Chloe, “The Canary in the Coal Mine”

Chloe Cole (Fox News Digital)

Chloe Cole was put on puberty blockers and testosterone at 13; she underwent a double mastectomy at 15.

"I wasn't really allowed any time to just be and to just be observed alone without intervention. I mean, it was only about half a year between being diagnosed with gender dysphoria and actually being medicated. So the process for me was very expedited and there weren't really any pushback from any medical professionals," she told Fox News. 

Cole began to question her identity at the age of 12. Her parents were advised by medical professionals that she would commit suicide if she wasn't "affirmed" with medical intervention.

"My distraught parents wanted me alive, so they listened to my doctors," Cole previously said at a hearing. 

"Because of the testosterone, I have permanent changes to my bone structure that cannot be reversed. And I have issues with my urinary tract, but I'm not sure whether I'll be able to conceive a child or be able to safely carry to term or to birth. And because of the mastectomy, I'll never be able to breastfeed," she said. "Transitioning… affects every area of your life… [including] your ability to conceive children in the first place, and a lot of people don't know whether they want to have children until they're in their thirties or forties or even beyond that."

In August, Cole testified on California's State Senate Judiciary Committee against a bill that would make the state a "sanctuary" for gender surgeries.  

"Who here really believes that, as a 15-year-old, I should have had my healthy breasts removed or that it should’ve been an option?" she said. "How many more children’s bodies will be destroyed before you actually listen? What is the sweet spot? 100? 200? 1000?"

"SB107 will open the flood gates for confused children like me to get the gender interventions that many regret. I am the canary in the coal mine."

Cole is working with Do No Harm to get the word out and encourage medical professionals to stand by their Hippocratic oath.

Cari, Detransitioner – Podcast

The Good Creation Podcast – Cari, Detransitioner

Podcast Script

Two fairly short videos below by an articulate DeTransitioner.  From her own personal experience, Cari superbly frames the issue.

No matter what Gender Activists tell you.  It doesn’t matter if they are testifying under oath before Congress.  (See my post from yesterday.)  DeTransitioner numbers are growing rapidly.  Their stories complicate the sunny picture frequently presented in the media about our “gender-fluid future.” Plus Detransitioners are either ignored or heavily criticized by Trans-Activists. They need to be heard. They need our support and love.

Please note the following important terms & phrases in the videos below: a mental health condition called “dissociative disorder,” also the phrases “maladaptive coping mechanism,” “decoupling my sense of self from my body” “shifting dysphoria” & “gatekeeping.”  These are important terms and phrases we need to understand.  

So listen carefully.

Our young people are not getting the mental health care or the spiritual support they need. We need more “gatekeeping!”

Also, as I study this issue I constantly find homosexuals saying they are so glad they are not teens today. They might have tried to medicalize their identity, changing their bodies forever. Like Cari did. The Lesbian community in particular is being decimated. Less feminine “gender non-conforming” girls who might think about that possibility are being told instead, they just might be guys, not girls! 

As I’ve mentioned several times before, homosexuals typically don’t deny their biological sex. Which would make nonsense of same-sex attraction.  What we are seeing with today’s gender ideology is a different, confusing, contradictory mess. 

Unless your aim is to radically restructure society and its cultural norms. Which is the aim of Queer Theory and several other Critical Theories I could mention.

Unfortunately because of ideology and quite frankly a lot of ignorance, young people today are groomed to deny biological sex. So-called “Affirming” clinicians & counselors put them on a fast-track to Transition

After irreversible damage to her body, Cari wishes she had received better care from the professionals. They failed her. 

“I want to ask you, (says Cari) how many other medical conditions are there where you can walk into the doctor’s office, tell them you have a certain condition, which has no objective test, which can be caused by trauma or mental health issues or societal factors, and receive life-altering medications on your say-so?”


They failed her.  Please listen carefully to what she has to say.  

If you’ve just found my blog and are intrigued about this issue, and want to learn more, I highly recommend a book by Abigail Shrier.

Shrier is a graduate of Columbia College who went on to earn a bachelor of philosophy degree from the University of Oxford and a JD from Yale Law School.  Her book Irreversible Damage: The Transgender Craze Seducing Our Daughters was named a “best book” by The Economist and The Times of London. [2020, 2021]

I’m a Classic Christian.   I regard Gender Ideology as anti-creational to the core. This blog is about “God’s Good Creation.” That’s why I’m writing and podcasting about this issue. Christians (and everybody else) let’s get informed. And speak up as I’m confident Jesus would.

"Have you not read that the one who made them at the beginning 'made them male and female.'" [Matt 19:4]

Love Refuses to Affirm Confusion

Detransitioning Is Real. It’s Happening!

Either this gender activist is lying under oath, or is ideologically blind. Or identifies as an Ostrich.

Conservatives ripped into LGBTQ activist and social worker Jessie Pocock for denying she has ever heard of any transgender person detransitioning from their sex change attempts.

Pocock, the CEO and executive director of LGBTQ non-profit Inside Out Youth Services Advocacy Organization provided testimony during  Wednesday's House Oversight Committee hearing on "LGBTQ extremism and violence."

During her testimony, Rep. Michael Cloud, R-Texas, mentioned there are "a lot of people in the news coming out detransitioning." He asked, "Could you speak to that phenomenon, and what’s that person going through? Did they get it wrong? Were they going through a period?"

Pocock said she couldn’t "really speak to an individual’s personal experience," but ended up admitting she doesn’t think detransitioning is real.

She added, "I’ve been in this work for a long time. I know a lot of trans folks, close friends, family members, and I’ve just never heard a case of anyone destransitioning, so I honestly don’t think it’s a real thing."

Detransitioner Chloe Cole responds.


Detransitioner TullipR points out that the Reddit online community of Detransitioners now sits at 32.2k and growing rapidly. I suspect this is just the beginning. (Actual number to date is 40k!)

What are we doing to our young people?
