4thWaveNow founder tweeting here today. When my daughter believed she was a man, I sought (like many parents do) detransitioners for wisdom. Their main message to me: We can't "fix" it. We don't have all the answers. Focus on/expose MDs & therapists who let this happen to us.https://twitter.com/turnthetide2018/status/1148241936404365312 …
