Simon Amaya Price

The Harrison Tinsley Show Episode 7

Simon Amaya Price is a desister, writer, and speaker, dedicated to winning the fight against gender ideology in a way that aligns with classical liberal values. At 14, Simon came out as transgender, but about 3 years later, desisted. In October 2024, as part of a class he was taking, Simon planned to host an event titled Born in the Right Body: Desister and Detransitioner Awareness at Berklee College of Music, where he graduated cum laude last December at age 20. However, after facing threats, harassment, and bullying from classmates and administrators alike, his event was cancelled by Berklee's Vice President.
Undeterred, he went on to host the event at MIT last November, to an audience of over 100. Since then, Simon has written articles for The Boston Globe and local advocacy groups, testified in favor of a bills in states across the country, appeared on podcasts, given talks in communities across New England, and been featured in news articles by the Daily Mail, the Boston Herald, and The Daily Signal, among others. Simon looks forward to a career in politics.
