It's Detransition Awareness Day Today

[SunsetBeetch]

Jo Bartosch reports on the first ever Detransition Awareness Day and asks Keira Bell why it is so important people hear destransitioners’ stories and experiences.

This looks like a good place to leave Transgender Trend's free downloadable resource for Detransitioners:

To all the detransitioners here .

Thinking of you and wishing you strength.

Share token for the Laura Dodsworth article in The Times July 2020, this was the first time I’d heard about the difficulties particularly young lesbians were facing, and it opened my eyes.

The detransitioners: what happens when trans men want to be women again?

It's very important to hear the stories of detransitioners - by understanding what went wrong for them that we can refine treatment protocols and get treatment to trans kids even sooner.

It is at least good to know how rare detransition is.

Unfortunately, a lot of detransitioners detransition, not because they aren't trans, but because they can't live with the relentless transphobia of the society they live in. Again, we need to hear their stories and tackle transphobia head on.

it would be nice if this thread could be a supportive thread for detransitioners and not derailed...just saying

Agreed. Ignore the obvious derailment attempts.

If anyone would like to drop some links to detransitioners' social media accounts here please feel free.

There's actually so many on YouTube if you do a search. Really sad.

Anyway, these are ones I have watched and recommended.

Great its important these people have a voice. They go through so much and are virtually ignored and treated with contempt by the wider Trans and Queer community.

Thanks for the links ♥️

I'm speechless

solidarity to detransitioners here 💐❤️

thanks all for the video links

In the Em vid, she talks about hope and shame. Hope because she knew she wasn't alone. Shame felt by detransitioners when others delegitimise them by stating they were 'pressured' to detransition. And Hope because she's telling others 'You are not alone' ❤️

Like Em says, it's so important that these stories are getting out there, that your voices are being heard

[quote NonnyMouse1337]Video from Sinead.

[/quote] clear and balanced voice of reason, saying that transition is right for some and not for others. She's NOT calling for less healthcare for her trans brothers and sisters. She IS calling for improved healthcare for children experiencing gender dysphoria so that they don't just have the one treatment option. And therapy for people harmed by transition who want to detransition.

Her solutions and ideas need be heard by the clueless MPs debating 'conversion therapy'

Thank you for sharing your story Sinead & thanks for the link Nonny
