Speaking of trans kids, Billy claims that he froze some of his spunk as a teenager. Is begging for funds to ship it to Finland in a final attempt to impregnate his pooner wife.
Billy said:
You might remember that my Finnish husband and I have been on a journey to pregnancy through IVF for a few years now. I rarely update you on the matter because it's honestly been quite bleak. So many appointments with endless delays between each one, doctors getting their schedule mixed-up (for real), bureaucracy, straight-up incompetence... but also a lot of support and care from medical staff and our families and friends. A real roller-coaster of emotions that we are relieved to see come to fruition.
Today, without early notice and after months of obstacles, we finally got green-lighted to get the genetic material that I froze as a teenager from Canada to Finland. However, we can't just release the sperm in the Saint-Lawrence River and tell them to swim to the Baltic Sea. Some agent with sunglasses must transport it by plane in a secure container filled with liquid nitrogen, and that's the only part of this whole adventure that isn't covered by either of the countries' healthcare system.
We have about a week to gather a few thousand dollars to cover this trip, so you'll be seeing a few reminders of the ways you can support my work
Yeah, this just sounds like a new lie/scam to bait donations.
As others have mentioned, Billy has claimed multiple times in the past that he was
kicked out or
ran away from home as a young teen - supposedly because his step-father was transphobic.
(I actually think there could be some truth to this. Just rewrite "transphobic" as "homophobic / disgusted by him", and it suddenly makes much more sense considering that Billy was flamingly gay and having sex with older boys/men.)
I don't know Labelle's lore all that well, but his job history was also pretty sparse, right? Before becoming a cartoonist and starting
Assigned Male, he just worked as some kind of low-level teaching assistant? Hard to believe he would be able freeze his sperm as a teenager and keep up with the storage fees for two whole decades - throughout all of the instability in his life. (Wikipedia says he was born on April 22, 1988, making him almost 37 years old atm.)
I'm also a bit confused about his alleged infertility. I thought he didn't get SRS? He's always been the type to say things like "a penis isn't inherently male".

I remember he had a
GoFundMe for unspecified "surgery" several years ago, but the
consensus seemed to be that it wasn't for SRS (since Billy was purposefully vague & never gave any confirmation afterwards). It was probably just a grift.
Maybe he's infertile simply due to HRT, but I'm skeptical. This story stinks.
Semi-related:
I spent a frustratingly long time trying to dig through this thread to find Billy's pre-transition photos. Reposting them in case it's helpful to others in the future:

If these photos are from 2008, then that would mean Billy was age 19-20 at the time.
