Katie Coblentz grew up a tomboy—Spider-Man, catch with dad, boys’ clothes. As a teen, she felt like a misfit and found fleeting belonging in the LGBT community. In college, YouTube videos of joyful ‘trans men’ promised freedom from her anxiety and pain.

She transitioned—testosterone, surgery, a new name. The illusion worked. Until one day, she looked in the mirror… and saw a woman.

That moment unraveled everything.

Katie began the hard road of detransition and now speaks out against the trans ideology that nearly destroyed her. Her story is a warning—and a call to truth.
