Issy’s story of detransitioning

Please watch this testimony by New Zealand detransitioner Issy. 

It was first aired at the Family First Conference in Auckland in August. 

I met Issy in person and was deeply moved by her story and the woman she is today. She along with fellow detransitioner Zara were given standing ovations and countless hugs for their brave stance.

This brave and incredible young woman tells her story of gross miscare by the health industry that betrayed her and left her permanently scarred. 

Listen to her words and share this with anyone you know who thinks “transitioning” is possible or even a good idea. 

It is not kind, it is immensely cruel to lie to vulnerable young people. 

Learn from Issy’s journey and let’s hope others are prevented from walking this horrible pathway.

Issy 'transitioned' to male at the age of 19, and then had 'top surgery' when she was 21 and a hysterectomy when she was 22. She grew a beard, got a deep voice, her period stopped, there was more sweat & she could make muscle easily. All the stuff she wanted. But she also got massively depressed. But then she came to the realisation that she would always be female - and there was power in acknowledging and accepting that. Issy ‘detransitioned’ and reached the point of fully loving herself, her true self.
