8 years ago today, I voluntarily had my breasts sliced off. The worst, most evil thing I have ever done. I remember my grandmother called me crying the night before begging me not to go through with it. She asked me, “has your heart turned to stone?” It had. I did it anyway. I do not share my story to try to evade responsibility or blame others. I did it. Dr. Alison Shore just held the knife. I was encouraged by peers and professionals, but at the end of the day, it’s my fault. I am the reason why my breasts are gone forever. Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa.
I’m 5 weeks post breast reconstruction, but I still won’t be able to feed any future babies. And as I get used to these new “breasts,” I remember how my original ones felt. It’s not the same at all. Let my story be a cautionary tale to all trans-identified people. All of you are potential future detransitioner, and while there is life after detransition, dealing with the irreversible consequences is nothing short of devastating. It’s been 8 years and I still curse my past self for making this horrible, selfish, downright stupid decision.
My piece for tomorrow's Sunday Times on the Darren Rigby, the BBC apology and what it says about their treatment of trans stories. Thanks to all who spoke to me for it.

We were the ones to completely dominate and conquer the world for a reason
The rest of the world tries to move to our countries still, even whilst we’re in our current fallen state, the lowest we’ve been for a long time, for a reason
We are simply better
THIS 👇 is conversion therapy, delivered directly in UK classrooms.
Lessons that teach young school children that a girl, a bullied, unhappy girl who wants to
- cut her hair short
- wear suits
- kiss a princess
is not really a girl but instead a boy! 🤦
This sexist, homophobic retelling of a fairy tale converts a gender non-conforming girl, who may grow up to be lesbian, into a ‘straight boy’.
According to the new government draft Bill on ‘conversion practices’, schools and teachers who use these resources in films, books, worksheets will surely be guilty of carrying out abusive conversion practices.
The bill defines conversion practices as “any conduct with the intention of causing the individual to have or not have (or to believe that they have or do not have) a particular sexual orientation or transgender identity”.
Teaching vulnerable young children that girls who prefer short hair and suits are really boys will certainly cause some to believe that they have a transgender identity.
An abusive conversion practice is defined in terms of causing “serious harm to the individual’s physical or mental health, or “serious alarm or distress to the individual”.
What could be more harmful to a child’s physical health than setting them on a path to puberty blockers then cross sex hormones, with the resultant destroyed fertility, loss of sexual function, cognitive impairment, bone damage and potential complications from future plastic surgeries?
What could be more harmful to a child’s mental health than to sow the seed that there is something wrong with them – that they have been ‘born in the wrong body’. How much alarm and distress will that cause to the child and their family?
Thank you so much to everyone for sharing & donating 🙏. It is exactly like @WomenReadWomen says here. She describes my situation with Ultimate Pool in a nutshell so perfectly. Absolute legend. Please keep sharing the Crowdjustice link in my bio. Love you all ❤️
Great news. The Labour Party has finally found a woman they fancy as leader. It's a man who'll be 'a female PM in all but sex.'
A senior figure in the party actually thought that was a good thing to say out loud.

Anybody else feel there’s a particularly dark cloud hovering over us?
How did we arrive at a place where the minority have the biggest voices and influence and the majority are too scared to stand up for what’s right?
Ignorance is no longer an excuse, by the way.
They Said Japan Was Safe.
Now a massive Islamic festival is taking over Nishi-Yodogawa Ward in Osaka. 🇯🇵
This is not harmless celebration.
This is the beginning of takeover.
The same country that kept its borders closed for decades is now watching its streets change.
The gates don’t have to be wide open for Islam to take over.
No nation survives if it stops fighting for its own identity.
Japan - don’t become the next London.
Fight for your freedom before it's too late.
Today we learned more details about the attack on three young children outside a creche in Dublin.
We already know that the Algerian Muslim responsible packed his belongings, grabbed his passports, and brought it all to a mosque on Talbot Street where they agreed to look after it.
Then he started hunting children.
Today it was revealed he initially planned on targeting another group of kids, but changed his mind because they were older and physically stronger than the kids he eventually attacked.
He waited, and instead attacked five and six year olds, the most vulnerable targets be could find.
When their teacher intervened, he stabbed her too, then went back to trying to kill the kids.
Why did he do this?
He said he was angry because he was denied a welfare payment.
