  Speaker 1: Charlemaine say the game don't get shape man, you are
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: a donkey today does not discriminate. I might not have
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: the song of today, but I got the donkey that.
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: So if you ever feel I need to be a
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: donkey man the practice club bitches, please don't keep today today, Well,
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: donkey today for Friday August twenty six. Let me make
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: sure it's Friday August twenty six years it is goes
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: to an Australian woman named Jay Landinos. She is thirty
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: one years old, and she is swing a psychiatrist for
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: approving agender transition after just one meeting. Yes, she transitioned
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: to mail before realizing it was a mistake, and now
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: she's suing a psychiatrist for approving her female to male
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: hormone treatment after just one meeting. You know, we are
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: always told in life to measure twice, so we only
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: have to cut once. I would think, you know, nowhere
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: would that be more true than when someone is contemplating
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: gender reassignment surgery. I know you might be thinking, well,
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: it's female to male hormone treatment, so nothing to be cut.
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: But that's not true, because Jay has upseted to psychiatrist
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: approved been to transition, and the fact that the psychiatrist
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: signed off on two surgeries to remove her breast and uterus,
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: so therefore things do get removed. Okay, now let me
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: explain some details. It was nineteen when she first met
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: doctor Patrick Toohey, a better psychiatrist and sitting in Australia.
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: Jay isn't that thirty one, and she was introduced to
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: the doctor determined and she was suitable for transition. Now
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: this is what the specialist, doctor Patrick two. He wrote
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: that Jay was very young and needed throughout psychiatric work
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: up before embarking on her home treatment. That's the clinical
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: way of saying. She was too young to be doing this,
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: and she might change her mind later, So don't let
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: her do this until she's old enough to make a
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: more educated choice, because right now she could be making
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: a permanent decision based off temporary feelings. But after his
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: first meeting with the team, too He concluded that Jay
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: suffered from gender dysophia and was fit for testosterone therapy.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: I had to look up with that dysforfia. Word was
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: that's just I think, and now I don't think it's
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: this morphield. It says dysphoria. They don't say this morphia.
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: It might be dysmorphia. Maybe they missed him. I don't know,
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: but I had to look up what that was. But
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: that's just the clinical way of saying, she feels like
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: she's in the wrong body. There is a mismatch between
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: their biological sex and their gender identity. Now, well, next
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: time Jay went to go see doctor Twey, she told
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: him she was eager to undergo top surgery to have
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: her breast surgically removed as part of her transition. So
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: Tooey approved the double missectomy and they got rid of
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: the tas okay. A month later, Jay met with Twoey
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: for the third and final time to discuss having her
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: uterus removed. Now, the doctor, according to the lawsuit, wrote
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: that he could find no reason to not proceed with
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: the h director me, so she got cleared to get
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: her power you removed. Now. Nearly a decade later, Jay,
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: who no longer identifies as a male, is suing the
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: doctor for professional negligence. She says it's the doctor's fault
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: for green lighting harmone therapy even after she told him
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: she suffered from sociophobia, and she alleges that he was
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: negligent and not reding, not recommending she get a second
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: opinion ahead of her hysterectority. Okay, even though the doctor
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: strongly recommended that Jay seeks social and family therapy, but
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: Jay chose not to listen. She chose not to heed
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: that recommendation, and the doctor still gave her what she
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: asked for. Now Jay is suing. Wow. Jay said in
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: twenty sixteen, four years after the surgery, when she started
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: receiving psychiatric treatment from another doctor, is when she came
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: to the realization that she should not have undergone the
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: harmone therapy are the first and second surgery. So let
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: me get this crap. At nineteen, you come to me
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: as a woman, tell me that you're really a man.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: I tell you go talk to a psychiatrist. You don't
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: take my recommendation, and then persist to insist on the surgery,
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: and later on in life when you don't when you
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: do go seek psychiatric treat me to realize you not
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: who you thought you was, and you was who you
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: was before you got here and decided to have surgery.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: Now it's my fault. You want to assume me. In
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: the court documents, Jay argued that who he should have
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: realized she might be autistic and referred her for further treatment.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: How the hell am I supposed to know if you're autistic?
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: You're asking too much of me as a doctor. Because
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: truth be told, I'm sure it's a bunch of doctors
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: when people come in for gender transitions. They would like
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: to diagnose a lot of these cases at psychological disorders.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: But if they did that, I guarantee you it would
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: be a problem. I guarantee it would be people complaining
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: saying I should be able to go into a doctor
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: and request the sex change without a doctor labeling me
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: as having a mental disorder, when the reality is we
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: all know nobody should be making such a permanent decision
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: at that of an age. Come on, people, nineteen years
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: old and you want to renovate the whole car Jay
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: said in a statement that the hormones and surgeries that
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: she requested left her suffering from injuries, disabilities, and complications,
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: including early menopause and anxiety and depression, impaired psychological functioning,
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: and diminished capacity for employant employment. Man, your requested this,
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: You requested this, and now did you change your mind?
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: You want to suit a doctor who did the surgery.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: Come on, man, I waited there a little more. Jay
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: felt when she was seventeen something was wrong with her
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: because she was attracted to girls. So she went online
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: and read about gender dysphoria. So she decided that what
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: she that's what she had, and she must be transgender
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: because of the discomfort that she had in her body.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: Or maybe you're just a lesbian, Maybe you're just attracted
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: to women. The fact that she thought the source of
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: her discrestion was not being a man is only because
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: she had the option, you know, to be other things.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: We might be throwing too much at these kids. We
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: may have to shorten the menu a little. I mean, damn,
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: when you present kids with sixty eight different gender identities.
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: I can see how this can be confusing to some.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: But one thing's for sure. Two things for certain. The
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: doctor should not be liable for any of this. Jay,
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: you made a choice, and that's what life is a
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: matter of choices, and every choice you make makes you
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: So what's the solution. I don't know. I just know
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: that when you're nineteen, regardless of it's a sex change
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: or any other matter, just give yourself some time before
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: you rush to any life altering decisions. Okay, I'm reading
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: the timeline and some of these choices into me. None
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: of this should have happened this fast, But you have
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: to live with your choices. We are what we choose
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: to be. Some choices we regret, Some will haunt us forever.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: Some choices we're proud of. I know you're living with
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: regret right now, but that's life. I don't have anything
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: else other than you know. This is a prime example
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: of why you shouldn't make permitted decisions based off temporary feelings.
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: Please give Jay landon gadinos to sweet Sounds and the Hamletones.
• 6:51

  Speaker 1: y'all think that. Do y'all think the doctors should be
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: held liable in the situation? No, no, not at all.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: Oh no, she made choices exactly, not at all. All right. Well,
