My awesome guest Jade is a 23-year-old detransitioner who was born female, thought she was transgender and transitioned to become a trans man / started testosterone at 18, then decided to detrans (reverse her transition to live as a woman again) at age 20. These detransition stories are so heartbreaking yet so important for the world to hear, so I am very grateful for Jade being brave enough to come onto my show and share her personal story through it. Please leave lots of love for Jade in the comments for me, and give it a thumbs up so her story can be pushed to more people to hear! Love, Buck
There's going to be heaps of these detransiting stories in the future especially in the young people it's completely different with the older generation because they couldn't do it back in the day 60s 70s and 80s we really suffered until recently hopefully 1 day in the future it will be no big deal society goes through so many changes over time
As a parent, I would have lost my 💩. I was bullied as well being a tomboy and better at sports than 99% of the boys. Jade, ❤❤❤. You are a survivor and a bright light dear!
I’m so glad that you can bring this topic up and that you, and your guests can do it with humor to balance the horror of it. Otherwise it would be intolerable, the sadness would overwhelm me.
Fantastic job Buck and Jade. We need to start realizing that trans isn’t this special phenomenon and children can now be fast tracked like Jazz Jennings…trans is actually an incredibly complex nuanced thing that cannot benefit from this bizarre indoctrination
The fact that Jade asked if the injections would stop her from having kids and being pregnant, should have been a sign to the nurse. Its medical malpractice, and I hope Jade finds peace and with herself. Much love to you Jade.
This is what I was thinking. Would an actual trans man not be supremely uncomfortable about getting pregnant? Why does this not show that she was not meant for this at all?
@@ulfrinn5980no but they can refer back to a doctor if they see anything of concern and that statement was. If a patient goes in for an operation to remove their right leg and the doctor starts marking up their left leg a nurse is supposed to speak up. It's not always listened to but they have the ability and knowledge to do it
I studied Neuroscience. The BRAIN does not finish developing until age 25 or later. So for this SERIOUS and IRREVERSIBLE procedure, no one should start this till 25 minimum. SO it is more about the brain. And this is why many scientists want a younger person to have lower charges for crimes committed under age 25. Thank you Jade for sharing. You are a wise, balanced and beautiful soul, inside and out. YOU shine Jade. You made a difference and what you say matters greatly. Best to you.
there is a massive mental health crisis right now, exacerbated by the pandemic and several other factors that I believe have unleashed a kraken on the culture-wars.
I 100% agree that people should not be considered adults until age 21. You have to be 21 to drink/smoke yet18 to vote/join the military. I feel as tho children are being taken advantage of, using these standards. As well as chikdren being blamed for making so called "adult decisions" when they do not understand the consequences, they do not even understand that those are "adult choices" on most levels. I am almost 36, and I didn't even start to feel like an adult until 30. There is a reason that families lived together(intergenerational living) after getting married/having children. Guidance was still needed and older generations had wisdom to share/grandchildren benefited from having actual adults in the home. Unfortunately our bodies develop to adults between 13 and 18 but our brains require until at least 25. Biological speaking, we are pressed to have children while we are still children. So the cycle continues and not that the world has become so small from being interconnected, these consequences have become compounded.
Interesting. Yet no one will bat an eye when a girl below age of 25 gets married and/or has children. The male partner is usually older. Much younger girls get sucked into relationships and motherhood all the time. Where is the outrage? Maybe because traditionally it is acceptable? There is nothing more irreversable than having a child.
This is concerning, if they can talk someone as pretty as you into thinking you are not pretty and should change anything they could talk anyone into it!
That's why they target young children because most have a problem with themselves during puberty. And children are easy to convince of something that isn't good for them.
@@Fuzz82most of the Goofy looking young kids look fantastic later on when they've grown up a bit. There are normally only a few real bullies and the other kids do it with them because they don't want to be that target either. that still doesn't make it right though.
I believe her about the teacher bullying her for sure. I remember when I was 8, I got adopted and had to do a name change in the middle of the school year, and for whatever reason, the teacher absolutely hated me. It started out with her telling me that my name isn't my adopted name, I'm doing it for attention, and then she would criticise me for small things like my handwriting, if my uniform had a wrinkle, if my nails happened to be a bit dirty after recess, if I didn't pronounce an English word exactly as she did even though I'd hear a native speaker hear something else...absolutely anything, she would nitpick. It didn't help that I was 2 years younger than everyone else in the class because I went to school earlier. Some adults are just miserable. I feel so bad for her, especially having OCD at a young age and having teachers pick on her for it. I developed OCD in my teens and it took at least a year and a half to get it under control. To this day (I'm 31) I still have some symptoms but through therapy I've learned strategies to keep myself from doing rituals. EDIT: Just got to the part with the LGBT therapist. Holy cannoli, that sounds predatory as hell. I feel bad for today's kids that are struggling with gender identity, knowing therapists like her exists. It makes me think actual skillful therapists are rare.
I also got bullied by kids AND teachers. It was horrible. The teachers were desperate to be popular with the kids, so they picked on a few of us and made fun of us all the time. It was me, the "nerd" of the class, and a poor girl with severe learning disabilities who would cry very easily. They laughed at her for crying, and made the entire class laugh about it. To me, school was absolute hell and home was like an oasis of peace.
@@lyraria . Sorry for your pain and suffering as a child. How are you doing today, and do you find it difficult to trust people?? Blessings to you always.
Similar experience, and she turned the other way when people with tease me about my cleft lip that was then,more visible before surgery. They are indeed rare. I'm also an introvert, and avoidant. Don't like attention on me like a microscope and feel too vulnerable being exposed, or compelled to minimized deranged aspects. I'm 38 and have been in and out since age 5. It has not impressed. Kinda corny, actually. I don't understand why people are so gung-ho about it. I think a lot of people just like talking about themselves tbh.
It's been my experience that most teachers are just downright awful. I had 2 or 3 good teachers and a couple truly terrible teachers. Most just didn't care. My high-school counselors were patheticly awful too
I hope you are doing okay now!! I related to your comment and have also been through a lot between being adopted and struggling socially. People can be horrible to those who appear or act a little "different." In my experience, I wasn't bullied so much as neglected? Like not invited to things, didn't really have friends etc. My self esteem is better than it was but I think for superficial reasons like I finally was pretty enough for guys to want me in my 20's and my social skills improved. TW- adoption + Child neglect discussion I also was adopted- 18 months/year and a half from eastern Europe to the USA. I was neglected and malnourished in the orphanage wnich was understaffed. Locals were very poor and no one had enough food. My birth mom drank while pregnant with me and I eventually became an alcoholic/addict too. People don't realize that even babies who get adopted right away into the best of families have that trauma of being separated from the mother. People look at adoption as this beautiful story where this family saved this poor child from impoverished countries or shitty foster cares. They tell us we "should be grateful" for getting adopted. Without realizing the trauma we usually have from the separation and people also don't realize that kids can get adopred into abusive homes! 😕 While I am grateful I got adopted into a generally good situation, I still have a lot of unprocessed trauma from events I don't even remember. People discount my trauma bc I didn't remember it (includinf "professionals" at a trauma clinic I went to.) But my subconscious unfortunately does and out of all the professionals I've seen, my social worker has been the only one who really understands me. Therapists aren't usually trained for adoptees, even neglect doesn't get enough attention in the medical field vs. Other kinds of mistreatment. Idkl if you have C-PTSD/PTSD like I do, I just noticed we have been thru similar things. I'm 31 and finally have adequate supports so I'm no longer just in survival mode. I finally feel at a place where I can address my trauma and heal. Wishing you the best and that you have the love and support you need. ❤️
Yes and they can’t articulate some difference as children so they go with the most powerful insult they can think of. ugly is a big one for girls if love is made for beauty queens
Thank you for this- she reminds me of my daughter- growing up she was so girly girl - my daughter hit puberty at 9 and by the time she was in 5th grade she was very very developed. She suffered depression from the bullying and OCD. When the pandemic hit, she hit us with her being trans…… I would soon find out months later that her “best friend” was the worst of the bullies. I’m trying to be supportive- but I know in my bones she’s not trans. Everyday my heartbreaks - I just hope she realizes this is not a good path before it’s too late. She knows how I feel about all of this, and we have had a few explosive fights because of this. I was raised in the “old school LGBT” community- and it all feels like such a slap in the face with what’s going on now. These interviews give me some hope. Thank You
my heart goes out to you. it must be a parent's worst fear - that your kid will do irreversible harm to themselves and you cannot stop it. my mother put that fear into me about getting pregnant, like that was irreversible harm
I'd try seeing a professional to see if she indeed has dysphoria. From what you've said it's very possible she might have body dysmorphia, in which victims of bullying or just being unhappy with their bodies will think they are trans, because they're unhappy in their body. But it's a different thing.
I follow Jade on X. She is pretty hard on herself sometimes, and as a mom of a daughter close to her age, it breaks my heart. Both of my kids are diagnosed with OCD, so I know how difficult it can be dealing with intrusive thoughts and obsessions. Jade is absolutely beautiful❤️
She is very hard on herself…it was becoming rather saddening to watch so I had to unfollow her. 💔 Not out of dislike or anything, just need to be more careful about the vibe on my X feeds lately (as I am exactly the same with using my X account to tweet out every self loathing train of thought that I have like it’s a diary)… I wish her well because she absolutely deserves to think more highly of herself.
I feel the fact she was asking about later getting pregnant would be a red flag to not being trans and something else. A trans man doesn’t want to do the most womanly thing ever, have you said that Buck?
Yes. But I think it should be noted some trans people still want to save their genetic material in order to have a child maybe through a surrogate later.
23. Oh my god. An ACTUAL child. Buck I love the empathy and kindness you have when talking to these De-Transitioners. No blame or anger at them, just love and kindness. You are such a blessing to this world.
@amsterdamethe point being that she would have HAD to be a MINOR when this all took place-fill in the damn blank with context clues or are you F’ing dumb or stupid or what
@amsterdameshe was a minor when she transitioned IF YOU WATCHED THE INTERVIEW, so what are you even talking about? Also, the brain doesn’t finish development until around 25 so yes in terms of psychology she absolutely is a kid.
@@Kryssi13obviously, they're responding to the OP's comment of "23 OMG an actual child". Your brain doesn't function in a childlike state until your 25th birthday, you're pretty well finished cooking by 23.
When you're born in the 60s and 70s to us this girl is basically a child. In fact my children are her age. It's not creepy AT ALL. When you are in your 50s and 60s you will understand..@amsterdame
@@jayaCatLvr-ys5ix why not? I think it depends but I'd say they are victims if they were manipulated into transitioning or were lied to by doctors about the hormones, puberty blockers or surgery. Someone can't consent to treatment like this if they're not properly informed and there are too many cases where people regret transitioning or get severe side effects from the hormones that wee common risks and they simply were not informed! There was someone who had a heart condition and informed their doctor about it before transitioning. Apparently the surgery was horrible for people with his condition and the doctor didn't say anything. Also, many people feel that kids cannot properly consent to these treatments. "Affirmative' therapists push them to transition and doctors prescribe them pills and surgeons do the surgeries. Puberty blockers especially can have drastic side effects and are given to kids. The kids/their parents are not properly informed about the risks. In any of these cases, the doctors will sometimes "ghost" the patient once they start complaining about the side effects and especially if they say things like "You should have informed us qboit the risks with this medication/hormones/surgery." I feel like we are going to start seeing more and more lawyers taking on clients who were lied to or otherwise experienced medical malpractice! Unfortunately, when money is involved, doctors might feel motivated to not tell the truth. We saw this with Oxycontin in the US, for example. Unfortunately, there are people making loads of money besides the scenes and medical provides like thr doctors hoping to get a cut! Patient safety and wellness comes second to money. Hopefully this is not the case with every doctor, some have a conscience and will do tbeir best to tell patients about all the known risks with these treatments. And besides the trans stuff, there are other medical conditions where even a minor may need something like Lupron. And even then, the doctor should inform them of the treatment, side effects and alternative options, if possible. They're handing some of these meds out like candy when they're heavy shit and can devastate a patient. When they could informed them of other options like fry just social transitioning for a while and see how you feel. If the kid is trans, that alone could help them feel better and give them time to learn about further treatment options. It's much easier to come back from social transitioning if you regret it.
Teacher bullying, unfortunately, is not super uncommon. I have severe dyslexia to the point that I sometimes will write entire sentences backwards and not even notice because my effed up brain thinks it looks right, and I had a teacher in middle school that would announce it to the class every time I did that or flipped letters around by saying "make sure to check for mistakes. You don't want to be illiterate like (anon)" and it encouraged some kids to bully me to the point I got pulled out and was homeschooled for a while. I feel so bad for Jade, but what an amazing young lady she is.
I was bullied by my second grade teacher all year when I was sick with a serious undiagnosed illness that could’ve killed me. Not only did she refuse to believe me when I was crying in pain, she gaslit me into thinking I was making it up and screamed at me in front of the class and made an example out of me. And hid her behavior from the other teachers and principal- acted completely different when another authority was in earshot. Teacher can lust for blood and indulge their sadism by hurting children very easily. But just like priests, the world venerates them as some decent force for good and other adults have a hard time believing they could be so fuɔ>|’d up.
Geezus. These accounts are so disturbing. I was recently speaking to someone who had to switch their son’s school because of cyber bullying that teachers and administrators co-signed on. Mind blowing that adults would act this way
This happened to me in grade 2. She would even call me up to read out my mistakes to the class so they could laugh at me. I became so quiet and withdrawn, this teacher used to make me take my snow suit on and off all recess while the kids went outside, made me face the corner while the kids were doing times tables and then hit me with a ruler on my hands when i asked how to do what she just taught everyone else. One bad teacher can do some lasting damage. Im still terrified of anyone reading anything ive hand written
I’m exactly the same, extreme dyslexia to the point that I couldn’t read or write at all until 11. I had given up completely until I switched schools because my teachers before that literally did not believe in dyslexia and just said I was stupid or not listening - to my face and in front of my entire class. This wasn’t even that long ago, it was the 1990s. When I switched schools and went into a different learning environment everything changed completely. I didn’t even need to tell anyone that I had dyslexia because I was doing so well and able to mask it. The bullying from the teachers in my first school left its mark however, especially because it got so bad that even the parents of my friends began to tell their kids to not associate with me because they thought I was a bad influence. The parents of one friend in particular took it further, but that is another story. At one point I thought it was only me that got targeted by adults as a child and I fully believed that I deserved it. As I got older however and discovered the internet, I found hundreds of other stories just like mine. Adults picking on children is unfortunately quite common and usually it happens to the kids who are already vulnerable for some reason.
Reading your comment and several others I realize how so many of us were tormented in school by the adults who were responsible for actually keeping us safe. I remember a teacher calling me stupid and using me as an example for that… Im an immigrant so at age 6 I was barely understanding English but I wasn’t fluent. It was hell for me, kids went along with the teacher and I cried every morning hoping my parents wouldnt send me to school. I really hope parents read all of these stories and pay much more attention to what situation their kids might be dealing with. I became very insecure and self conscious because of the bullying. At now age 32 im finally happy and embracing myself fully, psychologically, emotionally, physically… my parents had no idea of course, they just wanted me to learn.. didnt help they werent fully fluent then either.
School administrators are pushing teachers to follow this ideology in the name of compassion. I’m a teacher who pushed back and told them I would not lie to parents. One of my students (male) 10th grader was “girl” all year, and by his 11th grade year, he had socially transitioned back male and told me “I don’t know what I was thinking.” He dated other males as a “girl” and realized he is gay and didn’t need to transition to female. He seemed so much happier - you could see it in his face.
Whattt? What dating are you talking about at the age of 10 or 11??? That's typical for one's development to stay more with the same gender at the age...I also teach at school and watch kids . They are so childish yet then. But I am not from your country luckily. When all this absurdity comes to my state, hopefully I'll be retired.
What a sweet young lady Jade is. Her parents trusted her with the internet, without realizing that the internet couldn’t be trusted with her. My heart goes out to kids who are shy and lonely, because I was that kid too.
I just want to say how much I appreciate you Buck Angel, for not only giving detransitioners a platform, but also for just being a wonderful person and showing the world how actual trans people behave and live their lives. As my user name indicates I am recovering from liberalism, although I never thought that when I signed up to be a Democrat over 30 years ago, this is where it would be. It makes me sick to see how these bullies go around talking about loving and accepting everyone, yet if you say anything, they don’t agree with, they act like the monsters they are. As a straight 49 year old woman I’d gladly accept you as my “transpa”! I found your channel through Blair white and I just wanna say keep up the good work! Also, all the G.I. symptoms that she is experiencing are caused by removing the gallbladder, which is why you should never have your gallbladder removed unless it’s absolutely necessary but unfortunately they won’t tell you that.
I am 26. If I was just a few years younger this would have been me. I was easily influenced, shy, bullied at a young age, the “emo” kid, and was confused about my sexuality. Luckily when I was in school none of this “trans trend” was a thing. Trans people I did know were and are actually trans.
Same, except I'm 31. I was "emo/goth/scene/alternative", and very vulnerable dealing with abuse, and was being diagnosed with all kinds of things based on my behavior (which was a response to ongoing hell at home), heavily medicated, and very easily influenced. I'd have been a prime target. Scary.
Same. Im a 31 year old lesbian who dropped out of hs for anxirty and depression at grqde 10. I even told my counselor i might be trana when i was 16. She said, "i dont think so" and i never thought about it again.
@@juliana.x0x0oh a fellow 31! We just bypassed the extreme toxicity of now. Thank God for us! Although teens were kinda homiphobic back then still. "ew she probably has a crush on me cuz she's gay" and being ditched, and alao "wow youre gay ?!?" like it's a rare pokemon and id date any straight girl that tried to use me to make themself more interesting. Still better off than todays bull.
@@raaaaaaarr hello fellow 31!❤️ Yeah, I think there's ALWAYS going to be kids making fun of other kids for being different than "mainstream", yknow? That's just low hanging fruit that's easy to pick on someone for. Except for now, because now it's "trendy" to be trans or gay. In my alternative group of friends there was a lot of bi-curious experimentation going on, almost like an in-group fad (or maybe a way to get some attention while rebelling 😂) I had a rough time in school, because I had it rough at home, but I would NEVER wish to have a do-over in the current system. Praying it all blows over and a less damaging trend becomes popular before my 5 yo gets into middle/high school!!!
I feel the same except I’m 32. I experimented with my sexuality then but that’s a different thing, I wasn’t taking irreversible hormones or having surgeries. I’m actually perfectly fine with young people socially transitioning, it’s reversible.
Buck, I'm a nurse (admittedly not in the area of gender medicine) & I didn't know about the issue of atrophy (to that degree) on long term testosterone; certainly not beyond the point of causing more than mild symptoms, let alone to the point of causing sepsis! That's massive, & extremely concerning. I speak to a lot of patients on testosterone as a transgender medicine (as opposed for another reason), & I will certainly be mindful of this potential if they present with concerning symptoms. Thank-you for all you do in these crazy, crazy times. Thank-you too Jade, it's so brave of you to share your story. I'm so sorry for what you went through. It appalls me how that you (& so many others, by the sounds) were not given the information you needed to give informed consent. I wish you well, & hope those involved are held to account one day.
I’m from Scotland and was born in 76 and there was loads of guys with rainbow hair wore make up and had nappies pins the their ears and nose and many other orifices they were called punk rockers…children played in the dirt wearing their mas old high heels no matter the gender🤣🤣🤣 and their was no problems whatsoever….whats going on in the world today is crazy and I think there’s some sort of agenda going on or maybe to stop so many childbirths but it’s definitely something we are not privy to but in a few years we will click n go that’s what it was all about Ty for your content 🤗🤗🫶🏽🫶🏽
stopping childbirth is definitely not part of the agenda. otherwise why is the government trying to ban abortions and contraception? Trust me they still want babies being pumped out and will take away women’s bodily autonomy to keep it that way.
This is by far one of your best guests. I think this video is going to help a lot of young women struggling with gender identity issues. The fact that people would pick on her for detransitioning just proves how toxic they are.
I struggled with body dysphoria growing up caused by childhood SA and an abusive household. I never felt right in my body. I socially transitioned in high school up until I was about 20. I never medically transitioned, thank the lord, but I never felt right claiming to be a detrans since I was never medicalized. I did feel a lot of shame though. Never knew there was a word for what I experienced, desisting. Makes a lot of sense. I’m 23 now and have worked through a lot of my trauma, and love being who I am. I’m expecting my first baby in September and I’m forever grateful that I don’t live with what true transsexuals experience, it seems like a very hard mental illness to live with. Much love Buck, and thank you for sharing your story Jade! You are so beautiful and I hope you get your prince ❤️🩹
Please tell Jade that interview helped my heart. I have a teenage daughter who has socially transitioned and I am terrified every day for her. Her back story is almost identical to Jade's. I need prayers. Thank you Buck for doing what you do. ❤️
Jade, I can TOTALLY attest to the fact that teachers can be bullies sometimes. Some of mine did it to me for various reasons, to include mental health, and other times straight up victim blaming because I had the nerve to "tattle" about the way I was being treated.
Not having a kid at 21ish was probably a blessing in disguise. Really sad though. The adults FAILED her. It's even sadder knowing that this is probably happening RIIGHT NOW to even more children than we can imagine.
I just wanna give her a hug. I'm not much older than her. I was a girly kid but dressed boyish a lot and it scares me that somebody could have put such an idea in my head. I was bullied so bad. I'm so grateful that I found the friend group that i did. We just embraced being weirdos but all it takes is being taken in by the wrong group
I love the fact that your word is getting out there!!! Thank you to all the detransitioners who realize that they've been sold a lie and are willing to tell others about it. Get the TRUTH out there!
It's crazy to me how much things have changed from when I was a teenager and even from when I started transitioning 10 years ago. I knew how I felt growing up, but didn't have words to describe it...and I honestly think that's a good thing. I didn't have people online trying to label me as trans because of how I felt or anyone in the schools making me to consider that I'm trans. I didn't even know what transsexual was until I was 18 and even then I struggled with it, because I was still maturing and I didn't fully understand myself yet (not until I was 25 when I actually started). Jade's story is so important. I feel like these detransitioning stories don't fit the narrative of the modern trans movement and so we just don't hear them. Her story is heartbreaking as someone who is transsexual. The modern mindset about all of this is just so different now and honestly just completely out of hand...kids being allowed and even encouraged to transition before they even really understand themselves, before our brains are fully developed. It's irresponsible and I feel like any of us who dare to question the current status quo get labeled as bigots. I'm rambling, I know, but this video has been really meaningful to me and I felt like I needed to share that it did. Thank you Jade for sharing your story and thank you Buck for giving her this platform to share her story. This is so important right now.
I have a family member who transitioned around 23-24 years old and he did it in a very educated way. Before he started his transition he took the time to, for lack of a better words, self reflect, talk to the proper people including family as well as professionals. He doesn't go around telling everyone he is a trans-man. He doesn't fly a trans flag or a rainbow flag anywhere in his home. He doesn't get involved in gay pride, gay pride month, any of the gay pride parades, ect. He doesn't talk about it and doesn't care to put his business all over the city or internet. All he wants to do is what he calls "pass". He lives a normal life without any extra drama. So many more just want attention and there are few who transitioning are serious and take it seriously.
Yes that’s how you can tell who the real trans people are. The first trans person I met was when I was in highschool. She just appeared as a butch lesbian to me. Was so chill and didn’t bother about pronouns or anything. She ended up transitioning right after graduation and the most I would see is him now looking back on photos and being proud of building the person he always wanted to be. He never made it his entire personality like these “trenders” do these days. He’s a normal guy to anyone who meets him
@@doid4354 The trans persons we are speaking of are not with "the community" and my person had made it plain that he thinks they are loosing their minds wanting to force people to accept them. He said something that never occurred to me and that was "The reason they push it so hard is not because the want acceptance from others but from themselves" and it made total sense. Those who are trans and just want to "pass" and are not involved in the alphabet community, have made it so plain to me that they are ashamed of those who parade around half dressed in front of kids, those who do "drag queen day" at school, the teachers who go behind the parents to encourage and/or help kids to transition and so forth and so on. I could go on for days. I just saw where a teacher was fired because she refused to put a litter box in her classroom to accommodate a child who identifies as a fkn cat!! What is our world coming to? Do you and don't push it on me and I'll have the same respect for you, bottom line!! Edit: misspelling
Jade is such a dear young lady, I'm so pleased she is trying to come out of the nightmare that she was led into. Bless her, bless you Buck for bringing this lovely person on your show to tell her story 🤗
Jade, Im a 23 year old woman. I want to say you are beautiful and I believe you can achieve all of your dreams, especially of being a mother. I am so sorry that you went through what you did. We're the same age, I also went through bullying and body issues and I feel so sad that you didn't find the proper support you needed. You needed a real friend and someone to hype you up and make you feel comfortable in your own skin. Never feel insecure about your voice - it is beautiful (its similar range of my voice, i have a lower tone for a woman) nor anything else about your body. You are on the right track, everything will be okay. Be strong through the medical issues the best you can. My brother is FTM and I feel an affinity toward your story, you are doing amazing. Sorry for the ramble, but I hope you can see this and know we support you and think you're awesome.
I can’t help thinking (also based on at least 2 or more interviews I’ve seen) that the internet has played a huge role in influencing children to doubt their sex. This uncertainty, of feeling not 100 % one or the other is a normal thing for young kids and young adults (hormones are going crazy at this time too). I felt it too, growing up during the 80’s, a little boyish sometimes, which I now think is normal.
This is so disturbing, it's like a cult. So many of these kids, especially girls, clearly have Body Dysmorphia, NOT Dysphoria. Many of them have also suffered SA, which adds to the discomfort about their bodies, especially when puberty happens. I was bullied heavily, and developed Body Dysmorphia - at one stage, I thought if I was a boy, I'd be happier, because there would be less physical judgement. I shudder to think of young people, struggling with Dysmorphia, are not getting the help they need, and, instead, are being herded into decisions that will vastly affect their future. This terrible rhetoric that "Trans kids will k*ll themselves without access to the drugs they need!" is the other way around, forcing children to damage their bodies beyond salvage when they clearly have self-image problems is one of the most horrifically negligent, and dangerous things we are allowing to happen. Jade - you are a beautiful young woman, and I am so happy you are here and you are on the track to happiness
My granddaughter went through early puberty amd had no friends except on the internet Her story is so much like yours. She is on testosterone now for 2 years and i have not seen her in that time since she moved out of state. I am heartbroken that she made this change , but i still love her.
I'm a huge Blaire White fan.. I was sexually abused by my father and neighbor when I was 9 years old. I also had mental health issues which I didn't realize ,but my mother seen something in me . She got me help when I was 12 . I was a emotional train wreck, wishing to be hit by a train . 7 mental health hospital's and countless medications. I'm now off a lot of meds and doing much better. I still have triggers and bad days , but I'm thankful to have made it this long ..Jade is beautiful and I wish her all the best in life . Thank you Buck for your help and support for other's.
You are aware that Blair White still has his D*ck right!? Just cause he has boobs and makeup doesnt make him a full M2F! I can see why the commenter said he instead if she.
@@MHS-ql7ee .No.. I don't know all of Blaire White history. She shared about the dating part of her life . But this is much deeper and my story about mental health, sexual abuse and mental health problems pushing meds on people that they don't even know how they work . It's been 49 years for me , but I'm scared for those being harmed by pedophiles and drugs . Sexual abusers know how to groom their prey , they find a weakness and work their sickness into your life . Thank you for asking, and I hope this helped .
If the born women today could be as respectful and beautiful as Blaire White what a difference the world would be . These born women today are a complete mess. Buck and Blaire hold themselves to a much higher standard in life . I respect Buck as a good Man ,and Blaire White as a beautiful woman.
OMG the first part I’m already drawn instantly I had the same experience in elementary with teachers that did the same thing except I had ADD. Never did anything to hurt anyone but it just annoyed them which is not great for a teacher to display negative emotions regarding how a student functions because it really does stick for a long time. Also had great parents but the world around me was the worst part.
Such a powerful message, thank you for sharing your story! This was like watching a biography on my daughter who is heading down the same path from identical adolescent challenges. I'm finally waking up to the fact that the harder I push, the stronger her resolve to continue. Thank you for your wisdom, insight and courage adding a much-needed layer of common sense to all this insanity.
I work with troubled teens and everything this person has said from early on set puberty, the social anxiety and OCD until recently would manifest its self most often in eating disorders and self harm. Therapy is so important. Vulnerable young people are being swept away in what feels like a machine. It breaks my heart.😢
I can’t believe a therapist told her she hasn’t moved on. This poor girl has urinary incontinence and has to shave every day, that’s debilitating in itself without any pressure from a therapist
Sending you so both so much love. I'm so sorry this happened to you Jade. Thank you for sharing your story. I'm a parent of young kiddos and I've always felt close and connected to the lgbt community until 2021, because the energy changed so fast. It's so hard to navigate this world right now, and I feel so blessed to have found your channel Buck, and I so appreciate you bringing Jade on this episode.
Buck, you should create a new series along the lines of "To Catch a Predator," where you pretend to be a teen and investigate adults online encouraging KIDS to transition to "fix all of their issues." It would be so interesting to see first hand what kinds of things they are telling these kids. Love your content, thank you for all that you do!
She is incredibly pretty. I can imagine that for someone like her, with social anxiety, not feeling comfortable in so many ways, and then on top of that interacting with people who don't understand the world, who don't understand how or why to operate in the world (other kids), who are of course going to be attracted to her (because she's so attractive and seemingly kind), that had to be hard.
Jade your story (and Elle's story) has helped me so much. We had similar experiences in how we felt to decide to transition. I also had a rushed "diagnosis" and was quickly on T after my initial appointment. I felt like I was speed running the process, and trying to get that "trans joy" and euphoria that is talked about. I have been on 3 years of T and relate to the numbed emotions feeling. I had a supportive family leading up to it so it wasn't that. It was me being bullied/ hit on by creepy men in my adolesence because of my figure (i internalized this a lot and didn't realize it until recently), and feeling "like a boy" and thinking that was gender dysphoria that led me to transition (i was a masculine lesbian and still identify more so as one). I am researching detransitioning now and have already talked a bit with my mom about it. I've come to the realization I am not a guy, just a tomboyish woman, and it has led me to watch more detransition videos for perspective. So I stopped T. A little thing I've noticed was how much I was neglecting my health as a whole and hyperfocusing on the changes the "trans joy" that Buck talks about. I realized now it's not a healthy place for me to be at such a young age (I am 24) and I have been off T for a little over 1 month. I noticed mood swings really bad at first, but otherwise I feel so good and natural and at peace in my body now that I am off T. It's like my body could catch up and finally take a breath.
So much love sent your way girl. You're beautiful inside and out, the way you carry yourself, with poise and a calm and kind energy. I wish you healing, success, fulfillment, happiness, and love in your future. It's so good to know that you have a supportive family. ❤
Thank you beautiful Jade for sharing your story with us, I wish you all the love and happiness and a family of your own ❤ And thank you Buck for this interview full of compassion and support, both much appreciated ❤️
Your opening/intro to the video is so perfect. Very fitting to your topics. "The number you have dailed...has been changed". A great creative analogy for subjects /conversations like this.
My heart breaks for everything Jade has been through... Not just the "trans" issues, but the bullying in school and assault and the horrible cheating ex situation and the horrible health issues. I am so very sorry that you've experienced these awful circumstances. I agree with Buck 110% about your voice. Though you feel as if your voice isn't "your voice"(Which wholeheartedly matters and is still important) it is still beautiful and VERY feminine. Jade, I hope for the best for you and pray for your future family😉. You will be an amazing Mommy.
Keep getting the word out raising awareness. I'm not trans or never had any issues in this area but I feel very concerned for our youth and what's been happening in the health system etc. I hope more and more people scream this truth from the rooftops because I truly believe most people who think they are trsns are really not like a high percentage. And i honestly don't care if they are or not, i have no issue with true trans people. The issue is how fast this is all happening, the brain washing, the cult like movement happening within the community, the delusions and behaviour patterns (example turning on de-transitioners), the hormones surgeries, irreversible damage to people's health fertility bodies that is ignored and the NEGLECT happening when things do go wrong. It's scary. I have two sons, one a preteen. They have both been exposed to a child nearby who is struggling with this issue currently and it worries me. Parents feel an increased need to protect our children from any teacher therapist doc etc that may indoctrinate them quickly if they do experience confusion or questions. There should not be any rush. But honestly this is all pre-meditated and planned. These are not doctors who dont understand risks. They 100% know what they are doing and still doing it so that does this tell us about people we once trusted so much. RUN
Jade, thank you for sharing your story. It is sooo important for people to hear. Buck-you bring light to this important topic with such determination to make needed change to save our children from harm. Bless you!
I remember having a childhood and a teenage so similar to Jade: I’m so grateful I lived in a time where this lunacy didn’t exist and no one put strange ideas in my mind. I wish Jade the best for her life. Than you Buck for your channel.
Jade, the first thing I noticed about you is your gorgeous eyes. I can’t believe you were bullied for that reason. Thank you for speaking to Buck. It takes courage to tell a detransition story. You are a beautiful young lady and I wish you all the best.
The part about being handed 3 pages sticks out to me for two reasons. 1. Every new trans person who tells their story says the exact same thing so it’s clearly true 2. This is EXACTLY what’s it’s like going on birth control. They tell us the basic side effects (weight gain, less acne, mood swings, no period) and completely leave out anything major. We’re now seeing women struggle with fertility because they hopped on birth control at 16 and stayed on it continuously into their 20s. I had the pill and implanon for 6 years straight because I never thought there would be worse repercussions. I was also told there is no fertility issues caused by use of birth control for prolonged periods. I’m now scared because I’ve been off birth control for almost a year and I still don’t have regular periods.
I also wanted to add - something they don’t tell you about birth control is that it shuts down your libido. And when you go to the doctor concerned about it, they ignore the birth control and blame it on anxiety and depression. I think people don’t realise how important our hormones are to feel as well as we can
I can relate so much to her story! I had an amazing family and home life but my classmates bullied me and destroyed my self esteem. By the time i was in high school I was obese and depressed and I absolutely hated myself. I wanted nothing more than to be someone else and I hated being female and thought that if I were a guy life would be easier. Thankfully this was in the early 2000's and nobody pushed me in the direction of being trans. Adults in my life just let me chop my hair off and wear masculine clothing and let me work myself out. I grew out of this mindset pretty quickly as soon as i got out of high school. I lost weight, learned how to take better care of myself, gained confidence in myself, and realized that i had the power to control where my life was going instead of just letting it happen to me. There are many ways to deal with your trauma and fix your life that don't involve transitioning to the opposite sex or getting permanent surgeries and those things should be considered first.
I just want to say Jade, you are beautiful. I believe that everything you plan for the future will succeed because you are a strong and amazing young woman. I was born with an ovarian cyst, which was removed when I was only 7 days old, along with my left ovary, and I still have cysts on my right ovary. I also have spina bifida, I have to self catheterize myself because I have no pressure in my bladder, I cant feel about 60% of my legs but im walking, and yet I got pregnant without any problems at the age of 21 and 23, I have two beautiful children who are now 9 and almost 7 years old. Last year, my left leg was amputated below the knee because I have problems with non-healing wounds on my feet, and 5 months after the amputation I returned to work and "normal" life.
The saddest thing I saw was a mother who just gave birth, crying while she fed her child with a bottle. She was crying because she couldn’t breast feed. She’d been through transition and had her breasts removed then detransitioned because it was not right for her. So glad Jed didn’t go this far along the road
I was diagnosed with epilepsy when I was twelve years old but the seizures started when I was ten. The teacher yelled at me in front of the class and thought I was making it up when I was having a seizure. My life was extremely stress from them until my mid thirties. Then I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder. It's been quite a trip. When things get weird I tell myself, hang in and go for the ride. It will get better. ❤
Wow. What a beautiful young woman between social media and school, she didn’t stand a chance in being her authentic self. This is so tragic. I don’t agree with Republicans 99.999% of the time but this needs to stop. We all have to agree that this is disgusting and predatory behavior in social media and the schools. none of this existed when I went to school in the 70s and 80s,this is all manufactured😡 not to mention that I just lost all respect for Planned Parenthood. Shame, shame shame on you.!!
I'm a conservative leaning constitutionalist, and I agree as well. This is not a party issue anymore. This is about the damage to children/young adults. which, in turn, messes with the entire family and social structure. This is most definitely predatory behavior dorected towards children for the sake of greed as these people turn into "forever patients". Also, in my belief, to normalize pedophilia. Sexualiing children should be abhorrent to everyone. Only those who are pedophiles are okay with sexualizong children. (**on a aide note but related- a state(I believe it was Idaho) passed a law to punish child rapists more severely, up to capital punishment. A ton of LGBT activists/groups are saying, "This law will be used to target LGBT people, this is genocide towards LGBT people." I'm sorry, but just no, that is not the case. The only way that would make sense is if you are saying that LGBT people are pedophiles and want to rape children.)
I’m center-left and disagree with the GOP almost all the time, but in agreement that this horror needs to stop. There is now a whole industry behind influencing children to transition. The TRAs also spend their time bullying biological women and working towards the erasure of women, first in sports then it will be in other areas.
No offensive however why do Americans put all values in a political box..one of the issues with political parties world wide is mixing economic theory with values often to two are very different
I can’t imagine that you looked in the mirror and saw a monster. I hope you know how beautiful you are, both physically and spiritually. It is criminal what they did to you. If they were doing these things when I was in school, I could have easily been coerced into falling for that ideology. Thank you for telling your story, you will help many people. Education is the key to preventing others from going down the same road. You are brave for sharing your experience.
20:39 oh my god… I think this is probably a perspective I would have shared when I was younger. I also felt alien to my gender, and really got into the type of fan fiction she’s describing. I bet that aspect of the new-gen trans experience is shared by many. She’s just the first person I’ve heard speak about it out loud
Hi Buck. I have a very similar story but I'm from Mexico. Everything she said was so relatable to me Thank youJade and Buck for sharing this amazing intrerview!!
She is so beautiful.And look at her beautiful eyes. Bullies can be so mean. TFS Jades story Buck.You are an awsome human for sharing these stories helping others. I do believe the internet can be very dangerous at times. And with some of these people putting ideas in childrens heads. I hopes Jades finds peace. ☮
Buck Angel, hi. You seem like a really cool person. I love how you handle these precious and very personal topics. This world is blessed to have you. 🎉
Shortly after having our fifth baby, I had my first gallbladder attack. We now have eight children and I've had two heart attacks (I'm old now) and NOTHING hurt as bad as my gallbladder did. The surgeon that removed it says he's seen 350lb linebackers screaming like toddlers because the pain is so bad! Made is lovely and no doubt she'll make a wonderful mother one day.
I gonne write in netherland because i can better expres Als eerste mijn respect voor jullie beide En bedankt voor dit gesprek Nu naar BUCK ik weet iet of jij het weet maar je bent zo ongelofelijk waardevol door deze video te maken. Met al het werk wat jij doet redt jij kinderen,ik ben een moeder ik ben 56 en ik ben in shock wat dokters en regeringen doen met kinderen. Ik ben zo bang voor alle kinderen waar nu tegen gelogen wordt en daardoor hun leven vernield wordt. Ik ben zo dankbaar dat jij er bent. Als er eengod bestaat, dan heeft hij jou als engel gestuurd om kinderen te redden. Dank je van uit de grond van mijn hart ❤
An inflamed gallbladder does hurt really bad. I had an issue with mine last year and had to get it removed. Then about 5 months later had a hysterectomy because I had a very large uterine fibroid. They left my ovaries , left tube and most of my right tube because they didn't want me to go through menopause at 40 years old. I'm sorry this happened to this person and I love your videos because even though I'm not trans it gives me more insight on trans people. I can't even begin to imagine the mental pain associated with all of it. Your channel came up as recommended because I was watching Blair Whites videos , I love her videos as well.
This world needs your papa bear energy, Uncle Buck! To offer compassion, understanding, and support for all LGB people, and those who have struggled with gender dysphoria whether or not medical transition is the proper route for their lives. Keep swangin that big, thick heart of yours 😂❤
Thank you so much for being so brave to share your story. We are going through the same we aren't out the other end as they still don't see the dangers and it's not what they are. We are being as supportive as we can but it's difficult to watch your baby go through something they shouldn't have to. Keep spreading your story ❤❤❤
My heart absolutely broke hearing Jade talk about thinking how she was failing to conceive and blaming herself. I went through those same thoughts for so many years, and it really does break you down and take its toll on you; especially if you're someone who has always known they want children at some point. I'm so glad to hear that as far as she knows, she can still conceive, and I hope she gets that wish of hers when she feels ready again. 🖤
It especially irks me when pretty girls want to transition when they’re not even dysphoric. It’s such a waste of beauty! I’m not criticizing her - I’m faulting gender ideology. I can’t stand how woke culture disdains beauty in general, but that’s another topic.
I had a short phase in my tween-teen years struggling with being an ugly girl. I really didn’t think I was that ugly but everyone around me was prettier and had boyfriends, I was basically invisible. During that phase I thought of transitioning because I thought I might not be a girl if I looked so weird and manly.. Glad I got through those times, my self esteem was nonexistent.
Severe ocd is up there as one of the most destructive conditions and very high in suicide.. :( i feel for all pepple with OCD insanely more than normal folk. It's a very misunderstood disorder and the severity is super extreme
Jade, you are beautiful inside and out. Thank you for having the courage and empathy to share your story. Your heart shines. Buck, thank you a million times for having guests like Jade on your channel. Your heart and compassion for others is so encouraging. "So shines a good deed in a weary world"- Shakespeare
Great interview. I would just like to say, we can’t forget why this happened. Blaming it on big pharma is part of the issue but the trans community and activists must also take responsibility for this social contagion they created. As we know, this was a rarity before social contagion. Doctors had long paths in place- activists shorted or all but destroyed the gatekeeping. It all worked hand in hand and snowballed creating a huge mess quicker than anyone could anticipate. Tho I agree with you this detransitioner is not solely to blame for their decisions they must also admit their part. We don’t know if anyone witnessed their transition and influenced anyone in their friend group or online. 18 is young, but they are an adult. I’m attempting to say this with clarity and respect so I apologize if it doesn’t come across that way 💕
My awesome guest Jade is a 23-year-old detransitioner who was born female, thought she was transgender and transitioned to become a trans man / started testosterone at 18, then decided to detrans (reverse her transition to live as a woman again) at age 20. These detransition stories are so heartbreaking yet so important for the world to hear, so I am very grateful for Jade being brave enough to come onto my show and share her personal story through it. Please leave lots of love for Jade in the comments for me, and give it a thumbs up so her story can be pushed to more people to hear! Love, Buck
There's going to be heaps of these detransiting stories in the future especially in the young people it's completely different with the older generation because they couldn't do it back in the day 60s 70s and 80s we really suffered until recently hopefully 1 day in the future it will be no big deal society goes through so many changes over time
As a parent, I would have lost my 💩. I was bullied as well being a tomboy and better at sports than 99% of the boys.
Jade, ❤❤❤. You are a survivor and a bright light dear!
Yes Jade continue to tell your story, you will save someone.
I’m so glad that you can bring this topic up and that you, and your guests can do it with humor to balance the horror of it. Otherwise it would be intolerable, the sadness would overwhelm me.
Fantastic job Buck and Jade. We need to start realizing that trans isn’t this special phenomenon and children can now be fast tracked like Jazz Jennings…trans is actually an incredibly complex nuanced thing that cannot benefit from this bizarre indoctrination
The fact that Jade asked if the injections would stop her from having kids and being pregnant, should have been a sign to the nurse. Its medical malpractice, and I hope Jade finds peace and with herself. Much love to you Jade.
This is what I was thinking. Would an actual trans man not be supremely uncomfortable about getting pregnant? Why does this not show that she was not meant for this at all?
Nurse cannot diagnose patients.
Yep kids are assholes. Period.
@@ulfrinn5980no but they can refer back to a doctor if they see anything of concern and that statement was. If a patient goes in for an operation to remove their right leg and the doctor starts marking up their left leg a nurse is supposed to speak up. It's not always listened to but they have the ability and knowledge to do it
@@ulfrinn5980nurses should have awareness
I studied Neuroscience. The BRAIN does not finish developing until age 25 or later. So for this SERIOUS and IRREVERSIBLE procedure, no one should start this till 25 minimum. SO it is more about the brain. And this is why many scientists want a younger person to have lower charges for crimes committed under age 25. Thank you Jade for sharing. You are a wise, balanced and beautiful soul, inside and out. YOU shine Jade. You made a difference and what you say matters greatly. Best to you.
there is a massive mental health crisis right now, exacerbated by the pandemic and several other factors that I believe have unleashed a kraken on the culture-wars.
yeah and give a doctor a higher charge the younger the patient! 😬😡😈
Its so true too.i wasn't able to calculate consequences until i was like 27.
I 100% agree that people should not be considered adults until age 21. You have to be 21 to drink/smoke yet18 to vote/join the military. I feel as tho children are being taken advantage of, using these standards. As well as chikdren being blamed for making so called "adult decisions" when they do not understand the consequences, they do not even understand that those are "adult choices" on most levels. I am almost 36, and I didn't even start to feel like an adult until 30. There is a reason that families lived together(intergenerational living) after getting married/having children. Guidance was still needed and older generations had wisdom to share/grandchildren benefited from having actual adults in the home. Unfortunately our bodies develop to adults between 13 and 18 but our brains require until at least 25. Biological speaking, we are pressed to have children while we are still children. So the cycle continues and not that the world has become so small from being interconnected, these consequences have become compounded.
Interesting. Yet no one will bat an eye when a girl below age of 25 gets married and/or has children. The male partner is usually older. Much younger girls get sucked into relationships and motherhood all the time. Where is the outrage? Maybe because traditionally it is acceptable? There is nothing more irreversable than having a child.
This is concerning, if they can talk someone as pretty as you into thinking you are not pretty and should change anything they could talk anyone into it!
Exactly m she has model looks.
It doesn't matter how people look to bullies. They always find something.
That's why they target young children because most have a problem with themselves during puberty.
And children are easy to convince of something that isn't good for them.
@@Fuzz82most of the Goofy looking young kids look fantastic later on when they've grown up a bit.
There are normally only a few real bullies and the other kids do it with them because they don't want to be that target either. that still doesn't make it right though.
@@Fuzz82 red hear, freckels, crossed eyes, glasses, etc. aren't interesting anymore because that's easy to change nowadays!
I believe her about the teacher bullying her for sure. I remember when I was 8, I got adopted and had to do a name change in the middle of the school year, and for whatever reason, the teacher absolutely hated me. It started out with her telling me that my name isn't my adopted name, I'm doing it for attention, and then she would criticise me for small things like my handwriting, if my uniform had a wrinkle, if my nails happened to be a bit dirty after recess, if I didn't pronounce an English word exactly as she did even though I'd hear a native speaker hear something else...absolutely anything, she would nitpick. It didn't help that I was 2 years younger than everyone else in the class because I went to school earlier. Some adults are just miserable. I feel so bad for her, especially having OCD at a young age and having teachers pick on her for it. I developed OCD in my teens and it took at least a year and a half to get it under control. To this day (I'm 31) I still have some symptoms but through therapy I've learned strategies to keep myself from doing rituals.
EDIT: Just got to the part with the LGBT therapist. Holy cannoli, that sounds predatory as hell. I feel bad for today's kids that are struggling with gender identity, knowing therapists like her exists. It makes me think actual skillful therapists are rare.
I also got bullied by kids AND teachers. It was horrible. The teachers were desperate to be popular with the kids, so they picked on a few of us and made fun of us all the time. It was me, the "nerd" of the class, and a poor girl with severe learning disabilities who would cry very easily. They laughed at her for crying, and made the entire class laugh about it. To me, school was absolute hell and home was like an oasis of peace.
@@lyraria . Sorry for your pain and suffering as a child. How are you doing today, and do you find it difficult to trust people?? Blessings to you always.
Similar experience, and she turned the other way when people with tease me about my cleft lip that was then,more visible before surgery. They are indeed rare. I'm also an introvert, and avoidant. Don't like attention on me like a microscope and feel too vulnerable being exposed, or compelled to minimized deranged aspects. I'm 38 and have been in and out since age 5. It has not impressed. Kinda corny, actually. I don't understand why people are so gung-ho about it. I think a lot of people just like talking about themselves tbh.
It's been my experience that most teachers are just downright awful. I had 2 or 3 good teachers and a couple truly terrible teachers. Most just didn't care. My high-school counselors were patheticly awful too
I hope you are doing okay now!! I related to your comment and have also been through a lot between being adopted and struggling socially. People can be horrible to those who appear or act a little "different." In my experience, I wasn't bullied so much as neglected? Like not invited to things, didn't really have friends etc. My self esteem is better than it was but I think for superficial reasons like I finally was pretty enough for guys to want me in my 20's and my social skills improved.
TW- adoption + Child neglect discussion
I also was adopted- 18 months/year and a half from eastern Europe to the USA. I was neglected and malnourished in the orphanage wnich was understaffed. Locals were very poor and no one had enough food. My birth mom drank while pregnant with me and I eventually became an alcoholic/addict too. People don't realize that even babies who get adopted right away into the best of families have that trauma of being separated from the mother. People look at adoption as this beautiful story where this family saved this poor child from impoverished countries or shitty foster cares. They tell us we "should be grateful" for getting adopted. Without realizing the trauma we usually have from the separation and people also don't realize that kids can get adopred into abusive homes! 😕
While I am grateful I got adopted into a generally good situation, I still have a lot of unprocessed trauma from events I don't even remember. People discount my trauma bc I didn't remember it (includinf "professionals" at a trauma clinic I went to.) But my subconscious unfortunately does and out of all the professionals I've seen, my social worker has been the only one who really understands me. Therapists aren't usually trained for adoptees, even neglect doesn't get enough attention in the medical field vs. Other kinds of mistreatment.
Idkl if you have C-PTSD/PTSD like I do, I just noticed we have been thru similar things. I'm 31 and finally have adequate supports so I'm no longer just in survival mode. I finally feel at a place where I can address my trauma and heal. Wishing you the best and that you have the love and support you need. ❤️
I hope Jade knows that she is incredibly beautiful and sometimes kids bully people they’re jealous of.
That's spot on.
Tall poppy syndrome is real
Yes and they can’t articulate some difference as children so they go with the most powerful insult they can think of. ugly is a big one for girls if love is made for beauty queens
Thank you for this- she reminds me of my daughter- growing up she was so girly girl - my daughter hit puberty at 9 and by the time she was in 5th grade she was very very developed. She suffered depression from the bullying and OCD. When the pandemic hit, she hit us with her being trans…… I would soon find out months later that her “best friend” was the worst of the bullies. I’m trying to be supportive- but I know in my bones she’s not trans. Everyday my heartbreaks - I just hope she realizes this is not a good path before it’s too late. She knows how I feel about all of this, and we have had a few explosive fights because of this. I was raised in the “old school LGBT” community- and it all feels like such a slap in the face with what’s going on now. These interviews give me some hope. Thank You
my heart goes out to you. it must be a parent's worst fear - that your kid will do irreversible harm to themselves and you cannot stop it. my mother put that fear into me about getting pregnant, like that was irreversible harm
wish you a lot of strength and love! 💪💝⚘️
Awful- so sorry. It's like a gravy-train of promotion, acceptance and reinforcement. You can't fight that as a parent. This is why it's so sad. X
I'd try seeing a professional to see if she indeed has dysphoria.
From what you've said it's very possible she might have body dysmorphia, in which victims of bullying or just being unhappy with their bodies will think they are trans, because they're unhappy in their body.
But it's a different thing.
Prayers to you. You love your daughter 😢
Hi dear friend Buck. Thank you for being friend to all. I respect. I'm Eskimo and i appreciate your kindness
Thank you friend!
I follow Jade on X. She is pretty hard on herself sometimes, and as a mom of a daughter close to her age, it breaks my heart. Both of my kids are diagnosed with OCD, so I know how difficult it can be dealing with intrusive thoughts and obsessions. Jade is absolutely beautiful❤️
She is very hard on herself…it was becoming rather saddening to watch so I had to unfollow her. 💔 Not out of dislike or anything, just need to be more careful about the vibe on my X feeds lately (as I am exactly the same with using my X account to tweet out every self loathing train of thought that I have like it’s a diary)… I wish her well because she absolutely deserves to think more highly of herself.
Yeah I have noticed that, I feel really bad for her
I feel the fact she was asking about later getting pregnant would be a red flag to not being trans and something else. A trans man doesn’t want to do the most womanly thing ever, have you said that Buck?
Yes. But I think it should be noted some trans people still want to save their genetic material in order to have a child maybe through a surrogate later.
23. Oh my god. An ACTUAL child.
Buck I love the empathy and kindness you have when talking to these De-Transitioners. No blame or anger at them, just love and kindness. You are such a blessing to this world.
Thank you so much friend and thanks for watching ❤
@amsterdamethe point being that she would have HAD to be a MINOR when this all took place-fill in the damn blank with context clues or are you F’ing dumb or stupid or what
@amsterdameshe was a minor when she transitioned IF YOU WATCHED THE INTERVIEW, so what are you even talking about? Also, the brain doesn’t finish development until around 25 so yes in terms of psychology she absolutely is a kid.
@@Kryssi13obviously, they're responding to the OP's comment of "23 OMG an actual child". Your brain doesn't function in a childlike state until your 25th birthday, you're pretty well finished cooking by 23.
When you're born in the 60s and 70s to us this girl is basically a child. In fact my children are her age. It's not creepy AT ALL. When you are in your 50s and 60s you will understand..@amsterdame
The clinics prey on vulnerable people, all detransitioners are victims and should not blame themselves or be blamed
@@jayaCatLvr-ys5ix why not? I think it depends but I'd say they are victims if they were manipulated into transitioning or were lied to by doctors about the hormones, puberty blockers or surgery. Someone can't consent to treatment like this if they're not properly informed and there are too many cases where people regret transitioning or get severe side effects from the hormones that wee common risks and they simply were not informed! There was someone who had a heart condition and informed their doctor about it before transitioning. Apparently the surgery was horrible for people with his condition and the doctor didn't say anything.
Also, many people feel that kids cannot properly consent to these treatments. "Affirmative' therapists push them to transition and doctors prescribe them pills and surgeons do the surgeries. Puberty blockers especially can have drastic side effects and are given to kids. The kids/their parents are not properly informed about the risks.
In any of these cases, the doctors will sometimes "ghost" the patient once they start complaining about the side effects and especially if they say things like "You should have informed us qboit the risks with this medication/hormones/surgery."
I feel like we are going to start seeing more and more lawyers taking on clients who were lied to or otherwise experienced medical malpractice!
Unfortunately, when money is involved, doctors might feel motivated to not tell the truth. We saw this with Oxycontin in the US, for example. Unfortunately, there are people making loads of money besides the scenes and medical provides like thr doctors hoping to get a cut! Patient safety and wellness comes second to money. Hopefully this is not the case with every doctor, some have a conscience and will do tbeir best to tell patients about all the known risks with these treatments.
And besides the trans stuff, there are other medical conditions where even a minor may need something like Lupron. And even then, the doctor should inform them of the treatment, side effects and alternative options, if possible. They're handing some of these meds out like candy when they're heavy shit and can devastate a patient. When they could informed them of other options like fry just social transitioning for a while and see how you feel. If the kid is trans, that alone could help them feel better and give them time to learn about further treatment options. It's much easier to come back from social transitioning if you regret it.
Teacher bullying, unfortunately, is not super uncommon. I have severe dyslexia to the point that I sometimes will write entire sentences backwards and not even notice because my effed up brain thinks it looks right, and I had a teacher in middle school that would announce it to the class every time I did that or flipped letters around by saying "make sure to check for mistakes. You don't want to be illiterate like (anon)" and it encouraged some kids to bully me to the point I got pulled out and was homeschooled for a while. I feel so bad for Jade, but what an amazing young lady she is.
I was bullied by my second grade teacher all year when I was sick with a serious undiagnosed illness that could’ve killed me. Not only did she refuse to believe me when I was crying in pain, she gaslit me into thinking I was making it up and screamed at me in front of the class and made an example out of me. And hid her behavior from the other teachers and principal- acted completely different when another authority was in earshot. Teacher can lust for blood and indulge their sadism by hurting children very easily. But just like priests, the world venerates them as some decent force for good and other adults have a hard time believing they could be so fuɔ>|’d up.
Geezus. These accounts are so disturbing. I was recently speaking to someone who had to switch their son’s school because of cyber bullying that teachers and administrators co-signed on. Mind blowing that adults would act this way
This happened to me in grade 2. She would even call me up to read out my mistakes to the class so they could laugh at me. I became so quiet and withdrawn, this teacher used to make me take my snow suit on and off all recess while the kids went outside, made me face the corner while the kids were doing times tables and then hit me with a ruler on my hands when i asked how to do what she just taught everyone else. One bad teacher can do some lasting damage. Im still terrified of anyone reading anything ive hand written
I’m exactly the same, extreme dyslexia to the point that I couldn’t read or write at all until 11. I had given up completely until I switched schools because my teachers before that literally did not believe in dyslexia and just said I was stupid or not listening - to my face and in front of my entire class. This wasn’t even that long ago, it was the 1990s. When I switched schools and went into a different learning environment everything changed completely. I didn’t even need to tell anyone that I had dyslexia because I was doing so well and able to mask it. The bullying from the teachers in my first school left its mark however, especially because it got so bad that even the parents of my friends began to tell their kids to not associate with me because they thought I was a bad influence. The parents of one friend in particular took it further, but that is another story. At one point I thought it was only me that got targeted by adults as a child and I fully believed that I deserved it. As I got older however and discovered the internet, I found hundreds of other stories just like mine. Adults picking on children is unfortunately quite common and usually it happens to the kids who are already vulnerable for some reason.
Reading your comment and several others I realize how so many of us were tormented in school by the adults who were responsible for actually keeping us safe. I remember a teacher calling me stupid and using me as an example for that… Im an immigrant so at age 6 I was barely understanding English but I wasn’t fluent. It was hell for me, kids went along with the teacher and I cried every morning hoping my parents wouldnt send me to school.
I really hope parents read all of these stories and pay much more attention to what situation their kids might be dealing with.
I became very insecure and self conscious because of the bullying. At now age 32 im finally happy and embracing myself fully, psychologically, emotionally, physically… my parents had no idea of course, they just wanted me to learn.. didnt help they werent fully fluent then either.
School administrators are pushing teachers to follow this ideology in the name of compassion. I’m a teacher who pushed back and told them I would not lie to parents.
One of my students (male) 10th grader was “girl” all year, and by his 11th grade year, he had socially transitioned back male and told me “I don’t know what I was thinking.” He dated other males as a “girl” and realized he is gay and didn’t need to transition to female. He seemed so much happier - you could see it in his face.
Whattt? What dating are you talking about at the age of 10 or 11??? That's typical for one's development to stay more with the same gender at the age...I also teach at school and watch kids . They are so childish yet then. But I am not from your country luckily. When all this absurdity comes to my state, hopefully I'll be retired.
@@agatha3930 a 10th grader is usually about 15-16 yrs old
What a sweet young lady Jade is. Her parents trusted her with the internet, without realizing that the internet couldn’t be trusted with her.
My heart goes out to kids who are shy and lonely, because I was that kid too.
I just want to say how much I appreciate you Buck Angel, for not only giving detransitioners a platform, but also for just being a wonderful person and showing the world how actual trans people behave and live their lives. As my user name indicates I am recovering from liberalism, although I never thought that when I signed up to be a Democrat over 30 years ago, this is where it would be. It makes me sick to see how these bullies go around talking about loving and accepting everyone, yet if you say anything, they don’t agree with, they act like the monsters they are.
As a straight 49 year old woman I’d gladly accept you as my “transpa”! I found your channel through Blair white and I just wanna say keep up the good work!
Also, all the G.I. symptoms that she is experiencing are caused by removing the gallbladder, which is why you should never have your gallbladder removed unless it’s absolutely necessary but unfortunately they won’t tell you that.
I am 26. If I was just a few years younger this would have been me. I was easily influenced, shy, bullied at a young age, the “emo” kid, and was confused about my sexuality. Luckily when I was in school none of this “trans trend” was a thing. Trans people I did know were and are actually trans.
Same, except I'm 31. I was "emo/goth/scene/alternative", and very vulnerable dealing with abuse, and was being diagnosed with all kinds of things based on my behavior (which was a response to ongoing hell at home), heavily medicated, and very easily influenced. I'd have been a prime target. Scary.
Same. Im a 31 year old lesbian who dropped out of hs for anxirty and depression at grqde 10. I even told my counselor i might be trana when i was 16. She said, "i dont think so" and i never thought about it again.
@@juliana.x0x0oh a fellow 31! We just bypassed the extreme toxicity of now. Thank God for us! Although teens were kinda homiphobic back then still. "ew she probably has a crush on me cuz she's gay" and being ditched, and alao "wow youre gay ?!?" like it's a rare pokemon and id date any straight girl that tried to use me to make themself more interesting. Still better off than todays bull.
@@raaaaaaarr hello fellow 31!❤️
Yeah, I think there's ALWAYS going to be kids making fun of other kids for being different than "mainstream", yknow? That's just low hanging fruit that's easy to pick on someone for. Except for now, because now it's "trendy" to be trans or gay.
In my alternative group of friends there was a lot of bi-curious experimentation going on, almost like an in-group fad (or maybe a way to get some attention while rebelling 😂)
I had a rough time in school, because I had it rough at home, but I would NEVER wish to have a do-over in the current system. Praying it all blows over and a less damaging trend becomes popular before my 5 yo gets into middle/high school!!!
I feel the same except I’m 32. I experimented with my sexuality then but that’s a different thing, I wasn’t taking irreversible hormones or having surgeries.
I’m actually perfectly fine with young people socially transitioning, it’s reversible.
Buck, I'm a nurse (admittedly not in the area of gender medicine) & I didn't know about the issue of atrophy (to that degree) on long term testosterone; certainly not beyond the point of causing more than mild symptoms, let alone to the point of causing sepsis! That's massive, & extremely concerning. I speak to a lot of patients on testosterone as a transgender medicine (as opposed for another reason), & I will certainly be mindful of this potential if they present with concerning symptoms. Thank-you for all you do in these crazy, crazy times. Thank-you too Jade, it's so brave of you to share your story. I'm so sorry for what you went through. It appalls me how that you (& so many others, by the sounds) were not given the information you needed to give informed consent. I wish you well, & hope those involved are held to account one day.
My husband was bullied by teachers. He was on the spectrum my heart breaks when he shares his
experiences! Wish I could have been there for him!
I’m from Scotland and was born in 76 and there was loads of guys with rainbow hair wore make up and had nappies pins the their ears and nose and many other orifices they were called punk rockers…children played in the dirt wearing their mas old high heels no matter the gender🤣🤣🤣 and their was no problems whatsoever….whats going on in the world today is crazy and I think there’s some sort of agenda going on or maybe to stop so many childbirths but it’s definitely something we are not privy to but in a few years we will click n go that’s what it was all about Ty for your content 🤗🤗🫶🏽🫶🏽
stopping childbirth is definitely not part of the agenda. otherwise why is the government trying to ban abortions and contraception? Trust me they still want babies being pumped out and will take away women’s bodily autonomy to keep it that way.
This is by far one of your best guests. I think this video is going to help a lot of young women struggling with gender identity issues. The fact that people would pick on her for detransitioning just proves how toxic they are.
I struggled with body dysphoria growing up caused by childhood SA and an abusive household. I never felt right in my body. I socially transitioned in high school up until I was about 20. I never medically transitioned, thank the lord, but I never felt right claiming to be a detrans since I was never medicalized. I did feel a lot of shame though. Never knew there was a word for what I experienced, desisting. Makes a lot of sense. I’m 23 now and have worked through a lot of my trauma, and love being who I am. I’m expecting my first baby in September and I’m forever grateful that I don’t live with what true transsexuals experience, it seems like a very hard mental illness to live with. Much love Buck, and thank you for sharing your story Jade! You are so beautiful and I hope you get your prince ❤️🩹
Please tell Jade that interview helped my heart. I have a teenage daughter who has socially transitioned and I am terrified every day for her. Her back story is almost identical to Jade's. I need prayers. Thank you Buck for doing what you do. ❤️
I'm praying to Lord Jesus to protect your child and for peace and comfort for the entire family.
Jade, I can TOTALLY attest to the fact that teachers can be bullies sometimes. Some of mine did it to me for various reasons, to include mental health, and other times straight up victim blaming because I had the nerve to "tattle" about the way I was being treated.
Not having a kid at 21ish was probably a blessing in disguise.
Really sad though. The adults FAILED her. It's even sadder knowing that this is probably happening RIIGHT NOW to even more children than we can imagine.
I'd remove "probably". It is happening right now.
I just wanna give her a hug. I'm not much older than her. I was a girly kid but dressed boyish a lot and it scares me that somebody could have put such an idea in my head. I was bullied so bad. I'm so grateful that I found the friend group that i did. We just embraced being weirdos but all it takes is being taken in by the wrong group
This is so touching. Jade has lovely energy. I wish I could go back in time and hug her as a kid 🧡🧡
💙💙💙
I love the fact that your word is getting out there!!! Thank you to all the detransitioners who realize that they've been sold a lie and are willing to tell others about it. Get the TRUTH out there!
It's crazy to me how much things have changed from when I was a teenager and even from when I started transitioning 10 years ago. I knew how I felt growing up, but didn't have words to describe it...and I honestly think that's a good thing. I didn't have people online trying to label me as trans because of how I felt or anyone in the schools making me to consider that I'm trans. I didn't even know what transsexual was until I was 18 and even then I struggled with it, because I was still maturing and I didn't fully understand myself yet (not until I was 25 when I actually started). Jade's story is so important. I feel like these detransitioning stories don't fit the narrative of the modern trans movement and so we just don't hear them. Her story is heartbreaking as someone who is transsexual. The modern mindset about all of this is just so different now and honestly just completely out of hand...kids being allowed and even encouraged to transition before they even really understand themselves, before our brains are fully developed. It's irresponsible and I feel like any of us who dare to question the current status quo get labeled as bigots. I'm rambling, I know, but this video has been really meaningful to me and I felt like I needed to share that it did. Thank you Jade for sharing your story and thank you Buck for giving her this platform to share her story. This is so important right now.
I have a family member who transitioned around 23-24 years old and he did it in a very educated way. Before he started his transition he took the time to, for lack of a better words, self reflect, talk to the proper people including family as well as professionals. He doesn't go around telling everyone he is a trans-man. He doesn't fly a trans flag or a rainbow flag anywhere in his home. He doesn't get involved in gay pride, gay pride month, any of the gay pride parades, ect. He doesn't talk about it and doesn't care to put his business all over the city or internet. All he wants to do is what he calls "pass". He lives a normal life without any extra drama. So many more just want attention and there are few who transitioning are serious and take it seriously.
Yes that’s how you can tell who the real trans people are. The first trans person I met was when I was in highschool. She just appeared as a butch lesbian to me. Was so chill and didn’t bother about pronouns or anything. She ended up transitioning right after graduation and the most I would see is him now looking back on photos and being proud of building the person he always wanted to be. He never made it his entire personality like these “trenders” do these days. He’s a normal guy to anyone who meets him
@@doid4354 The trans persons we are speaking of are not with "the community" and my person had made it plain that he thinks they are loosing their minds wanting to force people to accept them. He said something that never occurred to me and that was "The reason they push it so hard is not because the want acceptance from others but from themselves" and it made total sense. Those who are trans and just want to "pass" and are not involved in the alphabet community, have made it so plain to me that they are ashamed of those who parade around half dressed in front of kids, those who do "drag queen day" at school, the teachers who go behind the parents to encourage and/or help kids to transition and so forth and so on. I could go on for days. I just saw where a teacher was fired because she refused to put a litter box in her classroom to accommodate a child who identifies as a fkn cat!! What is our world coming to? Do you and don't push it on me and I'll have the same respect for you, bottom line!!
Edit: misspelling
Jade is such a dear young lady, I'm so pleased she is trying to come out of the nightmare that she was led into. Bless her, bless you Buck for bringing this lovely person on your show to tell her story 🤗
Jade,
Im a 23 year old woman. I want to say you are beautiful and I believe you can achieve all of your dreams, especially of being a mother. I am so sorry that you went through what you did. We're the same age, I also went through bullying and body issues and I feel so sad that you didn't find the proper support you needed. You needed a real friend and someone to hype you up and make you feel comfortable in your own skin. Never feel insecure about your voice - it is beautiful (its similar range of my voice, i have a lower tone for a woman) nor anything else about your body. You are on the right track, everything will be okay. Be strong through the medical issues the best you can. My brother is FTM and I feel an affinity toward your story, you are doing amazing. Sorry for the ramble, but I hope you can see this and know we support you and think you're awesome.
I was bullied by teachers and bus drivers for my ADHD and appearance. People are awful
Some** there's good ppl out there ❤ sorry this happened to you. Hugs!!!
Buck Angel is such an empathetic person. Also not afraid to say their views that may go against the way LGBT should think.
So young and so much life experience. She is wise beyond her years. Prayers to her and her future ❤ She's got this!
Thanks for speaking up Jade,
It's very important what you're doing.
You too Buck.🙏🏻 Greetings from Germany
I can’t help thinking (also based on at least 2 or more interviews I’ve seen) that the internet has played a huge role in influencing children to doubt their sex. This uncertainty, of feeling not 100 % one or the other is a normal thing for young kids and young adults (hormones are going crazy at this time too). I felt it too, growing up during the 80’s, a little boyish sometimes, which I now think is normal.
Jade you're BEAUTIFUL and you will be a great mother and partner someday. You got this!
This is so disturbing, it's like a cult. So many of these kids, especially girls, clearly have Body Dysmorphia, NOT Dysphoria. Many of them have also suffered SA, which adds to the discomfort about their bodies, especially when puberty happens. I was bullied heavily, and developed Body Dysmorphia - at one stage, I thought if I was a boy, I'd be happier, because there would be less physical judgement. I shudder to think of young people, struggling with Dysmorphia, are not getting the help they need, and, instead, are being herded into decisions that will vastly affect their future. This terrible rhetoric that "Trans kids will k*ll themselves without access to the drugs they need!" is the other way around, forcing children to damage their bodies beyond salvage when they clearly have self-image problems is one of the most horrifically negligent, and dangerous things we are allowing to happen.
Jade - you are a beautiful young woman, and I am so happy you are here and you are on the track to happiness
My granddaughter went through early puberty amd had no friends except on the internet
Her story is so much like yours. She is on testosterone now for 2 years and i have not seen her in that time since she moved out of state. I am heartbroken that she made this change , but i still love her.
I'm a huge Blaire White fan.. I was sexually abused by my father and neighbor when I was 9 years old. I also had mental health issues which I didn't realize ,but my mother seen something in me . She got me help when I was 12 . I was a emotional train wreck, wishing to be hit by a train . 7 mental health hospital's and countless medications. I'm now off a lot of meds and doing much better. I still have triggers and bad days , but I'm thankful to have made it this long ..Jade is beautiful and I wish her all the best in life . Thank you Buck for your help and support for other's.
Are you a Blaire White fan because you see his experience in you?
@@MHS-ql7eeher* come on, she’s clearly made the effort.
You are aware that Blair White still has his D*ck right!? Just cause he has boobs and makeup doesnt make him a full M2F! I can see why the commenter said he instead if she.
@@MHS-ql7ee .No.. I don't know all of Blaire White history. She shared about the dating part of her life . But this is much deeper and my story about mental health, sexual abuse and mental health problems pushing meds on people that they don't even know how they work . It's been 49 years for me , but I'm scared for those being harmed by pedophiles and drugs . Sexual abusers know how to groom their prey , they find a weakness and work their sickness into your life . Thank you for asking, and I hope this helped .
If the born women today could be as respectful and beautiful as Blaire White what a difference the world would be . These born women today are a complete mess. Buck and Blaire hold themselves to a much higher standard in life . I respect Buck as a good Man ,and Blaire White as a beautiful woman.
OMG the first part I’m already drawn instantly I had the same experience in elementary with teachers that did the same thing except I had ADD. Never did anything to hurt anyone but it just annoyed them which is not great for a teacher to display negative emotions regarding how a student functions because it really does stick for a long time. Also had great parents but the world around me was the worst part.
Such a powerful message, thank you for sharing your story! This was like watching a biography on my daughter who is heading down the same path from identical adolescent challenges. I'm finally waking up to the fact that the harder I push, the stronger her resolve to continue. Thank you for your wisdom, insight and courage adding a much-needed layer of common sense to all this insanity.
I work with troubled teens and everything this person has said from early on set puberty, the social anxiety and OCD until recently would manifest its self most often in eating disorders and self harm. Therapy is so important. Vulnerable young people are being swept away in what feels like a machine. It breaks my heart.😢
I can’t believe a therapist told her she hasn’t moved on. This poor girl has urinary incontinence and has to shave every day, that’s debilitating in itself without any pressure from a therapist
She definitely doesn’t sound male! I’m just listening to this without watching. I would never have thought she was a male or sounded like it.
She is a woman. She transitioned to male and then back.
Probably because she isn't male.
Sending you so both so much love. I'm so sorry this happened to you Jade. Thank you for sharing your story. I'm a parent of young kiddos and I've always felt close and connected to the lgbt community until 2021, because the energy changed so fast. It's so hard to navigate this world right now, and I feel so blessed to have found your channel Buck, and I so appreciate you bringing Jade on this episode.
Buck, you should create a new series along the lines of "To Catch a Predator," where you pretend to be a teen and investigate adults online encouraging KIDS to transition to "fix all of their issues." It would be so interesting to see first hand what kinds of things they are telling these kids. Love your content, thank you for all that you do!
She is beautiful! I hope she is happy with herself and is able to live the rest of her long life in happiness.
She is incredibly pretty.
I can imagine that for someone like her, with social anxiety, not feeling comfortable in so many ways, and then on top of that interacting with people who don't understand the world, who don't understand how or why to operate in the world (other kids), who are of course going to be attracted to her (because she's so attractive and seemingly kind), that had to be hard.
Pretty people often get bullied and feel insecure. It’s something not talked about a lot. But it happens to most people.
You are such a strong woman. Stay strong. Millions of people when they hear your story will support you.
Jade your story (and Elle's story) has helped me so much. We had similar experiences in how we felt to decide to transition. I also had a rushed "diagnosis" and was quickly on T after my initial appointment. I felt like I was speed running the process, and trying to get that "trans joy" and euphoria that is talked about. I have been on 3 years of T and relate to the numbed emotions feeling. I had a supportive family leading up to it so it wasn't that. It was me being bullied/ hit on by creepy men in my adolesence because of my figure (i internalized this a lot and didn't realize it until recently), and feeling "like a boy" and thinking that was gender dysphoria that led me to transition (i was a masculine lesbian and still identify more so as one). I am researching detransitioning now and have already talked a bit with my mom about it. I've come to the realization I am not a guy, just a tomboyish woman, and it has led me to watch more detransition videos for perspective. So I stopped T. A little thing I've noticed was how much I was neglecting my health as a whole and hyperfocusing on the changes the "trans joy" that Buck talks about. I realized now it's not a healthy place for me to be at such a young age (I am 24) and I have been off T for a little over 1 month. I noticed mood swings really bad at first, but otherwise I feel so good and natural and at peace in my body now that I am off T. It's like my body could catch up and finally take a breath.
So much love sent your way girl. You're beautiful inside and out, the way you carry yourself, with poise and a calm and kind energy.
I wish you healing, success, fulfillment, happiness, and love in your future. It's so good to know that you have a supportive family. ❤
"I got a buddy" is the way drug dealers speak about other people they work with so they can keep their names hidden from the law. This is the same.
Jade, you are a treasure to this world. Thank you for sharing your story. You are saving lives by being open and honest about your journey. ♥️
Thank you Jade for sharing your story and speaking out. Its so important for young people to hear you!
Thank you Tranpa! Great content as per usual. ❤❤❤
Trampa I love it
Thank you, Jade, for sharing your story. Your voice is important and needs to be heard.
Thank you beautiful Jade for sharing your story with us, I wish you all the love and happiness and a family of your own ❤
And thank you Buck for this interview full of compassion and support, both much appreciated ❤️
We all seek acceptance- my heart is so broken! ❤ Please take care of yourself, Jade my prayer is that you finally accept yourself! Love ya!
Your opening/intro to the video is so perfect. Very fitting to your topics. "The number you have dailed...has been changed". A great creative analogy for subjects /conversations like this.
My heart breaks for everything Jade has been through... Not just the "trans" issues, but the bullying in school and assault and the horrible cheating ex situation and the horrible health issues. I am so very sorry that you've experienced these awful circumstances. I agree with Buck 110% about your voice. Though you feel as if your voice isn't "your voice"(Which wholeheartedly matters and is still important) it is still beautiful and VERY feminine. Jade, I hope for the best for you and pray for your future family😉. You will be an amazing Mommy.
Aww Thank you so much🥰💗This means a lot
Keep getting the word out raising awareness. I'm not trans or never had any issues in this area but I feel very concerned for our youth and what's been happening in the health system etc. I hope more and more people scream this truth from the rooftops because I truly believe most people who think they are trsns are really not like a high percentage. And i honestly don't care if they are or not, i have no issue with true trans people. The issue is how fast this is all happening, the brain washing, the cult like movement happening within the community, the delusions and behaviour patterns (example turning on de-transitioners), the hormones surgeries, irreversible damage to people's health fertility bodies that is ignored and the NEGLECT happening when things do go wrong. It's scary. I have two sons, one a preteen. They have both been exposed to a child nearby who is struggling with this issue currently and it worries me. Parents feel an increased need to protect our children from any teacher therapist doc etc that may indoctrinate them quickly if they do experience confusion or questions. There should not be any rush. But honestly this is all pre-meditated and planned. These are not doctors who dont understand risks. They 100% know what they are doing and still doing it so that does this tell us about people we once trusted so much. RUN
Jade, thank you for sharing your story. It is sooo important for people to hear. Buck-you bring light to this important topic with such determination to make needed change to save our children from harm. Bless you!
I remember having a childhood and a teenage so similar to Jade: I’m so grateful I lived in a time where this lunacy didn’t exist and no one put strange ideas in my mind. I wish Jade the best for her life. Than you Buck for your channel.
You can tell she’s such a beautiful human inside out.
Yes
Nice people are often the victim of multiple things. 😞
Jade, the first thing I noticed about you is your gorgeous eyes. I can’t believe you were bullied for that reason. Thank you for speaking to Buck. It takes courage to tell a detransition story. You are a beautiful young lady and I wish you all the best.
The part about being handed 3 pages sticks out to me for two reasons.
1. Every new trans person who tells their story says the exact same thing so it’s clearly true
2. This is EXACTLY what’s it’s like going on birth control. They tell us the basic side effects (weight gain, less acne, mood swings, no period) and completely leave out anything major. We’re now seeing women struggle with fertility because they hopped on birth control at 16 and stayed on it continuously into their 20s.
I had the pill and implanon for 6 years straight because I never thought there would be worse repercussions.
I was also told there is no fertility issues caused by use of birth control for prolonged periods. I’m now scared because I’ve been off birth control for almost a year and I still don’t have regular periods.
I also wanted to add - something they don’t tell you about birth control is that it shuts down your libido. And when you go to the doctor concerned about it, they ignore the birth control and blame it on anxiety and depression.
I think people don’t realise how important our hormones are to feel as well as we can
I can relate so much to her story! I had an amazing family and home life but my classmates bullied me and destroyed my self esteem. By the time i was in high school I was obese and depressed and I absolutely hated myself. I wanted nothing more than to be someone else and I hated being female and thought that if I were a guy life would be easier. Thankfully this was in the early 2000's and nobody pushed me in the direction of being trans. Adults in my life just let me chop my hair off and wear masculine clothing and let me work myself out. I grew out of this mindset pretty quickly as soon as i got out of high school. I lost weight, learned how to take better care of myself, gained confidence in myself, and realized that i had the power to control where my life was going instead of just letting it happen to me. There are many ways to deal with your trauma and fix your life that don't involve transitioning to the opposite sex or getting permanent surgeries and those things should be considered first.
I just want to say Jade, you are beautiful. I believe that everything you plan for the future will succeed because you are a strong and amazing young woman. I was born with an ovarian cyst, which was removed when I was only 7 days old, along with my left ovary, and I still have cysts on my right ovary. I also have spina bifida, I have to self catheterize myself because I have no pressure in my bladder, I cant feel about 60% of my legs but im walking, and yet I got pregnant without any problems at the age of 21 and 23, I have two beautiful children who are now 9 and almost 7 years old. Last year, my left leg was amputated below the knee because I have problems with non-healing wounds on my feet, and 5 months after the amputation I returned to work and "normal" life.
The saddest thing I saw was a mother who just gave birth, crying while she fed her child with a bottle. She was crying because she couldn’t breast feed. She’d been through transition and had her breasts removed then detransitioned because it was not right for her. So glad Jed didn’t go this far along the road
I was diagnosed with epilepsy when I was twelve years old but the seizures started when I was ten. The teacher yelled at me in front of the class and thought I was making it up when I was having a seizure. My life was extremely stress from them until my mid thirties. Then I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder. It's been quite a trip. When things get weird I tell myself, hang in and go for the ride. It will get better. ❤
Buck, you have the biggest heart. Thank you for using your platform to help people tell the truth.
Wow. What a beautiful young woman between social media and school, she didn’t stand a chance in being her authentic self. This is so tragic. I don’t agree with Republicans 99.999% of the time but this needs to stop. We all have to agree that this is disgusting and predatory behavior in social media and the schools. none of this existed when I went to school in the 70s and 80s,this is all manufactured😡 not to mention that I just lost all respect for Planned Parenthood. Shame, shame shame on you.!!
I'm a conservative leaning constitutionalist, and I agree as well. This is not a party issue anymore. This is about the damage to children/young adults. which, in turn, messes with the entire family and social structure. This is most definitely predatory behavior dorected towards children for the sake of greed as these people turn into "forever patients". Also, in my belief, to normalize pedophilia. Sexualiing children should be abhorrent to everyone. Only those who are pedophiles are okay with sexualizong children.
(**on a aide note but related- a state(I believe it was Idaho) passed a law to punish child rapists more severely, up to capital punishment. A ton of LGBT activists/groups are saying, "This law will be used to target LGBT people, this is genocide towards LGBT people." I'm sorry, but just no, that is not the case. The only way that would make sense is if you are saying that LGBT people are pedophiles and want to rape children.)
I’m center-left and disagree with the GOP almost all the time, but in agreement that this horror needs to stop. There is now a whole industry behind influencing children to transition. The TRAs also spend their time bullying biological women and working towards the erasure of women, first in sports then it will be in other areas.
No offensive however why do Americans put all values in a political box..one of the issues with political parties world wide is mixing economic theory with values often to two are very different
Jade is so lovely…so glad she found herself and didn’t go further into that world that wasn’t for her.
I can’t imagine that you looked in the mirror and saw a monster. I hope you know how beautiful you are, both physically and spiritually. It is criminal what they did to you. If they were doing these things when I was in school, I could have easily been coerced into falling for that ideology. Thank you for telling your story, you will help many people. Education is the key to preventing others from going down the same road. You are brave for sharing your experience.
20:39 oh my god… I think this is probably a perspective I would have shared when I was younger. I also felt alien to my gender, and really got into the type of fan fiction she’s describing. I bet that aspect of the new-gen trans experience is shared by many. She’s just the first person I’ve heard speak about it out loud
Thank you so much for sharing. And Thank you so much for the powerful advice for us parents. 💕
Hi Buck. I have a very similar story but I'm from Mexico. Everything she said was so relatable to me Thank youJade and Buck for sharing this amazing intrerview!!
She is so beautiful.And look at her beautiful eyes. Bullies can be so mean. TFS Jades story Buck.You are an awsome human for sharing these stories helping others. I do believe the internet can be very dangerous at times. And with some of these people putting ideas in childrens heads. I hopes Jades finds peace. ☮
Buck Angel, hi. You seem like a really cool person. I love how you handle these precious and very personal topics.
This world is blessed to have you. 🎉
Buck, it’s so hard to be as real as you but you’re amazing. Love you so much. I hope when I get my degree I can be on your show lol.
We support you Jade!!❤❤ bout to enter my keyboard warrior era..🤜
really brave of her to discuss her medical issues in such a frank and honest way.
Excited to finally catch ya live
welcome!❤
Shortly after having our fifth baby, I had my first gallbladder attack. We now have eight children and I've had two heart attacks (I'm old now) and NOTHING hurt as bad as my gallbladder did. The surgeon that removed it says he's seen 350lb linebackers screaming like toddlers because the pain is so bad! Made is lovely and no doubt she'll make a wonderful mother one day.
I gonne write in netherland because i can better expres
Als eerste mijn respect voor jullie beide
En bedankt voor dit gesprek
Nu naar BUCK ik weet iet of jij het weet maar je bent zo ongelofelijk waardevol door deze video te maken. Met al het werk wat jij doet redt jij kinderen,ik ben een moeder ik ben 56 en ik ben in shock wat dokters en regeringen doen met kinderen. Ik ben zo bang voor alle kinderen waar nu tegen gelogen wordt en daardoor hun leven vernield wordt. Ik ben zo dankbaar dat jij er bent. Als er eengod bestaat, dan heeft hij jou als engel gestuurd om kinderen te redden. Dank je van uit de grond van mijn hart ❤
Frim Canada here I totally agree with you 😢
Thank both of you for having the courage to have this critical conversation!
An inflamed gallbladder does hurt really bad. I had an issue with mine last year and had to get it removed. Then about 5 months later had a hysterectomy because I had a very large uterine fibroid. They left my ovaries , left tube and most of my right tube because they didn't want me to go through menopause at 40 years old. I'm sorry this happened to this person and I love your videos because even though I'm not trans it gives me more insight on trans people. I can't even begin to imagine the mental pain associated with all of it. Your channel came up as recommended because I was watching Blair Whites videos , I love her videos as well.
This poor woman is so traumatized. "I don't remember." I hope she recovers and finds happiness
This world needs your papa bear energy, Uncle Buck! To offer compassion, understanding, and support for all LGB people, and those who have struggled with gender dysphoria whether or not medical transition is the proper route for their lives. Keep swangin that big, thick heart of yours 😂❤
Please delete my comment if the innuendo was too inappropriate. I understand 😅
Thank you so much for being so brave to share your story. We are going through the same we aren't out the other end as they still don't see the dangers and it's not what they are. We are being as supportive as we can but it's difficult to watch your baby go through something they shouldn't have to. Keep spreading your story ❤❤❤
❤You're so brave Jade and you're truly helping educate and potentially save the next "Jade" from traveling this road!!
My heart absolutely broke hearing Jade talk about thinking how she was failing to conceive and blaming herself. I went through those same thoughts for so many years, and it really does break you down and take its toll on you; especially if you're someone who has always known they want children at some point. I'm so glad to hear that as far as she knows, she can still conceive, and I hope she gets that wish of hers when she feels ready again. 🖤
I think it's so brave of Jade to get this message out there. She is a beautiful young woman who deserves to live her dream.
It especially irks me when pretty girls want to transition when they’re not even dysphoric. It’s such a waste of beauty! I’m not criticizing her - I’m faulting gender ideology. I can’t stand how woke culture disdains beauty in general, but that’s another topic.
that's her little luck: still good looks, still a woman and a pleasant voice! 😃 ⚘️☘️
I had a short phase in my tween-teen years struggling with being an ugly girl. I really didn’t think I was that ugly but everyone around me was prettier and had boyfriends, I was basically invisible. During that phase I thought of transitioning because I thought I might not be a girl if I looked so weird and manly.. Glad I got through those times, my self esteem was nonexistent.
Severe ocd is up there as one of the most destructive conditions and very high in suicide.. :( i feel for all pepple with OCD insanely more than normal folk. It's a very misunderstood disorder and the severity is super extreme
Jade, you are beautiful inside and out. Thank you for having the courage and empathy to share your story. Your heart shines. Buck, thank you a million times for having guests like Jade on your channel. Your heart and compassion for others is so encouraging. "So shines a good deed in a weary world"- Shakespeare
Keep it up Tranpa! These conversations are fascinating and important.
Great interview. I would just like to say, we can’t forget why this happened. Blaming it on big pharma is part of the issue but the trans community and activists must also take responsibility for this social contagion they created. As we know, this was a rarity before social contagion. Doctors had long paths in place- activists shorted or all but destroyed the gatekeeping. It all worked hand in hand and snowballed creating a huge mess quicker than anyone could anticipate. Tho I agree with you this detransitioner is not solely to blame for their decisions they must also admit their part. We don’t know if anyone witnessed their transition and influenced anyone in their friend group or online. 18 is young, but they are an adult. I’m attempting to say this with clarity and respect so I apologize if it doesn’t come across that way 💕
