Detransitioner: ‘I’m suing the doctors who removed my healthy breasts’
New York Post ^ | December 3, 2022 | Rikki Schlott

“Sometimes in the shower, I realize they’re gone. I just have these scars.”

Camille Kiefel, 32, had her healthy breasts removed in 2020 to align with her nonbinary gender identity. She says her doctors approved the surgery after two Zoom meetings, breezing past a whole host of mental health issues.

Now that Camille is in a better place mentally, she realizes her surgery was a mistake. So, two and a half years later, she’s suing her social worker, therapist, and the gender clinics they work for — Brave Space Oregon and Quest Center for Integrative Health — seeking up to $850,000 in damages.

As a child, Camille never gave her gender identity a thought. But when her best friend was raped by a relative in sixth grade, she said she became acutely aware of her femininity. Around that time her father also imparted well-meaning advice that backfired.

“My dad told me about how men talked about girls, because he wanted to protect me and to get me to dress more conservatively,” she told The Post. “But it made my anxiety worse. All that really screwed me up. I remember I was even afraid to be alone.”

From that point on, she began dressing more androgynously. “I didn’t want to highlight my curves. I had a lot of discomfort around my breasts and hips.”

But the idea that she might not actually be a woman didn’t occur to Camille until she enrolled at Portland State University, where she minored in gender studies and was introduced to alternative views about sex and gender.

By the time she reached her mid-20s, she embraced a nonbinary label and used she/they pronouns. All the while, she was struggling with a slew of mental-health issues, including anxiety disorder, social anxiety, PTSD, major depressive disorder and ADHD.

A 30 year old woman is an adult (in theory anyway).

I kind of hope she wins a lot. Maybe doctors will stop doing these life destroying procedures.

Yes, women never look under the hood of a vehicle, hence why they love guys driving Mercedes with crappy reliability, as discernment seems to hurt their feminine bits. They feel higher than having to do the dirty work of sleuthing, lifting the hood, getting hands dirty, or something.

They have this intuition about the unconscious intents of individuals when in dark alleys, or, rather, they listen to it, but that intuition can be highjacked by clowns. Clowns are not popular amongst women, except when the clowning is used as something to blur their natural intuition.

… * Clowns are not popular amongst women, except when the clowning is used as something to blur their natural intuition.

Walter Benjamin, a Columbia communist schizo would cryptically say that Fascists make art out of war whereas communists use art to make war… this guy was a male feminist, likely gay (a schizophrenic child-version of the more patriotic and gallant greek homosexual), who had intuition in propaganda and writing, about mocking the fame of a real artist/clown/painter, and instead using these talents in motion picture teams to conspire into confusing, dazzling and destroying their enemies’ natural intuitive ability to see.

It is like the Joker. They are now tranny Walter Benjamins, jealous and envious of women, who are destroying women from within and with their own hands. Democracy being like hell, the road for the ladies is far and wide indeed.

I wish her success, but that's why you, or your guardian, signed a release before your surgery, er, butchery.

I just recently underwent a biopsy on my bladder. The doctor and the anthologist had me read and sign a consent form.
