The California State Assembly is considering SB 107 from Scott Weiner which would make California a "sanctuary state" for children seeking "gender-affirming" care, even from out of state, and "protecting" children from parents who won't affirm their gender.

Chloe Cole, a 17-year-old girl who was given "gender-affirming" care, has thoughts.

I was medically transitioned from the ages of 13-16. My parents took me to a therapist who affirmed my male identity and the therapist did not care about causality or encourage me to feel comfortable in my body.

He brushed off my parents concerns about the efficacy of hormones, puberty blockers and surgeries. My parents were given the threat of suicide as the reason to move me forward in my transition.

At 13, they started the young girl on hormones and puberty blockers. At 15 she asked to have her breasts removed. She attended a class with 12 girls her age or younger who thought they were boys and wanted their breasts removed.

I was unknowingly physically cutting off my true self from my body, irreversibly and painfully.

Our trans identities were not questioned, we went through with the surgery. Despite having therapists and attending the "top surgery" class I didn't really understand all of the ramifications of the medical decisions I was making.

I wasn't capable of understanding and it was downplayed consistently.

This bill would take these decisions completely away from the parents and give them to girls like Chloe who are too young to know what's happening. The damage is irreversible.

I will never be able to breastfeed a child. I have blood clots in my urine. I am unable to fully empty my bladder. I do not yet know if I am capable of carrying a child to full term.

In fact, even the doctors who put me on puberty blockers and testosterone do not know.

This is such a powerful and devastating testimony. And everyone should see it.
