I understand why the transphobes do it and the normies who don't know any better, but we as an LGBTQ+ community should not be legitimizing this.

Legitimately every single detrans person I have ever encountered has been one of two archetypes:

1) "I used to delude myself into thinking I could be a man/woman but actually it's impossible I was deluded just like all trannies are YWNBAW/M and neither will I and we both need daddy trump to come and genocide us for the unforgivable sin of being a disgusting tranny, praise god"

Or

2) "I used to be trans but stopped because it was scary and society hates us, I have nothing against other trans people, but society scared me into detransing"

Neither of these are healthy approaches to the issue. They are both forms of coercion and mental illness. Not a single detrans I've ever encountered in my life has EVER simply said honestly, "I was wrong about being trans, I personally am a man/woman and feel better staying that way, but other trans people are valid". We should not be granting legitimacy to this nonsense.

are you talking about actually meeting detrans people irl or just about things you see online
with the first of course you're going to see those because they have that megachurch megabux money from grifting

Good post but borderline pointless I'm afraid. People do not typically approach transitioning from a place of "what will make me self reliant and stable" It's "what will make me feel better about myself" which gets them caught up in all sorts of terms like fembrained and male brained, fighting over poorly defined labels to validate their poorly defined identities. Most of them are beyond hope, take a good look at the behavior of the board and find why it manifests. It'll may save you stress.

veery trvky reply! asking yourself will this
> make me self reliant and stable
is damn near the most important question about transition.
If you transition and end up worse than you were before, things become very bleak very quick.

detrans voices are just as important as trans voices. but yea i notice a lot of them like former ftms will say "i realized im not a boy and never was" or weird identity stuff. personally i transitioned for the medical changes so i could get boobs, look hotter and get a pussy and enjoy the changes that gave me in my dating life. i also enjoy my mental better on estrogen. theres not really any kind of weird identity thing attached outside of the changes in my physical reality. i think there is mental illness attached to things like "i realizer im a girl!"

What if Im both archetypes and also the 3rd archetype I admit transition was wrong for me?
