Ex-Transgender Teen Recounts ‘Horrifying’
Experience of Transition, Surgery

Original Article

Chloe Cole was 15 years old when she agreed to let a “gender-affirming” surgeon remove her healthy breasts—a life-altering decision she now deeply regrets. Her “brutal” transition from female to male was anything but the romanticized “gender journey” that transgender activists and medical professionals had portrayed, she told The Epoch Times. “It’s a little creepy to call it that,” she said. Cole, who is now 18, feels more like she’s just awoken from “a nightmare,” and she’s disappointed with the medical and school system that fast-tracked her to gender transition surgery.

Comments:

A detailed report from this intelligent teenager who was so let down by the adults in her life. A graphic and chilling story of confusion, coercion, mutilation and deep regret. A story vulnerable pre-teens and teens need to hear from another teen...

When these people opt for surgery, cannot help but wonder if they will feel a certain level of pain and discomfort for the rest of their lives due to scarring and possible nerve damage. Are they ever warned about this? I wonder how many would change their minds regarding going forward with surgery if they knew there is permanent discomfort. As a teenager, I had an accident where I nearly lost a fingertip. It was sowed back on. I have a fingertip, but to this day it feels different than any of my other fingers.

We have traditionally recognized that children are not adults. They are not physically, neurologically, or emotionally mature enough to make certain decisions or accept full responsibility for their lives. We don't generally let them marry or serve as soldiers and the educational system slows some careers down so that we don't have 16 year old physicians making medical decisions. Further, when adults impose their choices on children like sexual activity or even adult movies, we have rightfully drawn the line and held such adults as abusive. Our children are still children. We adults are 'free' to do what we want to ourselves but we dare not loosen the moral restraints which risk the lives of the children among us - REGARDLESS of what parents, teachers, or caregivers want.

Kids at that age can't buy cigarettes, or liquor, drive a car, or vote. So why in the world should they be allowed to decide for themselves to sexually mutilate their bodies? If anything they should be gender reaffirmed according to the gender God created them as. Help them to find God's purpose for them and what His will in life for them is. God was nowhere in the process that ruined their lives.

FTA: "And a lot of the feminist content pushed by other girls was making womanhood out to be this terrible thing.” The war on womanhood, the war on femininity, the war on motherhood advances unimpeded by the minions of Satan. They are erasing women from the world stage. They want to turn real girls into fake boys. They glorify drag queens. They give men Women of the Year awards. They allow men to compete on women's sports teams and win their trophies. They allow two men to be "married" couples and "adopt" children and be a "family". Women are no longer needed. A totally misogynistic society is being constructed, including the intentional mutilation of women, with the willing assistance of their sister females. We fight on two fronts; in the physical world it is crucial that any of us that know parents with children in school, that we get this information to them. The transgender pronoun affirming agenda is being rolled out into all the schools across the nation this fall, and most school districts are doing it under the table. Foremost this is Spiritual Warfare; Satan hates womanhood because we are co-creators of life along with God. It is in our wombs God knits each life. John the Baptist leaped for joy in the womb of St. Elizabeth when Mary visited with Jesus present within her womb. Womanhood is precious and needs protection. That was once understood by society when we knew God. We cannot win the political battle unless we are praying first. In God We Trust, then MAGA

Chloe is gracious in not blaming her parents. However, they share a large part of the blame. Not only did they roll over when advised by experts, they also gave her unregulated access to social media at a young age. Social media is a poison for children. Parents must restrict access and control the content their child views.

FTA: "Her parents, though skeptical, trusted the medical professionals and eventually consented to their daughter’s desire for medical interventions, including surgery, which was covered by their health insurance policy." It appears the parents were worn down by medical professionals they believed were "helping" their daughter. "Either you’ll have a dead daughter or a live son" could certainly guilt vulnerable parents into consenting to life-changing surgery. Parents who have insurance to pay for the "transition" surgery might want to step back and give their child the gift of time, rather the "gift" of surgery. Skepticism can be quite healthy, as this family had to learn the hard way.

I really hate it - - when even conservative outlets use the word "gender" - - instead of "sex." Why is nearly everyone allowing the communists to define and re-write our language? Get with it, folks! Never - - ever - - use the word "gender" - - unless you're giving a grammar lesson. It's SEX - - not GENDER!

President Joe Biden received backlash from corporate news reporters on Thursday night after he delivered a polarizing campaign-style speech flanked by two U.S. Marines. During the speech, the president attacked tens of millions of people who voted for former President Donald Trump, describing them as extremists. “Whatever you think of this speech the military is supposed to be apolitical,” CNN host Brianna Keilar, whose husband serves in U.S. Army, wrote on Twitter. “Positioning Marines in uniform behind President Biden for a political speech flies in the face of that.

When candidate Joe Biden promised that if elected president he would unite the country, did he think he could do it alienating roughly half the population? Or did he mean he would unite the Democrats and independents against the “MAGA Republicans”? Thursday’s speech clearly indicates what he had in mind was the latter. Last week, Biden smeared Donald Trump supporters, calling them semi-fascists who practice “burn-it-all-down politics” and face “​​backwards full of anger, violence, hate and division.” One of the most appropriate and fitting responses we saw

Whenever political leaders lose all political capital due to their misgovernance and have no real issues to base their campaign on, they often resort to focusing on the symbolic — usually referring to "the soul of the nation." This happened before in the U.S., it happened in India, it happened in the U.K. and it happened again in the U.S. This is most typical of the left. Instead of being humble and conceding their mistakes, they attack voters for thinking of voting against them while overlooking the myriad catastrophes they presided over. They often blame their opponents for what they are guilty of — bigotry, violence — and then end with the "soul" plea.

Biden called “MAGA Republicans” a threat to democracy and doubled down on his rhetoric calling supporters of former President Donald trump “extremists.” WMAL talk show host Larry O’Connor threw the epithet Biden directed at Republicans back at the president.
