in World News Formerly ‘Transgender’ Singer from Iconic Metal Band Detransitioning After Curing His ‘Gender Dysphoria’ — ‘I Am a Man, I Always Was a Man’
Keith Caputo, the formerly “transgender” singer of the iconic metal band Life of Agony, says that he is detransitioning and “always was a man.”
Caputo began using the name “Mina” and pretending to be a woman in 2011.
On Tuesday evening, the singer posted a video to Instagram explaining that he is not a woman and has been off of sex change hormones for six or seven years.
“I will be lovingly living in my divine male self,” Caputo said in the video. “I’ve cured my gender dysphoria. It took many years. A lot of walking through the fire, but I rose above my misunderstandings of my soul and my spirit.”
Caputo added, “I’ve been existing in a different version of myself, a more healed version of myself. I’ve done years of trauma work, plant-medicine therapy.”
“I’m making this video because a lot of people are throwing me shade, and saying I look ugly, and I look like a man, and all that shit. And it’s like, ‘Honey, I am a man, I always was a man.’ You’re just not used to hearing authentic people speak.”
