A “detransitioner” in Australia is suing her former psychiatrist for professional negligence following her gender transition.
Jay Langadinos underwent hormonal therapy, a double mastectomy, and the removal of her ovaries and uterus between the ages of 19 and 22. Now 31 years old, she no longer identifies as male, citing autism and social phobia as the underlying reasons why she sought transition. According to a court document, Langadinos’s psychiatrist had recommended family and social therapy prior to undergoing surgery, but she did not follow this suggestion. The case will set a precedent regarding where the line should be drawn regarding adults’ ability to consent to transition-related interventions.
