HARTFORD, CONNECTICUT: The video footage of transgender assistant health secretary, Rachel Levine admitting that she is happy she waited until after having her own children before starting gender reassignment treatment. The video resurfaced amid the backlash that she is getting for suggesting that such treatments should be normalized.
The first openly transgender government official began her transition in 2011 when she was 54. She had already been married for 23 years and raised two children, both of whom are now young adults, and says she is glad she waited so long because it allowed her to have a family.
'I have no regrets'
In the video, which dates back to 2019, Levine gave a speech about gender care in which she said, "I have no regrets because if I had transitioned when I was younger, then I wouldn't have my children. I can't imagine a life without my children."
Despite her own experience, she thinks it should become easier for other children to start treatment as teenagers, even if it costs them their ability to have their own children later in life. In the speech, she said teenagers today aren't 'willing to do that'. "I don't know if I were 15 today if I would take so long."

Just evil. And koo-koo. She is pushing to allow children to have surgeries that will prevent them from ever having children.
