Detransitioner Chloe Cole told a Senate committee that children are being subjected to irreversible transgender medical procedures before they are mature enough to understand the consequences.
Cole, who began transitioning at 12 and underwent a double mastectomy at 15, said she later regretted the decision and urged lawmakers to protect minors from similar outcomes. She also warned that many parents are pressured into affirming a child’s transition out of fear that refusing could lead to suic1de.
