Alpha News: Author of ‘The Detransition Diaries’ urges lawmakers to reject ‘heartbreaking and unethical’ gender ideology

Kallie Fell, co-author of the book "The Detransition Diaries," will be meeting with Minnesota legislators this week to warn them about the "the lie of gender medicine."

Authors of the book “The Detransition Diaries” say the state has become a flashpoint in the ongoing debate about “transgender medicine”—and they’re bringing their message this week to Minnesota lawmakers.

Kallie Fell is the co-author. She is also a perinatal nurse and the executive director of the Center for Bioethics and Culture. She joined Liz Collin on a recent episode of her podcast.

Fell told Collin that she never thought in her lifetime she’d be “defending the idea that humans are created either male or female and one cannot transform or transition through medicine to another. I never thought that that would be a stance that I would have to take, but here I am,” she said.

“I’m joining the Minnesota Catholic Conference and the Minnesota Family Council to meet with legislators to discuss a lot of different issues in the bioethical sphere, bioethical issues including third-party reproduction, IVF, surrogacy, and … transgender medicine which I like to put in quotes because I don’t think there’s any such thing, you can’t change sex,” Fell said.

She believes the “tides are going to turn,” and President Donald Trump’s inaugural address on Monday was an early sign of that change.

“As of today, it will henceforth be the official policy of the United States government that there are only two genders—male and female,” Trump said.

Children and transgenderism

Fell points out how Minnesota is among 13 states considered “trans refuge states” for children.

Fell explained, “We’re just in a weird time in our life. For the last 25 years, the Center for Bioethics and Culture has been speaking out and educating the public through lawmakers, through policymakers, through just general public moms, dads … when we learned several years ago that kids were being, or children were being rendered infertile because they’ve been offering puberty blockers and hormones to try to change their sex, we decided to step in on this issue as well.”

Prison policies

Alpha News has been documenting the ongoing controversy surrounding the Minnesota Department of Corrections’ trans policy allowing biological men to be housed in the state’s only women’s prison in Shakopee.

“It breaks my heart when I see the unfairness that’s happening in schools and the, not just unfairness, but the safety issues of having men inside of girls’ locker rooms, men inside of female spaces, men inside of shelters, domestic violence shelters, and in women’s prisons. It’s our duty to protect women … get a hold of your legislators, get a hold of the people in Congress and let them know how you feel. It’s absolutely heartbreaking and completely unethical,” Fell said.
