This is a big deal, and people need to understand why so many are against the transitioning of children, and that parents need to be stopped from transitioning their young children. These are adult decisions, and if the child wants to decide after they are grown, that's their decision.

Retired Navy SEAL made famous after coming out as trans announces detransition: 'Destroyed my life'

A retired Navy SEAL who became famous nearly 10 years ago after coming out as transgender announced he is detransitioning and called on Americans to "wake up" about how transgender health services are hurting children.

"Everything you see on CNN with my face, do not even believe a word of it," Chris Beck, formerly known as Kristin Beck, told conservative influencer Robby Starbuck in an interview published earlier this month. "Everything that happened to me for the last 10 years destroyed my life. I destroyed my life. I'm not a victim. I did this to myself, but I had help."

"I take full responsibility," he continued. "I went on CNN and everything else, and that’s why I’m here right now. I’m trying to correct that."

Beck gained notoriety in 2013 when he spoke with CNN’s Anderson Cooper about transitioning to a woman.

I'm curious as to why he ended up destroying his life. He wasn't an impressionable teen, he was an adult, a battle hardened one at that, when he decided that he was a woman. There is a lot more to this story.

 

Wasnt he the first "transition" paid for by the military? Did he pay them back yet?

 

From what I remember of the story, he did all of the transitioning after he got out of the Navy, so I guess this was on his own dime.

 

Veterans Administration provides health care to former military.

 

Err yes but at that time they weren't doing sex changes.

 

Wernt they offering it under Obama until Trump rescinded the policy?

He said he was authorized for hormone therapy by the Department of Veterans Affairs after just one meeting following his 2011 retirement and took the treatment until 2015.

Huh, I didn't know they were doing that back then.

 

Tucker Carlson is about to interview former navy seal.

 

Looks like maybe they were doing everything OTHER than surgery back then and currently Biden is in the process of changing regulations to include surgeries.
Tucker interview didnt discuss his conversion process, just his warning to kids and criticism of the "ideology" promoting sex change to kids.

I CANT IMAGINE what that would be like. Going through surgery, dick and balls removed and or converted to a surgically constructed vagina. All the shopping for clothes, mastering of makeup techniques. Living as a woman for years and one day looking in the mirror and concluding oops. Called that one wrong.

This concept of treating a mental disorder with cosmetic surgery is absurd. Especially since it would seem that the surgery does absolutely nothing to improve the mental disorder. AND PROMOTING the concept of cosmetic surgery to change your sex to school kids is bizarre.
