… and as of this writing I’m a 23-year-old woman who, as a teenager, believed I was transgender. In the years since detransitioning (stopping testosterone treatment and no longer seeing myself as transgender), I’ve become interested in exploring why, in the last decade, nearly every English-speaking country has seen a meteoric rise in adolescents believing they are transgender and pursuing cosmetic medical and surgical interventions. Here, I’d like to go over how and why I came to see myself as transgender, the process of transitioning, and the events leading up to and following my detransition.
It’s long winded, but illuminating.
That was a great story. She’s now a beautiful young woman. Would she be jailed for five years in Canada for promoting conversion therapy?

It takes a while to overcome mental illness. Some never succeed.
It’s nice that she’s all better now.
marc – She must be feeling better, She’s wearing a Led Zeppelin T shirt in one photo.
… and wearing it like the proper woman she is.
I would like to tell this reborn woman that her photos are all (mostly) of a woman. And an attractive girl-woman. I suppose that has always been her advantage in finding a way back from the brink of overwhelming transgender insanity. That she looks very much like a woman. I suspect, even when she was overweight, she still looked very much female.
Her youngest pictures make it hard for me to understand how a teen girl who “appeared” so far from a trainwreck could view herself so far off the tracks? How mean were the Jr. High and High School mean girls? How did she develop such a negative self image? I suspect many if not MOST girls who identify as trans have been hit far harder with the ugly stick. I suppose it is far easier for many girls to just give up being female, if their body and face are far from the inherent beauty standard. I say inherent … because beauty is not JUST down to societal norms … but to human norms.
When a person is at peace with themselves and expressing themselves naturally, they don’t desperately micromanage everything and everyone around them.
Her quote is both insightful and essential for proper mental health. It perfectly describes the insanity of the woke left. Micromanaging all that they hate. Hating all that they micromanage … resulting in a deeply, profound SELF-hate
This sick trans movement and how they prey on the young is just more concrete evidence that the left does the bidding of Satan every single day. Our communist Legacy Scumbag Media amplifies this movement too and so I consider them Satanists as well. That is all.
Communists always play the long game. Lenin once said “Give me four years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted.” The downfall of western civilization began in our schools and expanded from there. Where else can they get so confused about who they are? We are paying the price for allowing government to educate our kids without any public oversight.
Agreed. Public schools and universities have corrupted education.
Don’t give a shit about these nutters – they are weak, contribute nothing to society – take is all they understand – bottle of pills or something high – simply a waste of space using resources proper, sane taxpayers require.
Well you should, if you have any kids in your family or extended family. Her piece could have used an editor to tighten it up, but she does describe what was going on in her head, what pushed her to believe she was trans and the pressure to do so once she entered that world.
Most interesting — that as a white, heterosexual female she was part of the evil, oppressive class. By becoming trans she joined the victim class. That was probably the most important takeaway of all as to why this phenomenon has exploded.
Well said, Kate, well said.
Sounds much like making excuses for the insane.
Kate – That makes sense but what is in it for O’Foole and Castreau to make “common sense” illegal? Helena’s parents were at the edge of the law if they were in Canada. The Conversion Therapy bill says:
“Whereas conversion therapy causes harm to society because, among other things, it is based on and propagates myths and stereotypes about sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression, including the myth that heterosexuality, cisgender gender identity, and gender expression that conforms to the sex assigned to a person at birth are to be preferred over other sexual orientations, gender identities and gender expressions;”
320.101 …”conversion therapy means a practice*, treatment or service designed to
(a) change a person’s sexual orientation to heterosexual;
(b) change a person’s gender identity to cisgender;
(c) change a person’s gender expression so that it conforms to the sex assigned to the person at birth;
(d) repress or reduce non-heterosexual attraction or sexual behaviour;
(e) repress a person’s non-cisgender gender identity; or
(f) repress or reduce a person’s gender expression that does not conform to the sex assigned to the person at birth.
* Is a pastor practicing conversion therapy when he quotes the Bible, e.g. “Male and female, created He them”?
“For greater certainty, this definition does not include a practice, treatment or service that relates to …a person’s gender transition”. Notice how one-sided this is? Feel free to convert people away from biology, but not towards biology.
“320.102 Everyone who knowingly causes another person to undergo conversion therapy — including by providing conversion therapy to that other person — is…guilty”
“320.103 Everyone who knowingly promotes or advertises conversion therapy is…guilty”.
The government is legislating your beliefs. Also, who is causing the bigger harm to society?

Funny thing. Nobody has found the “gay gene” yet. Or the “lesbian gene” … or the “trans gene”. Nor a “Q gene” … a “gene” for “questioning” … sounds more like a “gene” for changing, shifting, opinions? Sheesh. Yet a government who has spent two+ years BASHING the population with “science” … writes laws that have NOTHING whatsoever to do with science or biology.
Yet feeeeeelings … opinions of sex … self image … and a host of grievances too numerous to mention … are elevated to SUPER-Law. Yes, you can conclude that the Canadian government has legalized and canonized … mental illness.
On the other hand, is anybody bothering to look for the said genes?
Indeed.
If possible, do read “The Whisperers” by Orlando Figes. In it, he describes how people living in the Soviet Union would change and hide their true identities so as to distance themselves from their families who were considered to be political dissenters.
I am seeing a similar vein here – people villainised by groomers for who they are.
“When a person is at peace with themselves and expressing themselves naturally, they don’t desperately micromanage everything and everyone around them.”
This is something that leapt out at me. One could easily apply this to the insanity of the COVID mandates and restrictions.
Start wth mental illness. Reinforce dysfunctional behaviour and deny any alternative realities and bang, forcing two years olds in nursery school to use masks that don’t work and firing people who don’t want to take a dangerous vaccine that doesn’t work.
The Trans movement is a bunch of vampires. They prey upon normies, but instead of blood, they feed off likes and affirmation. The normies they feed upon are slowly converted and corrupted to the cult.
They all need sunlight.
Thanks for posting this Kate. Every MP should have read it before voting on the conversion therapy bill.
Very interesting read. And you can see how this social media groupthink/mass psychosis plays out every day in real life especially at the corporate and bureaucratic level now. The adults have lost control.
I became anorexic at the age of 15 to 21, I went down to 76 pounds if I hadn’t received treatment when I did I would of died of organ failure. Treating trans kids with immediate surgery instead of psychological treatment is akin to helping starving anorexic starve themselves.
I quit working at shoprite to work online and with a little effort I easily bring in around $45 to 85 per/h. Without Ret a my doubt, this is the pay easiest and most financially GFYC rewarding job I’ve ever had.JHG I actually started 6 months ago and this has totally
changed my life………… http://homejob34.tk/
By the time I was thirteen, I was isolating myself, self-harming, and had developed an eating disorder.
As old SDA commenter Loki once pointed out, eating disorders are symptoms, not disorders. They’re indicative of a larger suppressed trauma. And this predates her exposure to Tumblr.
Similarly, sexual dysmorphia isn’t a disorder, it’s a symptom, indicative of some larger suppressed trauma.
It’s possible that this young woman wasn’t sexually abused as a child, but with a 90%+ incidence rate it’s the safe way to bet.
Actually, you’d be wrong. Helena has written about the roots of her psychological troubles in other places. They had nothing to do with sexual abuse.
Lesson to learn: actually inquire, don’t ass/u/me.
I don’t care except that these people have mental health issues or have been coerced into this thinking. The end result they need help, and those encouraging this, especially in children need to be charged.
Screwing with peoples’ lives should be a serious offence, oh wait, that would cover a lot of politicians and highly placed bureaucrats. Bring it on.
