Retired Navy SEAL made famous after coming out as trans announces detransition: 'destroyed my life'

A retired Navy SEAL who became famous nearly 10 years ago after coming out as transgender announced he is detransitioning and called on Americans to "wake up" about how transgender health services are hurting children.

Everything you see on CNN with my face, do not even believe a word of it," Chris Beck, formerly known as Kristin Beck, told conservative influencer Robby Starbuck in an interview published earlier this month. "Everything that happened to me for the last ten years destroyed my life. I destroyed my life. I'm not a victim. I did this to myself, but I had help."

"I take full responsibility," he continued. "I went on CNN and everything else, and that’s why I’m here right now, I’m trying to correct that."

Beck gained notoriety in 2013 when he spoke with CNN’s Anderson Cooper about transitioning to a woman.

Apparently pretending to be someone else doesn't solve your emotional issues.
Go figure.

Well, hopefully this dumbazz will get a chance to get his s**t together and do something to fix all the damage he’s done.

For his sake, I’m glad he’s beginning to see things more clearly, but for the many people he met during and after than ‘transition’, he will remain someone ‘confused’ about his gender. One can forgive for making a bad decision, but that doesn’t mean they will ever get over the shock of seeing someone they thought they knew suddenly appearing in public looking, at very least, like a crossdresser.

For those that are over 25 or so, I say that, yes it’s their own fault. They had to know they couldn’t change their gender at a whim. You can put lipstick on a pig, but it is still a pig. Same for men.

For those that are younger than that, especially teens and pre-teens, it is the adults that around them that are at fault. Most studies show that a person’s brain is not fully formed until about age 26 or so. Physicians should be aware, and used to be taught, that most emotional issues brought on by puberty resolve themselves after a year or so and young teens should be informed of that fact. Yes, it’s a rough time for young people but with understanding and parental support, most of us navigated that year or so without long-term harm and without running our parents too crazy.

Parents and physicians should be criminally prosecuted for participating in and facilitating such foolish and harmful behavior.

He was part of the push to genitally mutilate children, but HE does seem to have some true remorse.

Really. Left out a critical word that is spelled with just one letter.

Teaching such things is probably illegal.

Was going to ask the same question. Looks kinda like him.

Ran out of brain so grabbed Ben by the neck and threatened him.

It can’t be anything other than a trendy cult considering the numbers involved. It’s reached the level of social contagion.

Now that the physicians are making money in the “gender-change” industry, the lawyers are lining up to be next. I suspect malpractice insurance companies may be the ones to put a stop to this foolishness.

That’s why the suicide rate is so high. Mental issues, think surgery to fix gender will make issues go away and they don’t. Added to the mental misery is most often physical pain & constant problems from the surgery or surgeries - multiple required. I read a description of what a guy who transitioned to a woman was going through - sickening to read & he was suicidal. Bad bad stuff & just criminal to do it to kids.
