      Thanks Blaire! I 💗 you!!
      Funny story... about a year ago I was on the ask transgender reddit (concerned parent of a trans identifying daughter here:-)).... a young person was on there asking for recommendations on who to have his mom watch for good information about trans issues. He mentioned his mom had been watching you, and several ppl were saying he should give her OTHER ppl to watch and that you were horrible and a transphobe.
      Ha ha suckers!!
      Those comments are what piqued my interest in checking you out. Silver lining to the hater clouds my dear!!

      Oh, and I love Shapeshifter too💕 I'm sorry for the losses he's had, truly heartbreaking.
      I want to tell him something in case he hasn't heard of it.
      Oxytocin is the bonding/love hormone that is produced by many physical activities, including sex. It sounds like Shape has been robbed of his ability to orgasm or even enjoy sex. BUT he can still get the feel good emotions that we get after sex by physical closeness, massages, etc. There are other "feel good" hormones too (dopamine, serotonin, endorphins). When ppl talk about the potential risks of SRS and it's impact on sexual function i feel like they leave out the part about how sex gives us both physical AND EMOTIONAL well-being and without it.... we can suffer in multiple ways. I grieve for the loss Shapeshifter has and I hope someone can help guide him in ways to nuture his body and his mind.... and how he can achieve the feelings of intimacy and love and bonding even with his limitations 💗💗💗

      If I had to formulate maybe the most important question to ask a feminine biological male who wants to transition it would be this:
      Are you transitioning because of gender dysphoria or are you depressed that as a feminine man there seems to be certain men you can’t date and you want to date them and you think if you transition you would be able to…for me this has to be asked. It’s the elephant in the room.
      We know gay men generally are attracted to masculinity. So clearly feminine gay men are desiring to be loved by a man who is attracted to your femininity not your masculinity so your odds of finding a gay man who is attracted to you is low. So clearly you need to find straight men who once you had a sex change wouldn’t care…or men who like both biological woman and trans woman.
      I can say that there are masculine men like myself who I guess you could say are bisexual or just those that are attracted to femininity. It’s funny cause you called the men that didn’t want you to get the full sex change tyranny chasers. But in sense that shows the sense of self hatred that is buried. The ones that are genuinely are attracted to who you are as you are just those with a fetish. And yet you want the guys who would only like you if you chopped your dick off. That just shows you how our society makes people hate those that have your back and are drawn to those that don’t.

They just told me all my complications like constant puking blood and agony for 2 years were ‘good for weight loss’ and to drink root beer and see my normal doctor when I called and called for help. The truth was, I wasn’t that big to start with, (167 lb) and should never have been operated on, but I was in a bad place and they saw $$$$. It’s an industry just like selling cars.

The mental health issues NEED to be addressed at the very least while making these decisions about altering your body. I cant stress enough how little this is being talked about and young trans people need to be DILIGIGENT on getting their mindset in the right space before rushing into life alrtering decisions.

      I've said your words almost verbatim. I occasionally share detransitioning stories because of exactly that. How can people make an actual informed choice when the other side of the coin is rarely, if ever, heard? As well as when they are, they are most often demonized and hated within the trans world. Body dysmporphia is real, but not nearly on the scale we are seeing it. It's truly sad and disheartening what we're seeing happen to people.

      That is a parents job, to as much as possible protect their child(ren) from their own self, at the same time teaching them how to look at all sides of a decision. It's what is so scary about these parents pushing for their young kids to change their outside instead of focusing on healing the inside, and counseling to find out where the desire to look different is really coming from. Maybe it's bc it would be revealed that they are causing emotional trauma to their child. I pray for the internal healing of all.

What’s most scary are the parents out here transitioning their little boys because the kid likes to wear girls dress up clothes. The Saccone Joleys here on CZcams have a little boy, Eduardo & he has always liked wearing his older sisters dress up clothes & playing with her Barbies. The dad had issues himself as a child (liked wearing girl clothes although he admits he’s a heterosexual man) yet somehow thinks this behavior in his son means he’s transgender? Now I’m no authority & I know it’s unpopular to question transgenderism. But this boy is #2 of 4, his parents busy influencers. I can’t help but feel they’re a bit eager to slap a label on him. Eduardo (or Eddy as he goes by now) himself said when asked how he knew he was transgender didn’t say “I always felt like a girl” or something similar. His answer was that his sister Emilia watches Tik Tok & she told him he was trans 🥴 I think it’s far too easy for a child who just likes sparkly things to be labeled trans & go along with it for all the extra attention it gets him & his parents encourage it because hey, anything for the views right? They’ve done huge videos about all of it & bought him gifts, thrown him parties. As I said I know it’s in popular to question it, but having watched the family since this boy was a baby & seeing all the videos & interviews with him & the family on UK news, I just can’t help but wonder if he’s truly trans or the parents are just happy to slap a label on him.

    Thank you for the compassionate interview and the insights gained from it. I find sadly though that the lessons learned here could only come from the experience as it occurred. He said himself that he didn’t listen to his parents. I find it hard to believe that if a doctor tried to talk him out of transitioning; at the time he would have called the doctor a transphobe and searched out the same affirming care doctors that he now realizes are doing harm. Hopefully a lot of people struggling with gender identity see this and the lesson sinks in for them before it’s too late. I feel for this person deeply and hope they are able to find happiness.

    I know this is an older video but I just saw it. I am a biological female and often fear speaking my thoughts but feel like I can safely express them here. First, thank you ShapeShifter for your honesty and your amazing bravery in telling it. I'm sorry we, as society, have failed you. You mentioned more research should be done (a year later and I don't think that has been done) but research on women's health, in general, is very lacking. For years medications were only studied on men and then physicians were told to just decrease the dose for women. Or that it was too hard to study women because our hormones made it too complicated. So I don't hold much hope in the medical community doing much research, especially on male-to-female transition and hormones and such. I am a middle-aged genetic female who is finished having children and I was not allowed to have my reproductive system removed until a physician deemed it medical necessity ( for reasons such as fibroids or cysts and even then they must be growing, changing or causing severe issues.) And if you are under 40, forget about even that most of the time. So I don't understand why we are allowing young people, and now KIDS to make a decision of this magnitude so lightly. Again, thank you for being honest about your experience. I hope that our society will wake up and see the damage we are doing to people with our rose colored descriptions of life after surgeries and hormones. You can change everything about yourself outwardly ,but what makes you YOU, which includes our demons and fears and traumas, don't go away because you removed a part of your body. Mental health issues cannot be corrected by anesthesia and surgery, and those actions can often exacerbate the very things we are running from. You are beautiful! Not because of your hair or nails or breasts....but because you are a human and your heart is full of love for others, shown by your brave statements to help others avoid the pain you have experienced. Thank you!!! And thank you Blair for being so open to showing the darker side of your community. You are also beautiful, in part, because of the truths you speak. ❤️

      ... and truly, my intention here isn't to be rude, but put yourself back in that chair at the doctor's office before you transitioned. Would you have been ok with or accepted it if the doctor told you not to go through with it? That there were other options? That no matter what you try to do, you'll never be the opposite sex?
      Hindsight is 2020 (and we're going to have a whole lot more of that going forward) but at the moment, it's radical trans people and their incredibly radical allies that are causing medical professionals to fear telling you the truth. They've got us by the balls, metaphorically speaking. This is society now and until a whole lot more of you start speaking out (total respect to you for doing just that) nothing will change. It's only going to get way worse before it gets better.

    As a psychiatrist, I treated patients with gender dysphoria. Because I consulted to continue therapy, was anti GAS surgical procedures, was against hormone treatment for underage (18) - I was FIRED by my hospital. I continue in a private practice. First thing you should understand, hospitals make a lot of money on trans procedures, post op, and especially on drugs because we get financial incentives from Pharma corps. This is a very lucrative business, they donate & target specifically the education committees/unions, entertainment industry and pay for many of the trans surveys. Once you transition, your a client for LIFE$. What happened to self-love? Embracing your individuality? You do not need to physically alter yourself to become happy, that you must find within.

    Matt Walsh said after he released his documentary “What is a Woman” that one of the doctors that he interviews in his movie had cut off the genitals of a 16 year old boy. How is a child able to even make these decisions that are life altering, including never being able to produce children after that. What child even knows if he wants kids later in life? It is heartbreaking what is happening to kids by these doctors. And like he said, they need more time to process any childhood traumas, and get a “hug”, and it’s okay to be feminine, or a tomb boy.

When I decided not to medically transition (for a myriad of reasons), the therapist kept pushing for it.

      I knew that without even being a nurse. That's one argument I make for sex reassignment surgery. You are literally fighting your own body and will have to do that every day for the rest of your life. Think about that for a moment. Normal every day people wrestle with their own minds about reasons to NOT get a surgery for normal medical conditions because we know that ALL surgery is risky. Surgery is always the LAST resort and the only choice at the end. When we go under anasthetic we tell our loved ones that we love them and we say a little prayer to ourselves because we HOPE we wake up!!! Ugh! People are duped and scammed into this experimental lifestyle. There is no historical data to backup the long term safety and consequences of all these procedures, chemical or sugical.

      The "hole" that is made is not like that. I've had SRS done by a good surgeon. While when done badly it can go as wrong as Shape Shifters it's not always that way. IF the surgeon did the job right it's not a "hole" bloody and scabby ans scaring over or whatever. If the surgeon does the job right it is basically a pocket of skin, made right where the vagina would be. Diallating is then to strech the muscles so that you can you know ... use it.

Like for anything and when he’s in a bind she’s always helping as much as she can. Sometimes people are addicted to just being the victim and using things not going their way all the time as an excuse to do whatever they wanted to anyway.

      Most trans people come out then go to therapy then transition. The ones serious don’t go in blind. The non binary or gender non conformists do.

      The problem is that Blaire White mocks non-binary people and goes out of her way to tell others they aren’t legitimate trans people creating a culture of hate for non-binary people. Then these non-binary people feel pressured to undergo surgeries to validate their transness when they don’t need it.

      @Marygraphy how are you supposed to explain what feeling like a woman is like? Blair feels that way and even she can’t explain it. It’s not a definition issue, it’s therapists not taking the time to fully meet people where they’re at, and doctors not fully disclosing risks of bottom surgery.

      Beyond that, we need medical professionals to do good by their patients regardless of if they have strong familial ties. If I walked into a surgeons place and asked him to blind me he would say no way! Even if I wouldn’t take no for an answer, he would turn me away. The same should be true for these awful procedures. There will always be vulnerable, mentally ill, delusional, lonely, desperate people and they deserve to be cared for and not butchered too!
