Summary

Today, we're joined by Daisy Strongin, wife, mother and de-transitioner, to hear her story of believing she was a boy, medically transitioning, and then ultimately finding Christ. We start off with Daisy's first feelings of being uncomfortable in her body and how she came to believe she wasn't a girl. She explains how chronically online she was growing up and how this connected her to online groups of girls who were also questioning their gender. We discuss what her parents thought of her newfound "identity" once she started calling herself a boy, and Daisy explains how easy it was to get both testosterone and a double mastectomy. Stay tuned for part two tomorrow! --- Timecodes: (01:05) Introduction to Daisy / Growing up (12:57) Chronically online & finding "gender community" (19:57) Threats of denying "trans identity" (22:56) Parent reactions (25:00) Medical transition & medical red flags (34:10) Depression (40:18) Double mastectomy --- Today's Sponsors: Good Ranchers — get 10% OFF your box today at GoodRanchers.com – make sure to use code 'ALLIE' when you subscribe.
