Detransitioner Activist Sues Hospital That Provided Hormones, Double Mastectomy

Over the past year or two, a small but mighty force has been rising in public awareness with a passionate, vitally important message: stop medically transitioning minors. Their message is especially powerful because they are individuals– mostly young women– who received “gender affirming” medical treatment as teens and young adults, then changed their minds– but only after it was too late to undo the damage to their bodies. They are referred to as “detransitioners,” and I’ve been really interested in following their stories because, well, to put it simply, they’re boss ass b*tches.

Recently, Chloe Cole, an outspoken activist against the medical transition of children, has turned the notch of her righteous anger up to 11. She is suing the hospital that gave her puberty blockers at 13 and a double mastectomy at 15.

The letter reads in part,

“My teenage life has been the culmination of excruciating pain, regret, and most importantly injustice,” Cole said. “I have been emotionally and physically damaged and stunted by so-called medical professionals in my most important developmental period. I was butchered by an institution that we trust more than anything else in our lives. What is worse is that I am not alone in my pain. I will see to the fact that the blood and tears of detransitioners like myself will not lay waste. It is impossible for me to recoup what I have lost, but I will insure no children will be harmed at the hands of these liars and mutilators.”

“The medical system shouldn’t dictate the future of young children’s lives. Through this legal action, the ‘professionals’ involved will be held accountable for their despicable plot to mutilate children and financially benefit from it,” said Center for American Liberty’s CEO, Harmeet Dhillon (@pnjaban). “We will break the cycle of them breaking our children before it’s too late.”

Two words: YAS QUEEN.

This decision has great potential to have a decisive impact on the debate over “gender affirming care” by hitting its proponents where it hurts– that is, their pocketbooks. It’s never been about helping unwell children. It’s only ever been about the money. Chloe Cole’s about to prove it.

And I really can’t overstate how admirable it is for Cole to turn her tragedy into a tool to help other people. The vitriol detransitioners receive from the trans community is well documented, and by filing this lawsuit she is making herself even more of a target than she already is. And it’s not stopping her, because she knows exactly what’s at stake.

Chloe, I think I speak for all of us at Chicks on the Right when I say, go get ’em, tiger.
