Beyond Gender

I Almost Transitioned - Here’s Why I Didn’t - Sascha Bailey (#26)

04 Aug 2025

Description

What happens when extreme trauma, tech culture, and gender ideology collide? Sascha Bailey's journey from nearly transitioning in Tokyo to becoming a leading voice on male detransition reveals uncomfortable truths about control and identity. Diagnosed with "gender dysphoria" in 10 minutes, prescribed HRT on the spot, Bailey escaped Japan overnight—and slowly unraveled everything he thought he knew. Now expecting a child with his partner, he's decoded the "transmaxing" movement, exposed how tech rewards transition, and discovered why mice in utopia start acting like humans in crisis. His message: "I don't know what gender dysphoria means anymore." As society strips away male social roles, Bailey asks: What happens when you can't be anything, so you try to be someone else?Shownotes
