Today’s FFS Friday honors Prisha Mosley, a woman who is referred to as a “detransitioner.” Prisha spent several years on testosterone as a minor and had a double mastectomy before getting pregnant with her first child. These days, she is bravely telling her story and testifying before state legislatures in support of bills to protect minors from having done to them what her doctors did to her.

Prisha goes by @detransaqua on X. Please follow her if you’re on X, if you don’t already.

Happy first birthday to Prisha’s son (he turned one on June 3)!

She has testified before several state legislatures, and her story is always moving. This is what she told the Ohio legislature in 2023:

My name is Prisha Mosley. I was 15 years when I began my social transition with a legal name change, change of hair and clothes, and by binding my breasts. Even social transition is dangerous and step one caused permanent damage to my back and ribs.

I already had pre-existing diagnosis of OCD, anorexia, anxiety, depression, and borderline personality disorder when I saw my WPATH certified gender therapist at 17 years old. The trans community found me, vulnerable and naïve, and convinced me that I had been born in the wrong body. They told me that I needed a “letter of recommendation” which would unlock hormones and surgery. So I went online, without my parents, and found the therapist who wrote me my letter in one, 15 minute appointment.

Testosterone was injected into my anorexic body by a pediatric endocrinologist in the same hospital where I was seeing a nutritionist for my severe eating disorder and receiving stitches for cutting.

Testosterone was covered by insurance, and I was assured that if it wasn’t, my doctor could change the codes to make sure it was.

I live in constant regret and frequent sorrow, but the regret is not the worst part. Testosterone had severe side effects which have robbed me of my quality of life. I am in pain. My neck, back, and shoulders burn, and it never stops. My joints ache.

My genitals are painful, and atrophied. I have heard what has happened to them be compared to female genital mutilation, and I agree. Parts of my vagina have atrophied away. It is so small that I can no longer use tampons.

I suffered for years with ovarian cysts for which I went to the ER. I was told that testosterone caused my uterus to fold over. There were signs of uterine prolapse.

I do not know now if I am fertile, but I do not believe I am. I am 25 now, and received help for my mental health and trauma, and I want to have children now. What I do know is that I will never be able to breastfeed. My breasts were removed. I never felt like they belonged to me, and now they are gone. I will go my whole life without knowing how it feels to feed a child, and will suffer forever with phantom breast syndrome instead.

Testosterone also took my singing voice away. I used to be an operatic singer, and I wanted to have a singing career when I was young. I cannot do that with a crushed larynx.

Testosterone causes the overgrowth of many parts of the female body, and what happens on the outside, happens on the inside as well. My wide shoulders match my thickened, widened heart and increased risk for heart attack. I am also at increased risk for stroke. My life has likely been shortened by testosterone abuse.

My trauma and mental illness made me susceptible to two social contagions. It started with anorexia, and was followed by gender ideology. The difference is that my anorexia was not affirmed by my doctors or the adults around me, but my trans-identity was. I was denied liposuction at the same time that my breasts were cut off. Teenage girls are a demographic known for falling victim to social contagions. Please protect others from becoming permanent medical patients like me.

On June 3 of last year, she gave birth to a baby boy via C-section.

She told the New York Post, “I still can’t believe I got pregnant. And I still can’t believe he’s healthy.”

According to the Post:

Mosley is particularly haunted by removing her breasts. She now has painful “rocks” that have formed under her chest, or what her doctor says are milk masses stuck under scar tissue with no outlet because her nipples were reattached and are merely, “decorative. My doctor said some breast tissue was not removed and I have milk coming in as a response to prolactin.”

Instead of a soft pillow for her baby, her chest is hard.

She also gets a lot of abuse from gender zealots. Someone sent her this, in a X thread about Jazz Jennings:

And that’s mild, compared to some of the other abuse she has gotten!

The gender zealots hate all of us, but they hate detransitioners the most because the detransitioners embody the lie that is “gender identity.” They hate Prisha in particular because she has had a baby—something only female bodies can do. There can be no confusion about her sex, notwithstanding the lies the doctors told her.

But none of that is stopping her.

Last month, she sent a letter to Congress, addressing a new bill which highlights the horrific impact of chemicals and surgery on sexual function.

Yesterday, she posted on X, “Listen to detransitioners. We have been through everything people with trans identities have, and then come out on the other side. We experience the back end of trans medicalization and are too disillusioned to lie.”

It’s powerful stuff and Prisha’s is such an important voice in this fight.

Prisha, thank you so much for using your voice. It’s so important that people hear your story. Happy belated birthday to your baby boy, and today’s FFS Friday is for you.
