These are not hard concepts to grasp: 1) It is immoral to perform life-altering optional surgery on someone who isn’t old enough to order a beer, and 2) it’s unethical to pit males against females in competitive sports. As obvious as those concepts are, we’ve seen a truly disturbing number of woke folk and leftist politicians happily flout any sense of decency.
Psychologist Kenneth Einhorn and surgeon Simon Chin just found out that the backlash against extreme gender ideology has arrived, however, and that it’s time to put a stop to some of the insanity we’ve been seeing. They thought it was perfectly fine to conduct a double mastectomy on a female who thought she might be male… when she was 16.
They were wrong — it’s anything but fine. Now it’s time to pay up:
A 22-year-old woman who identified as a boy in her teen years won a $2 million decision in a landmark lawsuit against New York doctors accused of pushing a double mastectomy on her when she was a minor.
Fox Varian had the life-altering surgery when she was just 16-years-old — getting approval from a psychologist and a surgeon — both of whom a jury found liable of medical malpractice on Jan. 30.
Varian, now 22 and considered a “detransitioner,” was awarded $1.6 million for past and future pain and suffering, and an additional $400,000 for future medical expenses — in the first detransitioner malpractice lawsuit in the nation to go to trial and win.
Now that is justice.
Chloe Cole, another prominent detransitioner who has been sounding the alarm about the dangers of some of the “gender affirmation” procedures for minors, lauded the lawsuit and the outcome:
Varian V Einhorn is the first detransitioner lawsuit to reach a verdict, and Fox Varian was awarded $2M
Even better is that this was in New York!
I am going to trial as well against my doctors with @Liberty_Ctr and this gives me even more hope that I will get justice for myself pic.twitter.com/TpbuFvFwuQ

Because it’s the first successful verdict in a case like this, it’s likely causing medical professionals who make gobs of money off of mutilating children to be very, very nervous just about now:
It’s a historic ruling — not just because of the dollar amount, but because Varian is the first detransitioner to take a medical malpractice case before a jury verdict. And her win could have a ripple effect across the medical field.
The actual trial record is sealed, but reporter Benjamin Ryan attended for the entire three weeks and wrote an extensive report for The Free Press. He said the proceedings were “riveting and at times devastating” and “disturbing.”
Varian’s mother said the professionals just kept “pushing and pushing” for the surgery, and they made her fear that her daughter would commit suicide if it wasn’t performed. That is a story we’ve heard all too many times before.
The gender ideology extremists seem to be awfully quiet about this one, notes Ryan:
Yes, it’s almost total crickets over on Bluesky about the nation’s first detransitioner lawsuit reaching a verdict in the plaintiff’s favor. Usually Blueskyites at least put up a fight to try to dismiss the news or attack the messenger.
They’re acting like this never happened. https://t.co/NT5WY7z4v7

This is an outstanding verdict, and hopefully a sign of long overdue reckoning in the medical field.
