Four years ago, I wrote about my decision to live as a woman in The New York Times, writing that I had wanted to live “authentically as the woman that I have always been,” and had “effectively traded my white male privilege to become one of America’s most hated minorities.”
Three years ago, I decided that I was neither male nor female, but nonbinary—and made headlines after an Oregon judge agreed to let me identify as a third sex, not male or female.
Now, I want to live again as the man that I am.
I’m one of the lucky ones. Despite participating in medical transgenderism for six years, my body is still intact. Most people who desist from transgender identities after gender changes can’t say the same.
But that’s not to say I got off scot-free. My psyche is eternally scarred, and I’ve got a host of health issues from the grand medical experiment.
Here’s how things began.
After convincing myself that I was a woman during a severe mental health crisis, I visited a licensed nurse practitioner in early 2013 and asked for a hormone prescription. “If you don’t give me the drugs, I’ll buy them off the internet,” I threatened.
Although she’d never met me before, the nurse phoned in a prescription for 2 mg of oral estrogen and 200 mg of Spironolactone that very same day.
The nurse practitioner ignored that I have chronic post-traumatic stress disorder, having previously served in the military for almost 18 years. All of my doctors agree on that. Others believe that I have bipolar disorder and possibly borderline personality disorder.
I should have been stopped, but out-of-control, transgender activism had made the nurse practitioner too scared to say no.

Like Seinfeld’s spoof on Oprah...
What’s with this guy? He’s a man, he’s a woman. He’s a woman, he a man. I say pick a gender and stick with it!
Non-binary, was a Hex?
Correct. He does make a passing, cursory mention of those two. But that’s as far as it goes. Maybe he will have more to reflect on in the long term of recovery and recalibration. Amazing that his wife is still married to him.
Hugely important article. Thanks for posting this.
Seinfeld was on
Oprah’s show??
.
Or did I miss
an Episode?
One of my best friends from college days has a 26 year-old daughter. A very bright, fun-loving, sweet, and quite beautiful Italian girl. Then she went to UC Berkley. Then to work for Microsoft. In Seattle. Last year, she decided to become a “man”. Just saw her over Christmas. Surreal, and tragic. My friend and his wife are doing their best to accept her, but are quite understandably distraught. I still cannot believe it myself; a once very attractive girl now with a slight beard and a low, growly voice and harsh, harsh facial features. All very “progressive”, I hear.
Exactly right.
I see what you did there.
Non-binary, was a Hex?
Not mental health. Insane politics is different.
Obnoxious leftist apologia.
Always looking for someone else to blame instead of taking personal responsibility........

The trial lawyers are lining up for this gold mine, and it will not be 10+ years away.
What will tomorrow bring?
Who gave this hot mess a keyboard and an audience ?
The whole article is about exactly how f***ed up he is... Who is publishing this nonsense and WHY ?!
Oy.
I am happy for you and pray for a recovery. The spiritual part of the body is as important as the physical when it comes to healing. There is a Great Physician who can heal all your wounds. His name is Jesus.
[[tens of thousands of dollars have been wasted on medical treatment.]]
And there you have it- sometimes 100’s of 1000’s of dollars are wasted trying to make someone something they are NOT
Like Joe rogan said (paraphrasing) ‘If a girl thinks she is a male, why does she need hormones to alter her biological sex? Doesn’t it mean she really isn’t a male?”
Narcissists do not change, because they cannot change.
