Advocate and former trans child Chloe Cole says she lost all of her friends from within the transgender community upon her decision to de-transition.
There is now a growing number of countries which have moved away from the gender-affirming model of care that Australia uses when it comes to minors questioning their gender.
“These people viciously went after me just for talking about the grief that I was going through,” Ms Cole told Sky News host Peta Credlin.
“As difficult as it was, especially in those early stages, dealing with the bullying from this community that had once accepted me ... it’s helped prepare me to go forward publicly with my story.”
