⁠Keep Your Kids Out of The Trans Cult⁠

Growing up in San Francisco, today's guest Rae, was not a stranger to Pride parade or transgenderism, although she wasn’t directly involved in either. Trans ideology appeared more overtly for her in 2019, when she was in a relationship with someone who was online all the time. It wasn't long until she was deep in various forums, exploring new labels for her sexual and gender identities.

Ensconced in these echo chambers, she began to identify as trans. After coming out to her therapist and primary care provider, she was passed off to specialists in “trans health care,” who encouraged her to go on testosterone and get a double mastectomy. She soon recognized that the short lived high of being on T could not outweigh the side long-term negative side effects, which for Rae included developing a blood clot. When her painful bruising appeared, it was not her doctor, but her friend, who reminded her to tune into her body's needs.

In this episode, we explore what motivated Rae to dis-identify with her femaleness, what kept her going back to her doctors, and how she started listening to her body again. Towards the end of the episode we have a lively conversation about if and how to stay in connection with trans-identified friends, and how to establish boundaries.
