Detransitioned teen wants to hold 'gender-affirming' surgeons accountable: 'What happened to me is horrible'
MSN - Fox News ^ | 11-11-22 | Ashley Carnahan

Teenager Chloe Cole started on puberty blockers and testosterone at 13, underwent a double mastectomy at 15 and detransitioned from male to female at 16.

Cole said Thursday on "Tucker Carlson Tonight" that doctors pushed transitioning as the way to treat her gender dysphoria.

She was 12 when she told her parents she was "distressed" with her gender and wanted to transition from female to male.

"They were concerned, and they wanted what was best for me, but they weren’t really sure what to do with me, so they sought professional help, and from then on, I was basically referred [to] in my gender identity without any questioning from any medical professionals, and they pushed transitioning as the way to treat gender dysphoria," she said.

Cole told host Tucker Carlson she is "devastated" at the loss of her breasts and has trouble coping.

"As an adult, I will never be able to breast-feed whatever children I will have. I don’t even know if, because I was put on puberty blockers and testosterone at only 13 years old, I don’t know if I’ll be able to conceive a child naturally," she said. "I made an adult decision as a child."

The teenager said she is suing the doctors who performed the "gender-affirming" surgery because she wants to end the practice. "I want to hold the adults that put me in harm’s way accountable because what happened to me is horrible, but it also didn’t only happen to me, that’s the worst part. It’s happening to children all over the U.S., all over the West, and it’s spreading all over the world," she said.

"I want to be able to create a precedent for other people who have been in my situation to find justice themselves."

If you get medical advice that damages you, you have recourse if such advice is outside the standards of “Professional Care.”

It was reasonably anticipatable that quality of life would be negatively impacted by the advice and services sold. 150 Million seems about right.

The issue is that they did what she, a minor child, wanted.

Doesn’t sound like a lawsuit to me, they did what she wanted

She was 12. She didn't know what she wanted, only that she was unhappy.

Parents should also be held accountable for their inability to raise their children according to the known science of two genders. You cannot take one gender and medically make it the other and think it will function as nature intended.

They ended up with a mutilated unhappy child, that's what happens when you trust the "experts".

i’ll say it again, in twenty years we’ll see a spate of parents murdered by their transmogrified children for allowing them to be mutilated and sterilized as children

The hospital would be sued for refusing the surgery AND for doing the surgery. Thanks president bite-me

If the doctors didn’t preform the surgeries, this attention whore would have sued them, and they’d be labeled as bigots.

Do adult things, expect adult consequences.

She was only 13 when they started her on hormones. Still a kid.

People that cut into children with knives are the same people that demand to murder babies.

They are the enemy, folks.

She was a teen. She only thought she knew what she wanted at that moment. NO 13 year old should be deciding or thinking this crap.

This is the point I think people miss for all the noise. Transitions like this create sexless individuals which cannot be reversed. If you inform candidates of this fact, there would be far less inclined to move forward.

“I see no difference between the ghouls who do this to kids or advocate for it, and Josef Mengele.”

No real difference. That’s while the whole process should be called “Mengelization” and be punished the way Mengele would have been if he hasn’t escaped.

Much of it comes from the taxpayer via Medicaid.
