012 | What they don’t tell you about transitioning - from a transgender man | Scott Newgent

Scott Newgent is the founder of TREvoices.org - Scott underwent gender reassignment at the age of 41 and following a series of medical issues stemming directly as a result from transitioning which amongst other issues almost resulted in him dying led Scott on a pathway to found TRE Voices with the goal of preventing children transitioning and shed light on the realities of transitioning - though it may be right for some people - everyone needs to be fully informed and children shouldn't be transitioned nor should they be taught gender ideology in the classrooms.
Join me as we take a dive in to the realities around transitioning, the deep rooted homophobia of the modern movement to transition everyone & some of the medical complications around transitioning that the pamphlets at your local gender affirming therapists offices don't tell you.
