In this episode, we dive into two powerful stories shaping today’s trans discourse. First, a raw look at new U.S. military policies forcing out transgender service members, canceling promised early retirements, and adding discharge codes that could harm future careers. Then, we break down groundbreaking research from Dr. Keenan McKinnon on why people detransition, revealing a far more complex picture than the headlines suggest.Finally, we sit down with Theresa (@theresaverity), a UK woman who transitioned as a teen in the early 2000s through the now-closed Tavistock clinic. She shares her childhood experiences, the moment she realized transition was possible, and how it’s shaped her happy adult life—offering a rare success story in a debate too often dominated by regret narratives.This episode blends policy, data, and deeply personal stories to highlight the need for compassion, nuance, and evidence in conversations about trans lives.
