, trans-ing or de-transing have inevitable insufficiencies that cannot be addressed by medicine despite the lofty medical dialogue and BS being promulgated by LGBTQ and their complicit medical hacks.

You can cut it off and make a plastic poontang; I’d supposed they’ve even figured out how to make a plastic wang, I dunno. What I do know is that the plumbing won’t work like God intended because God did not intend for you to cut it off (or add one, either).

In the end, you’d be left with untold medical considerations and implications for the rest of your life, a constantly growing dissatisfaction with the way things turned out and the finality that what you’ve done is permanent and not what you ultimately wanted.

Crazy. Kids are allowed to take “puberty blockers” that alter their genders and screw their bodies up for life? If they want to do that when they are legal adults, I guess it’s their business but again, any parent that encourages their children to ruin their life like that are sex offenders in my opinion.

As I’ve said before the transgender movement is a form of eugenics.
It’s removing white people from the gene pool.🙄

The mental and physical problems are easy to explain.

It’s looking a lot like no one in any position of authority cares about anything anymore except money and power.

When do we get a list of terms that we’re going to need to know to understand what the heck is going on in this country?

When did “detrans” become a word? Just make them up as we go along to fit whatever situation?

None of us need to age THIS FAST...and it takes its toll...

More info than you want. They peel skin off, usually your arm, roll it like a jelly roll, and reroute your God given plumbing.

I’ve said this before: Topics on tranny sites.
1) “Should I kill myself?”
2) “Do I look enough like a woman”?
These kids are going to be total train wrecks in 10-20 years.

Info that transgender children weren’t provided, before taking puberty blockers; Dr Marcy Bowers, plastic surgeon who performed lopitoffame on Jazz Jennings, recently said boys who take puberty blockers will never experience orgasm. One pro-transgender doctor has revealed that important information. Detrans, or former transgender Jaden had that problem. 2 other known problems from puberty blockers is they lower IQ 8 points, and they cause osteoarthritis. Probably more side effects, which Jaden wasn’t told about by his doctor.
Not providing that warning to transgender young children should be criminal.

The suicide rate for transgenders post transition is as high. Swedish doctors, where I think study was performed, think the problem is doctors not doing psycb work on kids who want to be other sex. Sweden, Finland, Austria, and UK now do psychological evaluations, plus don’t let young kids take puberty blockers or get mastectomies.

The maim thing I remembered from 1984 is Newspeak. Transgender activists trying to change language, and athletics, for transgenders is pure Newspeak. Birthing persons? BS!

They list an astounding number of possible complications. Number 1 for me is they expect nerve regeneration, and warn that some or all nerves might not grow back in the surgically created skin tube that approximates a penis.
