5 Things to Know About the Senate Hearing on Transgender ‘Medicine,’ Chloe Cole’s Testimony

When a detransitioner testified to members of Congress about the harm she suffered from experimental transgender medical interventions and advocated for laws against such procedures on minors, Democrats attempted to frame their opposition to such laws in terms of parental rights and medical privacy.

“The entire premise of transgenderism is that I will take my own life if I don’t transition, and yet here I am today,” Chloe Cole, a young woman who underwent hormone procedures and a double mastectomy in pursuit of a transgender identity before returning to identify with her biological sex, told the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions.

“I hadn’t even had my first kiss,” she explained. “How could they take away part of my womanhood before I was old enough to call myself one?”

“I have no breasts, because they were replaced with scars,” Cole added. Before the surgery, “the surgeon confirmed with me that my breasts were perfectly healthy.”

Cole argued that transgender ideology inverted medicine.

“This is not medicine,” she said. “Medicine heals what is sick. But me being female was not a disease, the lie was the disease.”

“Once doctors denied that boundary between male and female, they also denied the boundary between child and adult,” Cole argued. “That’s how my confusion became evidence, my parents’ instincts became ‘bigotry,’ and a surgeon’s knife became ‘care.’”

She described the harassment she faced from transgender activists when she publicly detransitioned, saying activists tried to intimidate her into silence.
