Detransitioned boy castrated by doctors warns kids about perils of gender ideology: 'Patient for life'
Fox News ^ | July 21, 2023 | Hannah Grossman

Posted on 07/21/2023 2:26:21 PM PDT by Tired of Taxes

A young male, who formerly identified as a transwoman, who was castrated and became a "patient for life" as part of "gender-affirming care," wants to warn others not to follow in his footsteps. He discussed his story of resilience and learning to accept himself for who he is for the first time with Fox News Digital.

Kobe, whose name is being withheld for privacy reasons, had "checked every box for what they call a trans adolescent." He was always "effeminate" and loved pink and playing with Barbies. If he was never exposed to gender ideology, he says he'd probably "would have just stayed a feminine boy. And there's nothing wrong with that."

(SNIP)

Kobe told his parents that he was transgender at age 11. At 13, Kobe said that older trans people online instructed him, as well as other kids, to "play the suicide card" in order to get chemical interventions.

"I started using, like, ‘the suicide tactics,’ because that's what they are. That's what they tell us all to do… I don't want to use the word groom, but we are like taught. I guess the older transpeople teach us to say that stuff to get the health care and everything. And I mean, there were times when I thought I was genuinely suicidal over gender dysphoria, but it was I think it was all just stuff that was in my head. I don't think I would have ever been suicidal about being biologically male if I had never been exposed to that stuff."

Kobe was started on puberty blockers around 13, estrogen at 16 and later had castration surgery at 19.

Doctors who do these operations are the worst of the perverts... on the same level as Jeffery Dahmer.

The media will never admit that what they call "hate speech" as we speak against genital mutilation is really just loving our neighbors enough to tell them the truth with regard to uncomfortable topics.

“patient for life”

And that’s the point of all this.

“I couldn’t ignore that I mutilated myself pretty much with the permission of a psychiatrist.”

Kobe seems to be taking responsibility for his adult decision.

--- " 'Patient for life' " says part of the title.

To me, this is what the entire pharmaceutical industry wants for us all. Patient for life, and continuing profit center for them.

The generally healthy, "asymptomatic" and reasonably fit individual is not easily "harvested."

A doctor takes an oath to first do no harm. Every doctor who performs these mutilations breaks that oath so they should lose their medical license for life since they’ve proven money is their prime motivator and not doing what’s right for a patient.

The real hell of it is those that transition or either lesbian or homosexual and in great psychological distress. They become victims of the surgical knife that they were taught would alleviate the problem. It does not and makes it worse.

These individuals should be advised to integrate into their chosen sexuality but without a surgical knife or hormone therapy and offered counseling to help them achieve what they want to be.

If they are 21 years old and want to cut body parts off that is their free decision. I wish not to pay for it as it will drive my insurance costs up.

When did all this start? It seems like during the Covid Years, when a lot of people lost their collective minds, this never-ending nightmare for kids really dug in.

I’m waiting for it to happen, and I think eventually it will. A patient will murder his doctor.

Every time I read a similar story, and there are lots of them today, I think about lobotomies. The whole idea of lobotomies being therapeutic was insane. The people doing them knew right away that they’d ruined a life. One of the Kennedy children was lobotomized because they were afraid she’d get pregnant and embarrass the family. They were all about control. I think the castrations are another version of control. And, yes, there are evil men who are doctors. They hide behind their medical practice the same way sexual preditors hide behind jobs like priest.

Yes. And said doctors should meet the same end as he did.

Patient for life, and continuing profit center for them.

If you look at the history of the past four years or so, I think the Democrats' multi-tentacled war against America started at approximately the same time President Trump began working to get pharmaceutical prices lowered.

It wasn't very long afterward that suddenly everyone was "required," or forced, to take an experimental injection.

This could be a new revenue stream for ambulance-chasing lawyers in the future.

What was considered therapeutic in one era can be considered quack medicine and malpractice in the next.

Physicians and psychiatrists who urge this action, and insurance providers who fund it could be held liable.

Governments who recommend it, mandate it, condone it could be liable as well. Victims could demand reparations, maybe even get it.

And lawyers will get rich(er).

Messed up kids can be forgiven but a whole string of doctors need to be standing in front of a firing squad.

Nazi doctors were executed after the war.
We need more of that.

It started in between 2010 and 2016. Until that time, Dr. Kenneth Zucker, the leading expert on sexual development issues, stood firm against “affirmation” and urged body acceptance until one became an adult. The endocrine system can do crazy things during puberty and dysphoria usually abates naturally when puberty ends.

The radical activists lied to discredit him and “affirmation” became the new protocol. He was eventually vindicated, but the damage was done.

Here is a great short vid that discusses and well explains why this mania will be so hard to stop.

Kobe, in retrospect, looks back at the medical interventions as a subconscious use of “self-harm.”


I’ve often wondered if transitioning (cutting off body parts)
is just an extension of “cutting”.
