A Detransitioner on the Lie of Trans ‘Joy’ | Guest: Laura Perry Smalts (Part Two) | Ep 897

- Today, we’re joined again by detransitioner Laura Perry Smalts, author of Transgender to Transformed: A Story of Transition That Will Truly Set You Free, to continue her testimony of believing she was a man to embracing her womanhood under Christ. Laura shares the timeline of her hormone "treatments," double mastectomy and hysterectomy, and the moment she realized that these surgeries and treatments wouldn't actually make her a man. We discuss the common claim made by "trans" people that they are truly happier after transitioning, and the truth that it's often a lie to keep up appearances and convince themselves of a lie. Laura shares her heartbreak of realizing she had lost the opportunity to have children, and how God ultimately reached her at her lowest. We talk about the dignity in biblical womanhood and God's love for women, and how these truths led Laura to accept who God made her to be. We also share some advice on how to approach loved ones who think they're trans.

A Detransitioner on the Lie of Trans ‘Joy’ | Guest: Laura Perry Smalts (Part Two) | Ep 897
I wish I could sit down with her and my daughter who is planning on transitioning at 18. That's only a few months away and I'm still praying for a miracle, that she'll wake up.
why are you trying to control your kid's desires to fit with your own lol
Amen(it is done)! Remember what Jesus said in Luke 18: 1-8. Keep praying because we know as mentioned in Ephesians 6:12-20, it is not just what we see in the physical but actions happen first in the spiritual and the results are made manifest in the physical/flesh. God is good! I prayed for your child may God do a wonderful speedy work! Don’t become discouraged the devil will make you believe that God is not listening to you but he is the God who sees as we know from Genesis 16:13! God’s timing is perfect. There has been times when God has come through in my life in the very last hour! Remember to tell Satan 1 John 4:4! Lastly, remember Jesus overcame Satan using the word. The word(the Bible - Jesus made manifest) is the sword in the spiritual realm! We don’t use really weapons or fight with our words, as Hebrews 4:12 but we take it to the heavenly courts, Hebrews 4:16! Pray, stay in God’s word morning, break times, night! It doesn’t have to be long you could read a verse but apply it in prayer! We remind God of his word and because he is true and just he will acknowledge what we recite to him from the word that he has graciously blessed us with! God is good! Satan wants these kids so badly and some people are letting there kids be turned over but you are a great mom! God bless you and your household, Joshua 24:15. I was once an atheist and lived a homosexual lifestyle that included plenty of raving and hard drugs from the ages of 15-22. BUT, I have a praying mom and she always loved me but never accepted my sin. She never compromised Jesus or the word of God and she battled for years in the courts of heaven praying and interceding for me! However, God told her you are trying to fight alone. Surrender this problem to me 100% and it will be done. My mom fought for nearly a decade, but once she surrendered my life to God, within 2 months of her obeying God, I was saved(she fought for nearly a decade). One day I was deeply suicidal and for some reason I called out to God and he literally surround me with his peace! I have been made new! It’s been a process but I draw closer to him daily! A big part of my daily walk includes reading my Bible day and night and ALWAYS praying even at work! It’s not easy but if we try he will meet us! God was merciful! I almost died of an overdose in Las Vegas I tried to kill myself a handful of times but he never let me die. I am grateful because I knew in my heart that if I did I would have been in the pits of hell. God is good don’t give up! Your child is not up for grabs! Satan can’t prevail because our God is greater and if two agree or more agree he is the midst, Matthew 18:20! I am in agreement with you mama! God bless you! Jeremiah 33:3-5, God is always near we serve the true living God and thank you Jesus he enables use to personally interact with our Heavenly Father so that we can depend on him always! Our God is dependable even when our path may seem dark he is still ahead of us making a way! He is the way-maker, Isaiah 43: 15-16! Amen(it is done) we thank you in the MIGHTY name of Jesus! We believe, your will be done!
@@Zippy_ZoltonThere are so many testimonies from detransitioners on how they deeply regret the choices they made on their path to transition. Can you blame a parent for not wanting her daughter to make a choice that has this potential?
@@erinbuck129 and even more detransitions happen because of discrimination in the area lol
@@Zippy_Zolton why would she want to watch her daughter ruin her life? Parents that love their children want them to know the truth. That’s why!
Thanks for this! I did not go through physical transition because it was not even a thing in the 80's, so I thought I would HAVE to be a girl- though I hated it for so long and was so uncomfortable, as she spoke of, not knowing how to be a girl, much less a woman! I also was close to my Dad, and very angry at my mom. But again, through the transforming love of Jesus, I not only married a man, but had two girls- who are quite feminine (despite my insecurities in that area) and am now, SOOO HAPPY and daily embrace being a woman! Jesus is real! He changes hearts and minds. He will start tenderly with us with whatever limitations we have, but doesn't leave us there!
Please pray for my daughter too, she will be 19 in a few weeks and as soon as she turned 18 she began transitioning and taking testosterone. Please pray that God protects her and shields her from any permanent harm and that she can love and accept her true self. ❤
Praying for your child ♡
I couldn't imagine what your going through. I pray your daughter will encounter Yeshua and she will refrain from the enemies LIES. In Yeshua's MIGHTY Name I pray Amen Amen Amen ❤ may God give you His peace❤
I*n Jesus name I’m praying for your child.
Praying!
🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
I love this woman’s story. I have three kids. My 24-year-old daughter is “non-binary”, my 25-year-old son is very intolerant of this whole movement/thing, and a 21-year-old daughter that is very supportive of her “sibling” that identifies as non-binary.
I refuse to go along with the lie and won’t call my daughter by her preferred name or her preferred pronouns. I refuse to lie to her which is what I would be doing by going along with all of this. It’s one of the hardest things that I have ever had to go through as a parent. I’m praying to God that she will just grow out of this whole thing and realize who she really is and accept that. This woman’s story is so encouraging! I love my 24-year-old daughter more than anything, but I cannot support this lie.
And you shouldn’t as a parent you are the only one who tells the truth because you care
Always hold the truth over the lie. God is faithful still 💚
Keep praying for your children !!
I will be praying with you as I am in a similar situation
Hey there - I am a couple years older than your daughter and when I was that age and younger I also thought I was non-binary and grew out of it. many women do. for what it’s worth, I think you’re doing the right thing by not affirming it as that will only drive her deeper into the ideology and she will become addicted to the validation of it. I’m not religious but realized this movement preys on mentally unwell young people and that’s why I stopped supporting it.
Love her story, and as a 60 yr old man, the struggle to love God and run from sin continues. Tho the devil pursues us, God is greater still.
My brother has a daughter who is transitioning and he used that same analogy about his daughter dying. I pray for my niece Gabriella constantly.
It’s like the “ new” person murdered your child.
@@flowerpower3618 and we are forced to mourn the loss of a child while they are still alive and someone that we don't fully know walks around in their body.
How old is your niece? If you do not mind me asking.
🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
My son doesn't look happy. He looks sad. This is giving me so much hope!
What a TESTIMONY!!! I had goosebumps when she said she had just gotten married !!!
6500 biological differences between men and women! Wow. I'm so happy to hear Laura's story. What a testimony of God's great grace and mercy!
I feel for families and children going thru this. It shows how far from God our country is. It would be wonderful if Laura was allowed to speak at schools but God is kept out of schools too. Great testimony Laura. Thank you for sharing.
Laura is so wise. God has given her so much wisdom. I can hear her all day talk about God. Glory to God.
What an amazing episode of hope and restoration and redemption. God is just amazing.
My sister and I were both serious tomboys and she and I both agree that had we been born today, we would have been convinced we were transgender and we are both so grateful we were both raised in the 80’s…we are both straight females and are mothers.
Wow, what a testimony Laura...thank you for sharing. As a mom to a ftm (began at 18 & now is nearly 24) your testimony is what I've been claiming for my own daughter! I know that the Lord gives beauty for ashes...I'm claiming that in my child's life, and for others. He can restore...He IS restoring what the enemy has stolen. The victory is Mine, saith the Lord. Glory be to God!!
In agreement with you! In Jesus name! 🙌🙌
Amen
stay on your knees for her. it's been very hard for her, i can assure you she's actually unhappy, and at the day the holy spirit will convinces her, she's gonna accept the Truth. i "was" ftm from my 15 until my 20 and it was a hard time. but i had my mom on knees for me, never giving up. only jesus restores identities. stay on your position and the holy spirit will conquer her soul 🤩
🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
Laura’s story is so encouraging. It blessed me immensely. Lord, thank You for using Laura to reach others.
So encouraging to hear about how God has been working in her life ❤️ praise the Lord!
This woman is so inspiring. Her forgiveness for her mom, and as a woman who struggles with my issues of just anger towards my parents for the things they did and my issues. It really touched me. I wish her the best
I am so glad and happy that i grew up in Africa and in Christian family as well. I never really had such a good relationship with my parents growing up. I was hyperactive, defiant, black sheep all throughout my life. I was recently diagnosed with ADHD and my eyes were opened because i have never had my own identity. And it was quite scary because i have been a Tomboy all my life…i thank God so much because had i been born in 1st world country or Britain where am based now, that is the route i would have taken….
The devil is a liar! He lost and always will!
Laura is beautiful. Thank you for sharing your story ❤
what a POWERFUL and BEAUTIFUL testimony of what God can do!!! i can personally testify to what Laura said. i’m not a detransitioner or even LGBTQ, but i went thru my own struggles with my identity and my own sin.
what the power of knowing our identity in Christ can do and what He does in us when we just believe He is who he says he is.. once we trust Him, He has NO LIMITS. words can’t even describe what He can do in a persons life.
This interview helped me in ways I didn’t expect it to. Some of what Laura shared in this interview about childhood relationship complexities and exposures connected a lot of dots for me. Thanks for what you do, Laura!
❤
Same here❤
My daughter 31 lives a Romans 1 lifestyle and wicca. PLEASE pray for her. She rarely talks to me anymore. Only talks to her dad or grandpa when she needs something. Even more rarely talks to my parents & aunt.
Such a strong woman!
God bless her immensely 💌
God is so good! He uses even the smallest things to bring people back to Him. Allie, you are so good at interviewing. You care, your calm, and you ask the deep questions so gracefully. What an amazing interview. Loved hearing her story of how God transformed her life.
I’m in tears what a beautiful testimony! Praise God!!! ❤Wow!
I love how God is bringing light to those living in darkness. He’s such a Wonderful Father.
Laura’s testimony is truly amazing! I heard her story at the True Woman conference a few years ago! There wasn’t a dry eye in the house! Every one needs to hear her redemption story! Gives me hope knowing God can change anyone! Love and prayers to Laura for her bold courage! ❤️🙏🏻✝️
Doubtful given there is no proof God exists
@@thorpeaaron1110you are here so there is hope.
@@scapps8173Yeah but that wasn't because of God
@@thorpeaaron1110
Romans 1:18-19--"For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God has shown it to them."
@@thorpeaaron1110 but there is proof! Just look around at creation! The mountains and oceans, the birds, puppies, kittens, the sunlight, moon and stars! And YOU my friend! Every cell in your body, every strand of DNA that was uniquely designed to create YOU with intricate design, detail and purpose! ❤️
Think of it this way-
When you see a building, you know it came from a builder or a painting comes from an artist! It is scientifically impossible to think that something came from nothing! All of the beauty around us just came from nothing? A big bang? Creation had to come from a Creator! If you choose to believe a big bang created it all, that is your choice…But I think you are hearing and reading all of these messages for a reason! I don’t know your story but we all have one! Four years ago, I never thought twice about God! Too busy living life my way- and that wasn’t going too well for me! God rescued and redeemed me… I am forever grateful to Him for stirring ny heart and lifting the veil from my eyes! And I will be praying He does the same for you! I speak all this in love because I truly care! God bless! ❤️🙏🏻
My youngest daughter has a son who believes he is female. She and her husband have shut me out of their lives because I am a vocal Christian. I am not allowed to be in that child’s life. He has just turned 18 and will presumably fully transition soon. The saddest part is their Christian testimony. They are now Episcopalians, and my daughter has recently been ordained as a deacon and preaches regularly in area churches in her part of NY. I fear for this family’s future. I have been counseled by family and Christian friends not to say anything negative in order to stay in her life. Since I live in Texas, I am never around her, not even on the telephone, just texting and exchanging pictures. Her fanaticism for the trans cause is very radical. Please pray for them. I’m at a loss as to how to be connected to those I love, but also remain a voice of godly wisdom.
Prayers for you, your daughter and your family!
Perhaps they would be willing to watch this interview?
My heart aches for you, sister...
"Though none go with me, still I will follow. No turning back, no turning back."
Keep praying for your family, as I pray for mine. We have to keep trusting in God's goodness, that He loves to seek and save that which was lost.
He knows every tear you have shed, my dear.
Never give up praying!
That must be so hard to walk through. What I take away from this interview is never stop praying or loving without affirming. You can be empathetic toward their struggles and loving them without caving to their desires for affirmation.
We have a trans niece and are very much in the struggle as well. We love on her, ask questions about her life, and just try to avoid pronouns at all costs. God is bigger!!!
What a blessing her testimony is ❤
What an amazing story of redemption. God bless you, Laura, for sharing your testimony. To God be the glory!
This was an incredible story! Your guest was so articulate and honest. I really appreciated her ability to step through her story methodically and give us insight into her mindset at the moment. But even more she continually gave God credit for her transformation and healing. Such a powerful testimony!
Praising the Lord for such a beautiful testimony! May it reach and soften hearts and bring others into a personal relationship with Jesus.
I don’t comment very often but feel led to to thank Laura for her story and her testimony. His light is shining on her and I will pray that others will be led and guided to our Lord and Savior by her truth and they will find the peace in Him that only he can give. Blessings
Amen
what an amazing woman! I was in tears listening to her. The part were they talked about SA resonated. I hated my femininity and saw it as weak. I acted more masculine because of this and had an eating disorder for years due to hating my body. I didn't even realise all this related to S abuse until I got saved and God revealed it to me. So much depth in this interview and Laura is a mighty force for the kingdom! God bless you Laura!
I relate so much to her words but I'm not Trans I'm just a woman, and I have struggled with sin, with disease and physical pain and relationship trauma and confusion. I struggled with losing my reproductive organs to disease. I had to grow in God's grace in my body, heart, my marriage and as a parent and woman. I grew up same time frame too and there's so much confusion then and now. I know myself and others relate on so many levels to this as women and has nothing to do with being Trans but can relate and to me its same thing just a different drug a different version of the same defilement and bitterness we all find ourselves in when we are buried in sin and cover it with the world instead of the blood of Jesus
This is the most beautiful testimony I have EVER heard! God is so good. This gives so much hope... Thank you, and God bless you, sweet woman of God!
Amazing testimony ! Laura , it’s amazing what God has done in your life and your heart . You are so brave to stand up and to shed light on this subject ❤I’m so grateful I found this channel and interview !
What an incredible testimony. Thank you for sharing Laura. You are so articulate and well-spoken and I was so encouraged by your understanding of your faith. May God continue to richly bless you!
Whom the Son has set free is free indeed❣️What a Blessing from our Father God to hear your excellent testimony,how He has Blessed you so❣️Amen & Shalom!
God bless her!❤ om so happy the Lord has healed her smd worked in her life in such a great way.
She said..if you're praying 🙏 for someone and think it's not working
Keep going
I needed to hear that this afternoon. ❤ 🙌🙏
What a beautiful testimony ❤ 👑🕊️
Excellent interview. I was so blessed to hear this testimony. It's encouraged me in so many ways. Praise God!
What a story! Laura speaks truth so eloquently. Her love for the Lord is so apparent. Thanks be to God for His healing.
I have said that so many times! I’m so thankful that I was born when I was & the grace I received by Jesus!
Such a hopeful and amazing testimony! The beauty of this woman is beyond anything I've seen. God just shines through her. Brought me to tears.
I don't understand how the doctor who did her surgery is any different from any doctor who does mastectomies? Sounds like the doctors skill was no better than any doctor who does mastectomies. Doesn't make sense to me. If it doesn't make sense it makes money. Thank you Laura for talking about this. Many trans people always want to downplay this part. Your comment about sexual sin is such a complete statement. Beautiful testimony...just beautiful.
I have shared this with others! Love this❤ where sin abounds, grace abounds more✝️🙏🏼
I absolutely love Laura! I first discovered her testimony on YT. Then I was part of a zoom call thru Stephen Bennett Ministries. She is beautiful inside and out.
Stephen Bennett should be considered as a future guest on your program. He has an amazing testimony of Christ setting him free from sexual identity confusion.
Thank you Allie for having Laura come on your podcast and talk about her amazing and encouraging testimony. God is good! God bless you both!❤️🙏🏼✝️
Thank you for the great truth being revealed and your courage to have this channel❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏✝️✝️✝️
What a powerful testimony!!!! Laura thank you for sharing. The world needs to hear your testimony. Congratulations on getting married.
I love this so much. Laura's story is so inspiring!
I am adopted, which naturally leaves a hole in your identity and is a rejection that leaves you searching for acceptance and belonging. All the men in my life eventually failed me… my dad, my pastor, my husband, etc. I became very sexually promiscuous looking for male affirmation. My identity was tied into these relationships. It was not until I took all the men off the pedestal and put Jesus Christ alone on the pedestal, and understood who my identity in Christ is, that everything fell into place. I believe for many gender and sexually confused, finding their identity in Christ instead of in their gender or sexual orientation is the only true path to healing.
Laura has so much grace for her mom even though she went so much pain. Amazing forgiveness and understanding. Thank you Laura for sharing your journey with us.
I had anorexia and there's a lot of self deception involved in that illness, because you know you don't need to lose weight, but in a way the only way things are okay is if you have to lose weight.
So when the thought comes into your head that you could stop the weight loss at this point, you have to push that thought away and reinforce to yourself that you just have to lose more weight and that if you get complacent you'll gain all the weight back.
After therapy, I would always have to push away the "lies" my therapist and dietician told me and reassert the "truth" that my anorexia told me.
My therapist and dietitian got through (a little bit) the end though. You just can't keep pushing truth away when it keeps getting in your face. I was delusional to a point so some of what they said wasn't going to get through until I got a lot better, I had done such a good job with lying to myself and it's the nature of the illness to be at least a little bit genuinely delusional. But what I wasn't deluded about I couldn't keep not acknowledging.
I also abandoned my faith to a point. I didn't stop believing, but I couldn't keep knowingly harming myself and refuse to change that, and engage with God.
I hope you'll be able to manage your health beyond that condition, I know how terrible it can get for some
Praise God Laura, is great to see you with the Lord and his grace and mercy can do. I have known the Lord for more than 30 years and I have never heard such a transformative powerful testimony. So many people believe that they cannot be transformed. Please continue to share your story there are many godly saints that have known the Lord for a long time but we still don't know much about this particular struggle / sin
Sad, but also full of hope and restoration. God bless you, sister!
What an amazing testimony of God's power and love! Laura, thank you for sharing your story. God is so so good!
This is an amazing testimony. Thank God for transforming her.
It was hard but I left a mental health job after 3.5 years bc I was told if I would not affirm I was being unloving and called a bigot. I wanted to stay to be a light amongst my youth clients and unbelieving staff. I couldn’t push transgender healthcare practices. I wanted to be a living gospel like you shared. I some times regret leaving but love owning my time and not having compromise my beliefs in gender and marriage
What an amazing story of the Lord's incredible healing power! Praise God for this woman. Such an important conversation in these times. May God bless you both, Laura and Allie!
Thank you for sharing this story. Worth hearing and so sad so many people struggling. ❤
Beautiful conversation. Thank you so much for sharing.
What an incredible person to have gone through this journey and suffering and transform her life in the way she has. She is a beautiful person and lovely soul😍🕊️
Wow what an incredible testimony! God Bless you ❤️
It's crazy how people try to convince themselves that things they know are not working are right. Sometimes you are so deep into a terrible series of decisions that you do not want to accept you wish you had done everything differently.
True in a lot of situations
So good! And congratulations, because you speak the truth in love and wisdom.
What a marvelous testimony of God's saving grace! God bless you, Laura, in all the ways you are bringing glory to Him by His transforming work and power of deliverance in your life. Thank you so much for sharing and there were words that you spoke that made me think of things I went through being a lady as well that I'm asking God to help me with.
This is incredible Allie. Thank you for pursuing these hard topics.
Choose completely right sex before marriage empties the soul. It is very sad. Does empty the love tank and it is hard to rebuild. I had sex before marriage with my husband now we are married, but that really caused a huge problem in our marriage and our love life.
So amazing thank you for sharing and what a beautiful woman you are !!
Thank you for sharing your journey ❤ Very honest and inspiring ! God bless you two beautiful ladies .
Laura you are so beatiful. I admire your courage and bravery to yeild your life to the Lord. You have an amazing testimony and it makes me weep at the power of the Lord. Thank you for sharing your story. 🙏
What a beautiful testimony! I know God has a beautiful plan for others to as well. I am praying for true repentance and complete healing for others. God is so good and loving.
And what's beautiful is that God pursued her, she recognised Him and learned about His great love and mercy for her.
Wow we don’t hear enough of these stories EVER! I was a lesbian since teen ages and just like she said, through Jesus and living a life God would want me to have slowly made me have forgiveness in my heart for those I kept such a hatred against. It was mainly men and then my mom and then also Muslims (bcuz I grew up in a muslim country) and slowly becoming a Christian, God made me confront my hatred which was NOT an easy process. Takes a lot of humbling, letting go of the ego really. And Christ made me even gain a perspective and understand those that choose a to be muslims, although praying one day they will find the truth. So it wasn’t even just “men”. It transformed my life in LOTS of ways. Jesus TRULY changes names. I did not understand much at all in the beginning, slowly He showed me why so I don’t just blindly follow people. Thank you GOD, without you, I am just ash.
Laura you are just gorgeous!!! I love your heart and wisdom and influence!
Beautiful testimony, a true miracle...❤❤❤praise be to God.
What an amazing interview. 💔❤️
What a beautiful testimony! Thank you so much for sharing. Gives many parents hope to one day see their kids walk in Gods truths and be restored. Praise God for all he has done and continues to do in your life 🙏🏽💕
our gender is created and selected for each of us by God. specifically for us. and when we learn our identity in Christ it transforms us completely.
there is never a more whole feeling than when we learn who we are in Christ and what all He has done for us. the Epistles describe the work He’s done for us and still doing.
Precious, annointed woman!
Great interview. Laura is a star ✨ What an absolute inspiration. Thank you. Warm greetings from Australia 🦘
A quote, "If you don't affirm this and celebrate this and allow this you are causing someone to kill themselves." , I call BS on those statements full on as a suicide survivor who just celebrated her 15 yr survival anniversary. I can attest whole heartedly and in total truth as an abused woman and as a woman rejected by her family that my suicide attempt was fully, totally, completely, solidly and 100% no one's fault but my own doing and on my own record and all accountable unot me a no one else, not even my abuser nor those who rejected me. ME!
Everyone who commits' suicide is solely responsible no matter the reasons for doing it. The desperate need to escape due to pain of heart, body or soul is something no one can cause to grow to the point of suicide though others can cause the pain to grow, no one can cause the need to escape to grow but the person permitting the inner pondering of it., SELF.
Escape is never the way out of problems, we must journey through them.
Suicide is a decision no one makes for you, therefore no one but you are responsible should it occur, so, if a gender confused person dies by their own hand it is ONLY their own hand that caused their deaths.
People so severely misunderstand suicide facts, the inner deepest facts and no one wants to talk about it. Most all people want to make it "a better place" the dead have gone to with zero knowledge of it to even say and then those who hear the less severe comments when one commits' suicide they do not take it as the danger to the soul that it really is and they believe it to okay and later consider suicide as well. We need to start being honest about it. Satan LOVES how we talk about suicide in these ways, and we better stop.
WOW!!! Both parts of this conversation were incredible. Bring Laura back sometime! Great stuff!
Laura, you are strong and beautiful. Wishing you deep healing and happiness ❤
What a beautiful testimony, Laura! Thank you for sharing your remarkable story. It will encourage a lot of people!! ❤
Grateful for seeing her mother with new eyes. 🎉
Oh Laura ....cried for the pain of your journey. 😢 Your faith now is beautiful and i pray you experience continued love and peace ❤
amazing testimony of God's redemption and affirmation of who we are in Christ.
PRAISE THE LORD!!! What a joy to see the transformation and the renewal of the mind. ❤
Praise the Lord! God bless you Laura!
Great interview, lovely guest.
I was a Confused Abused And Neglected Unwanted Problem Foster Child Growing Up.
I'm so glad I'm not a child growing up now, in today's Society. Because they would have made a bad situation even worse. I hate all the bad things that happened to me as a child growing up. But if I was born now??? They would have made everything a 100 times worse. 🖤
Hmmm I thought Laura taught Bible study as Jake and that she was asked by a Pastor if she was really a man or a woman?
Maybe it was some one else I’m thinking of?
