In recent years, however, Jennings has repeatedly made headlines for health problems that offer counter-evidence to the narrative that medicine can seamlessly transition adults or children from one sex to the one they supposedly truly belong to.

A botched penile inversion vaginoplasty that Jennings underwent at the age of 17 required multiple corrective surgeries and left him with greatly diminished sexual function.

One of Jennings’ surgeons, Marci Bowers, later went public with hesitancy toward the World Professional Association for Transgender Health’s standards of care for children, arguing that the practice of giving 11-year-olds testosterone blockers and 13-year-olds estrogen treatments has made it impossible for doctors to later perform a traditional penile inversion vaginoplasty on them, as doctors are required to take skin grafts in order to have enough tissue, often leaving patients with poor outcomes.

This is exactly what happened with Jennings. His surgery was performed with stomach lining material to make up for the lack of available tissue. Soon after the surgery, his “neovagina” split apart. Three corrective surgeries over a period of years were subsequently performed.

“I think there was naivete on the part of pediatric endocrinologists who were proponents of early [puberty] blockade thinking that just this magic can happen, that surgeons can do anything,” said Bowers in an interview with Abigail Shrier, the author of Irreversible Damage: The Transgender Craze Seducing Our Daughters.

“But honestly,” Bowers continued, “I can’t sit here and tell you that [people who began transitioning as children] have better — or even as good — results. They’re not as functional. I worry about their reproductive rights later. I worry about their sexual health later and ability to find intimacy.”

Following the initial surgeries, Jennings gained over 100 pounds through binge eating and experienced a range of mental health disorders. Jennings’ mother, Jeanette, deflected theories that those difficulties were caused by the penile inversion vaginoplasty and argued that Jazz had long experienced mental health issues.

Jeanette Jennings claimed that Jazz’s happiest time in life had been during the year following the first surgery, though she acknowledged that Jazz had spiraled thereafter into a depressive state and could barely get out of bed in the morning.

Season eight of the TLC show on Jennings’ life, I Am Jazz, is now airing, and in a recent episode Jennings has an alarming conversion with his mother. In a clip that has gone viral over the past week, Jennings says that he is completely broken and unable to be his true self. One has to wonder if a lifetime of hormone treatments and surgeries intended to alter his appearance might have something to do with that.

Jazz explains to his mother that he keeps “going back to negative” and that he “can’t get out of [his] head.” He explains: “It just doesn’t stop.”

Jazz’s mother attempts to stop the breakdown and convince Jazz, who in a recent episode went on a date with a woman, that everything will be alright. “It’s okay, give me a hug. I know what you’re going through. We’ve been there before,” she says.

Jazz then comes clean with the truth.

“I just want to feel like myself, like that’s it. I don’t care,” he said. “All I want is to be happy and feel like me, and I don’t feel like me, ever.”

Take note of what Jennings says here: “I don’t feel like me, ever.”

Jeanette, for her part, tries to dissuade Jazz from introspecting too deeply. “But the more you’re talking about yourself, it gets harder. You’re digging in and it’s making you put a magnifying glass on what’s already difficult as it is. So this is hard for you, I know. And we don’t want to push it.”

Jeanette, of course, has made millions off of Jazz’s transition and become famous for it. She now runs her own organization, the TransKids Purple Rainbow Foundation, which “aims to enhance the lives of transgender and gender non-conforming youth and their families.”

Jeanette has adamantly supported Jazz’s “transition” and pushed Jazz to incorporate every available mode of transition to appear as much as possible as though he is a woman.

A recent clip from the TLC series shows Jeanette pressuring Jazz to dilate his “neovagina” every day. Jeanette says that if Jazz doesn’t do it, she will “wring [Jazz’s] neck.” Men who undergo a penile inversion vaginoplasty are expected to dilate the open wound for over two hours a day for up to two years post-surgery and for shorter periods of time for the rest of their lives. Otherwise, the wound can shrink.

Jeanette Jennings said she has woken up Jazz in the middle of the night and demanded that he dilate his “neovagina.” She said, “I have woken Jazz out of a dead sleep and taken the dilator and put the lubrication on it and said, ‘Here, you take this and you put it in your vagina, if not, I will.’”

Jazz’s hesitancy to partake in this perhaps says something about his enthusiasm for undergoing a vaginoplasty.

Another piece of evidence that Jennings is not as gung-ho as his mother on being surgically crafted into an imitation of a woman is his recent assertion that genitalia should not matter.

“If we didn’t define someone’s life based on what’s between their legs, things would be so much different,” Jazz says during episode five of this latest season of his show, which aired on Feb. 21.

Of course, by having Jazz undergo a series of four genital surgeries in an attempt to make him appear like a woman, Jeannette Jennings has done exactly that.

The medical issues that Jazz Jennings has encountered show just how disastrous gender transition is medically. It’s ironic because Jeanette Jennings meant for Jazz’s transition to inspire thousands of children to join Jazz in altering their sex.

But could the unintentional effect be greater than that? Jazz’s recent statement “I don’t feel like me, ever” raises the specter that Jennings, despite being the poster child for transgenderism and having had this pushed on him since the age of 2, may himself be secretly devastated by what has been done to him.

If Jazz regrets transitioning, Jeanette Jennings’ goal to advance transgenderism through Jazz could majorly backfire.

Can't believe they are still allowed to post transphobic garbage like this, they need to be shut down.

I remember someone here posting the ad for the show w that clip. People just pretended it wasn't an issue and continued to push for puberty-blockers. I just assumed they didn't do the surgery. I can't believe what this woman has done to her kid. Munchausen by proxy in one of the worst ways.

Minnesota House passes "trans refuge" legislation after late-night debate

BY WCCO STAFF, CAROLINE CUMMINGS

UPDATED ON: MARCH 24, 2023 / 4:31 PM / CBS MINNESOTA

ST. PAUL, Minn. -- The Minnesota House early Friday morning approved a bill supporters say will make Minnesota a "refuge" for transgender people.

The vote was 68-62 and came following hours of debate on other legislation, which stretched the floor session from Thursday afternoon until after 5 a.m. Friday morning.

MINNESOTA HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES

"In the staggering rise of anti-transgender and anti-LGBTQIA2S+ legislation by extremist Republicans, Minnesota is a beacon of hope for trans and gender-expansive children and their families," Rep. Leigh Finke, DFL-St. Paul, said. "The passing of the Trans Refuge bill will send a strong message to the trans community that they are loved, supported, and protected here in our state."

Finke, the bill's author, is the first openly transgender person elected to the Minnesota Legislature.

Democrats pushing the legislation forward say it will protect trans patients and providers of gender-affirming care from legal action in other states where such care is banned or restricted, creating a safe haven in Minnesota. It's structured similarly to a proposal that passed the House earlier this week that works as a "shield law" for people seeking and providing abortions at a time when laws vary after the fall of Roe v. Wade.

"We have a responsibility to create more space for our communities to live their fullest authentic lives without fear of violence, rejection, abuse or political attack," Finke said.

The legislation prohibits enforcing out-of-state subpoenas, arrest warrants and extradition requests for people from other states who sought treatment that is legal in Minnesota. It also bars complying with court orders elsewhere to remove children from their parents' custody for getting gender-affirming care.

This comes as states across the country are targeting gender-affirming care. Eight now prohibit it for minors, including Iowa and South Dakota, according to an analysis by the Human Rights Campaign. Some policies are blocked in court and other states are considering their own bills.

Republicans ahead of the floor debate held a news conference condemning Democrats' "transgender health care sanctuary state," arguing it runs afoul of the U.S. Constitution and puts children at risk.

They raised concern about the long-term impact of certain treatments.

"House File 146 undermines parental rights and most concerningly has zero guardrails to protect our kids," said Rep. Peggy Scott, R-Andover. "It allows children, regardless of age, to receive radical medical treatments.

Many medical groups, including the American Academy of Pediatrics, support youth access to care, which doctors say means something different to each patient and family.

Dr. Angela Kade Goepferd, medical director of Children's Minnesota's Gender Health Program, told reporters that gender-affirming care that involves surgical procedures is "incredibly rare" for minors under 18 and physicians at Children's Minnesota do not perform such surgeries.

"The vast majority of gender-affirming care is medication-based or supportive services for families," she said.

The legislation has to pass the Senate before it would move to Gov. Tim Walz, who intends to sign it. It cleared its final committee in that chamber Friday afternoon, setting it up for a floor vote.

Walz recently signed an executive order designed to protect gender-affirming care.

Finke told reporters on Thursday ahead of the floor vote that the governor's action recognizes the "urgency" around threats to trans people, but enshrining protections into law makes them stronger.

"It's just absolutely crucial that we keep doing this work to build these protections and not worry about what could happen in the future. We need a law behind it," she said.

A separate bill cleared a House committee Friday that would expand the state's hate crime law to include bias against a person for their gender identity or gender expression.

Thirty years ago Minnesota was the first state to expressly prohibit discrimination against trans people in its Human Rights Act.

Voters next year might also get a chance to enshrine protections for people from discrimination in the state constitution.

The proposed Equal Rights Amendment would add language to the Minnesota Constitution to say that "equality under the law shall not be abridged or denied" on account of race, color, creed, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, age, disability, ancestry, or national origin.

These were female to male trannies, so they made a dick

You know those plastic tubes that you cut open that hold cookie dough or sausage? The dicks looked like those, some with a little balloon knot at the end. They were HUGE too, but looked monstrous

Oh yeah, they also grafted all of the skin off of the persons thigh to "make" the dick. No skin on their entire thigh.

It's some sick Frankenstein stuff

Meanwhile trannies with she-cocks can get laid easy AF.

Apparently "she" recently had the dick removal surgery and everyone was shocked that I didn't find the procedure as "amazing" as they did. It made me viscerally ill to hear about it. Just absolutely disgusting self mutilation and I have no problem with the person.

"Nothing to see here! My child is just mentally ill! Good thing I allowed zher to make life-altering decisions at FIVE!"

Also the entire article shows why those transgender suicide statistics are so important. Suicide is just as likely if they pass as their preferred gender 100% of the time compared to if they don't pass ever. It's almost like butchering someone's body to help with a mental issue doesn't fix the problem...🤔

This was malpractice of the worst kind to do this to a little kid. This is going to go down in the history books as a time the medical profession failed to follow basic ethics. This poor kid is 100 percent going to kill himself in the next ten years.
