Pretty incredible story, formerly trans person suing their medical providers -- case now before Texas Supreme Court
I made the decision to face who I really was—without the medicine, without the hormones or additional surgeries—six months after this experience. While taking classes at the University of Texas at Austin, I began to make sense of my transgender identity through the lens of human development. Piecing together my turbulent family life and adolescent internet habits, among other things, it dawned on me that I had never been “born in the wrong body.” There was no way to be born in the wrong body at all.
Today, at 23, I’m giving myself the grace to understand my gifts and purpose. Through this journey of self-exploration I have come to realize how coercive gender-identity ideology was for me, disguising harm as compassion. I also realized that sometimes the compassionate response is the one that sets firm boundaries.
What I experienced at the hands of my nurse practitioner, therapist and surgery team was wrong. People like me deserve justice. I believe that God places burdens on people who can carry them, and I trust that whatever comes next will be made right in time.

Great motto for The American Citadel.
Hard Money, Harder Lines.
You don't have to be ideological or bigoted to realize that the incentives within this space are all wrong, that the science is poor, and that there's a radical wing of gender ideologues trying to push their unpopular ideas on innocent and unsuspecting children.
