California 18-year-old Layla Jane is suing Kaiser Permanente Medical Group and Kaiser Foundation Hospitals for performing a double mastectomy on her when she was 13 after she was convinced that she was transgender and had to become male. She says she was struggling with mental health issues, including suicidal thoughts, but instead of treating her for that, the doctors pushed her to gender transition. She’s accusing the hospital system of "intentional fraud and concealment,” in telling her that if she didn’t do it, she’d likely commit suicide; and telling her parents they had a choice between having a live son or a dead daughter.

Her attorney, Harmeet Dhillon, represents another detransitioner who says that same “live son/dead daughter” language was used on her parents, so she suspects they’re just following a script.

Jane now suffers from both physical and emotional problems caused by the unnecessary surgery. She told Laura Ingraham, "I don't think I should've been allowed to change my sex before I was legally able to have sex. I don't think I'm better off for the experience, and I think transitioning just completely added fuel to the fire that was my pre-existing conditions." Dhillon added, "It is impossible for a child to give informed consent, and it is impossible for parents who are not fully informed and with a child that was not properly treated [cannot] also give that consent."

I’m normally not a big fan of lawsuits, but I hope to see a lot more like this one. Too many medical practitioners have let themselves be corrupted by either fear of the radical trans movement or the siren song of big profits from unnecessary surgery and the lifetime of post-operative care needed to deal with it. But nothing forces someone to reassess their bad ideas like a tsunami of big, fat lawsuits.
