Hi, we're Bridget and Jackie, a loving mother and transgender daughter with a vision we hope you’ll join us in working toward…saving lives, keeping families together, and making work, school, and all spaces safe for transgender people through education and advocacy.
Episode 47 | Sophia's Life Story and Being Transgender in the Navy
Gender-affirming care saves lives. It'll be hard to think about anything else once you've listened to today's episode. Fear, isolation, self-harm, self-hatred, and frustration are some of the feelings many trans people feel all the time, and it only gets better when they can come out.
In our last episode, Sophia Alexander shared her thoughts on the manosphere and the political landscape in America. Today, she opens up in the most vulnerable, genuine, inspiring, and brave way to share her story and how she came to embrace her trans identity.
You'll hear about Sophia's difficult childhood, growing up surrounded by violence against LGBTQ people, in a traditional family and an even more conventional society, and lacking not only the support from like-minded people but also the resources to reach them. You'll also hear about the dark places Sophia has gone to, the ways that coming out and transitioning improved her mental health, her thoughts on what the future looks like for trans people in the military, and much more.
In This Episode, You Will Learn:
About Sophia's challenging upbringing (3:50)
What lack of gender-affirming care can do to people (14:10)
Why Sophia decided to join the military (19:20)
Sophia's post-military life and her decision to transition (27:00)
When being trans becomes a "social liability" (35:00)
The torturing feeling of being trans and not transitioning (43:10)

Can gender-affirming therapy change people's minds? Transgender kids and their parents often have very different expectations about what gender-affirming therapy will provide. For some parents, the hope is that when their child starts therapy, they’ll realize they aren’t really trans, but instead are gay, confused, or just in a phase. But studies have shown that among transgender kids, less tha...

Though right-wing talking heads try to manipulate suicide rate statistics, the data proves that the number one cause of self-harm and destructive behavior in the LGBTQ community is a lack of family acceptance. Kids who come out as transgender are not confused, are not in a phase, are not following a fad, and are not trying to rebel against their parents. From conversion efforts to more subtle f...

She is evil and should have her license taking away
I swear transpeople they are either people who are unattractive and never got the attention from the opposite gender, becoming that gender. So gender is a societal contruct in that context because they never felt masculinity/feminine since they never got the acceptance from the opposite gender, thinking they must not be a man/women since they never got acceptance from the people they want to attract. Or they are just gay feeling more comfortable being perceived as the opposite gender to attract the same gender that they never got attention from, since those people weren't gay.
Tell us your fvcked in the head without telling us your fvcked in the head...

THIS SUPPOSEDLY DR HAS BLOOD IN HER HANDS FOR MUTILATING CHILDREN
So you say there are no surgeries on children?? No detransitioners? Well, your house of cards is about to crumble; you may want to lawyer up (and get used to using the men's bathroom again). Do No Harm just posted insurance data (so JUST insurance, not private pay data) of how many minors have been hurt by this ideology in the medical field. That you are actively going into parent chat rooms full of confused and hurting parents and telling parents that these things "don't happen" is sick. You are all evil and your time will come to own up to the part you played in destroying families and lives. As Helen Joyce says, the parents who supported this for their kids will be the last ones fighting on the hill of transgenderism because the guilt of what they allowed and supported their kid to do will be too much to bear. (Oh, and some of those "non existant" detranitioners are posting that is are some of the hospitals that mutilated them). The child trans industry is a lucrative one💰💰💰: Between 2019 and 2023, hospitals submitted more than $100 MILLION in claims for these *experimental treatments on children*. During this time: ➡ 13,994 CHILDREN were given irreversible and damaging gender treatments at U.S. based medical facilities. ➡ 5,747 children underwent a sex-change surgical procedure. ➡ 8,579 children received cross-sex hormones or puberty blockers. ➡ Over 60K prescriptions for these drugs were written for children. BOTTOM LINE: Over 90% of children with gender dysphoria will grow out of that belief during their adolescent and young adult years. Almost 14,000 children throughout the United States were NOT given that option. It is time to #StopTheHarm. x.com/donoharm/status/1843720288103453003
No My Lord and Savior never said that, He reached out to all to teach them that sin no matter what it is , is wrong.
No you can't, you may want it too. Christ said to be of man and women. We all fall short of the grace of God. We as humans try to justify our sins to make ourselves feel better.
Trump 2024!!!
holy crap - this like watching a session in a mental institute....what a joke
“We’ve had enough old white men who just don’t get it!” What exactly don’t ‘they’ get that someone of the opposite gender and of Indian decent does get? Donald trump is not going to take away trans rights. He will limit children from making irreversible choices with puberty blockers that cause permanent loss of sexual function and risk sterilization. He gets it so much more than someone who just wants anyone who feels lost/in need of mental health services first to be able to self-ID as trans and get pushed thru the system to make all that money off turning minors into permanent medical patients and if they change their mind no one wants to hear it, so byee. Someone who just rattles off buzzwords and phrases like Kamala Harris doesn’t get it. She was asked about inflation and she didn’t answer and instead went into a monologue about how everyone should be able to be who they wanna be and do what they want with their bodies. That’s who you guys want to lead the USA and struggling Americans into better times
And I don’t think trumps at his limit of who’s already decided they’re gonna vote for him. You can be LGBT+ and also believe in conservative policies. Definitely do your OWN research. Don’t just be a follower bc the mainstream news talks sh*t and UA-cam recommends you liberal videos. Do your own digging before voting. I just think it’s a little funny that Kamala now agrees on needing a wall built at the border. Even she’s capable of seeing the reality of some situations. I was liberal until I was challenged on my beliefs by someone.. and the more I researched the more I was like, wait…
Why is this coming up in my recommended videos.. I literally watch Blaire white, Amala Ekponobi, the whatever podcast, Joe Rogan.. and a lot other channels that made me go from… did I register democrat bc that’s what I am? oh wait no… I’m definitely not lol
Keep this Evil to yourselves. And stay out of female restrooms. Also get psychological help please!
Trump 2024 ❤🤍💙
Trump 2024
Love Trump!!!!
This is hilarious. Your democrat party has put your country in the shit over the last 4 years but you’ll vote them back in. Some just based on sex and skin colour. People don’t need to search for Trump. He’s not the one hiding.
The confusion podcast!!
LOL for real
HI GUYS LOVE IS LOVE I LOVE YOU GUYS ALLWAYS
I don't support Kamala Harris, and I don't support the transgender movement. This video came up in my YT feed and I watched out of curiosity, but I don't support your channel or your agenda.
Godbless you sander you are such a hero for LGBTQ
Delusional!!!
#Trump2024!!!!!
Kamala is just Obama’s 4th term candidate. We don’t want another 4 years of this craziness. I much rather vote Trump than pick Kamala and have this world continue confusing our youth. Stop pushing the gender 💩 on our kids. If you are an adult and want to be trans, feel free to do so but pushing it on others. Let kids be kids. #savethetomboys #stoptransingthekids
Your world view is evil. No ones identity has anything to do with that person's subjective feelings
wow?
great, when alle the Muslims will take over. All the gender stuff will disappear by voting the Democrats...
We don’t want y’all molesting the children that’s all. Let them enjoy their childhood instead of confusing them please. Love you all! I wish this channel success but be honest and open. I for one support whoever you want to love and I want y’all to find acceptance but just dont try to be in relationships with kids or support those who do want to be in relationships with children please.
Wow, so amazing, a trans woman set a new record in a woman's race. Who would have thought?
Scary that these "humans?" even have a podcast
Deranged and delusional.
How is trump anti trans, Kamala wants more immigrants and immigrants are anti trans
"war hawk tuah " harris, is paying for all the attention she is getting. Non of it is organic, as kamala has only made life worse, for the black community
loving the comments here, clearly people who care about humanity, which is the opposite of the globalist's goal, to indoctrinate society, with woke ideology.
Yea we want this thriving economy that is Bidenomics. 😂
Just don't vote on one issue. Look at all issues and vote for the one whose issues are more in your favor. Both sides
Not necessarily anti-trans. Just transing kids
It is really significant that you say TRUTH. President TRUMP WAS SHOT. Ridiculous; you make it sound as if it wasn't a bullet. Trump doesn't want to mutilate CHILDREN ONLY. This country is not about Trans - This country is about our FREEDOMS. You will not vote on policy then. I'm not sure you understand the Democratic party has gone rouge. Complete focus on your Trans agenda, only. How has your life been the last 4 years? TRUMP 2024
A huge proportion of these children would never have gone down this path if it wasn't put into their heads by narcissistic women such as yourselves. A tiny proportion would. If genitals don't define gender how does removing them affirm gender ?
y is male xx is female so he is rght
I would argue trans people are anti trans: if every person went trans, the human race would end.
💯🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻kind regards from New Zealand 🇳🇿❤
Stop it! Not against, just want to protect the children who are being indoctrinated by all this woke crap! Stop it!!!!!!
I am glad the comments feel the same way I do.
As a woman, I refuse to vote for someone that doesn’t know what a woman is. To say that “a woman is anyone that identifies as a woman” reduces women to a costume that can be taken off and on at whim. That is NOT what a woman is. A woman exclusively started as a FEMALE fetus, what born a baby girl, and grew up to be a woman. Everyone else who lives as a woman is a MALE living as a woman. That includes intersex males and trans identifying males. They are no more a woman than a dog is a cat.
Thank god they are against trans ideology!
You don’t have to keep convincing us, we’re already voting Trump.
Why are you voting for trump?
@@beastlinger8399 I will give you a detailed reply if you really want to know. I voted for Hilary Clinton in 2016 because the media said all this crazy stuff about Trump, that he was going to crash the economy and start world war 3. Then I saw Hilary and the media scream on the top of their lungs that the election was stolen from them FOR YEARS. All the while none of the fear mongering came true, instead the economy was booming and there was a level of international peace that I had not seen in my lifetime (born in 1989). That is until covid happened. And what exactly happened during covid? Trump left it up to each governor to decide how to run their states. Isn’t this the opposite of what “a dictator” would do? What actually happened is that democrats went full blown authoritarian, forcing people to stay home, and tanking the economy in the process, while most republicans governors kept their states open for business. The data has been in for a long time, these states did not fare any worse covid-wise. Then we had an election where the democrats decided to overhaul our entire electoral system merely months before Election Day. They send out millions upon millions of mass mail in votes and have unattended drop boxes everywhere with no chain of custody, and now after years of “TRUMP CHEATED - RUSSIAGATE!!!”’ You all want to clutch your pearls if people have questions? I’m sorry, but I have still yet to see any transparent accounting of what happened that election and explanations for the anomalies. Things still don’t add up, like the supposed most popular president in history based on last elections vote count, needing to drop out of his reelection because he cannot win. I’m not saying it was definitely stolen, but I will not apologize for having questions. Especially when the people who have been proven as liars over and over again are the ones who started telling me it was “the safest and fairest election in history” after less than a week had gone by. And now look, ever since it’s been a non stop shit show compared to Trump’s term. We have crazy inflation, mass illegal migration, high crime rates, Afghanistan mess, Russia v Ukraine, Palestine & Iran v Israel, and much more. The average home has gone from $290k to $450k, and that doesn’t factor in the higher interest rates. We’ve been lied to over and over that Biden is fine when he is clearly not, and his second in command seems just as incompetent as he is, and that seems pretty obvious based on all the evidence right in front of our faces. Everything they warned us would happen under Trump in 2016 has happened with Biden and Harris since 2020. This is all extremely evident to everyone paying attention who has not been so propagandized and indoctrinated that they believe Trump is the next Hitler despite him already being in office for four years and not doing anything that comes remotely close to justify those comparisons. Me and many others who are paying attention are voting Trump 2024, and there’s literally nothing you could say to change our minds.
@@beastlinger8399 millions of illegals, and highest inflation in ages, plus two wars under biden, while none under Trump
There is only hope in Jesus Christ to find comfort in your soul. Transgender ideology will not give you the peace that youre looking for. Jesus Christ will. Repent and believe, taste and see that the Lord is good.
Let kids be kids! No child should be mutilated! Child abuse must be stopped.
