Ruth Institute Podcast Episode 237 | Doing a 180: Detransitioning Back to Womanhood

The desire to be a mother came to Daisy Strong after she had undergone a double mastectomy and started taking wrong sex hormones. The desire must have been shocking, because she had told herself that she would never get pregnant; she was going to be a man. And as everyone knows, men can’t get pregnant. But if the desire to have children ever did come, she figured she could just use surrogacy. The desire to mother, moved her to reconsider her persona as a man, and move towards transitioning. While she and her husband were looking at surrogacy she realized that she had a body that could get pregnant, if what she had done didn’t prevent her from becoming pregnant.   Daisy Strongin is a 24-year-old woman who detransitioned after identifying as a man for five years. She is a stay-at-home mother and lives with her husband and 2-month-old son in the suburbs of Chicago. Her goal in her activism is to support detransitioners’ voices and to persuade medical and mental health professionals to engage in more ethical and critical conversations surrounding care for gender dysphoria.   Follow Daisy on social media Daisy Strongin on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Dmchadra   Daisy Strongin 🦎 on X @DaisyIsNotHere: https://x.com/DaisyIsNotHere   Dysconnected – The Real Story Behind the Transgender Explosion: dysconnectedmovie.com   Daisy Strong on Allie Beth Stuckey: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4397HJ-lbe8   DETRANS | PragerU documentary: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3yvjFSX0TB0     Dr. J Interviews Movie Producer Don Johnson on Transgenderism in Hollywood: https://youtu.be/7EJIDzNzFk4 |   Carrie Gross joins the Dr. J show to discuss her new book about Mother Mary, and the antidote for modern gender madness https://youtu.be/ijuTRAuAczA    Dysconnected-Bios.pdf (dysconnectedmovie.com): Dysconnected-Bios.pdf (dysconnectedmovie.com)   Press Room – Dysconnected (dysconnectedmovie.com): https://dysconnectedmovie.com/pressroom/   Have a question or a comment?
