Jade Martin / “Atreuz” and transgender people

Jade Martin is an American streamer and ex-transgender activist. Martin began a medical transition as an adult, taking masculinizing hormones from age 18 to 21 before making additional gender changes.

Background

Jade Martin was born in ~2000 and grew up in California. Martin began a social transition in high school and used the name Jaden.

In a profile by Sarah Vaci, Martin said:

“As soon as I was enrolled in school, I was outcasted by my peers and picked on for my appearance. The bullying intensified after getting an early period at 9 years old. I developed quickly and my weight (not at all what is considered ‘overweight’ now) was a target to girls, boys, doctors, and teachers. […] So I found comfort, away from my peers, in online spaces where I was introduced to the idea that I could simply become a boy. I was around 11-12 and I started binding at age 12 with bandages. […] I was on testosterone from 2018 to 2021. After being groomed by and sexualized by older men online, I met my first real boyfriend (now ex). Meeting him had made me realize how miserable I was living in this coping mechanism. […] I had to have surgery. I was going through a lot… then that’s when I found out my ex had a double life and was cheating on me with another woman. My dream was crushed again, but at least now I’m healthy enough to achieve those dreams one day. God redirected my path and I thank him everyday.”

Ex-trans activism

In 2023, Martin began getting involved in ex-trans activism, doing interviews with Michael Scott (“Fabian Liberty”), Benjamin Boyce, Chloe Brockman (“Chloe Cole”), and Buck Angel. Martin has been profiled by Sarah Vaci, Independent Women, and Evie magaine.

Martin was a signatory on a 2024 amicus curiae brief prepared by Terry Lee Fowler and presented to the US Supreme Court in US v. Skrmetti, a case challenging Tennessee’s ban on trans healthcare for young people.
