Oli London, who became famous in 2011 when he announced his 'transition' to a Korean woman, has now returned to his true identity and is converting to Catholicism.

Like so many of those who reject their bodies, his reasons for doing so were profoundly psychological—and today’s “affirming” therapists are profoundly disinterested in getting to the bottom of why so many young people are seeking to physically alter themselves.
