A minor who was convinced to transition from female to male by medical professionals has won a $2 million payout.
Fox Varian, who had a double mastectomy in 2019 at age 16, sued her psychologist, Kenneth Einhorn, in the Westchester County Supreme Court of New York.
The court record is sealed, but at least one reporter attended the trial.
The case marks what might be the first detransition payout targeting doctors who mutilated a minor who can’t legally make major life decisions, such as drinking alcohol, adopting a child, or joining the military, but was seen as old enough to make permanent decisions with their body. However, it doesn't mark the last minor transition lawsuit.
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

I’m particularly pleased that the therapist and the surgeon were liable in this lawsuit.

If therapists and surgeons are held culpable then they will - eventually- exercise better bare https://t.co/5yCoCbKOsS

I hope this inspires more lawsuits against these butchers who call themselves "healthcare providers".

There will be thousands of court cases of children who were mutilated by evil doctors, modern day Mengeles.

The schools, psychologists/psychiatrists and state officials who facilitated this will pay dearly too. https://t.co/1FrB6M50Tj
Plaintiff’s lawyers are going to end “gender change” surgeries on minors. This was a New York jury. Can you imagine when some of these cases get to red state jurors? Someone is going to get hit with nine figures in damages. Doctors who did these surgeries should lose licenses too https://t.co/QV9kRqZO71

In coming years the floodgates will open as more go to trial. What was done to these kids is a crime against humanity. An unforgivable evil that must be extinguished from the earth. Never again. The damage these kids carry is heartbreaking. https://t.co/I7RlQSbdNH
