I appreciate the effort shown

Ok you can argue that “peer support” is the appropriate model for detrans care OR you can serial date ppl you meet through the detrans community. 1/

One thing that’s particularly helpful about utilizing a therapist instead of just friends for healing is yr therapist is not allowed to date you and there’s an ethics board you can call on to defend yr rights as a patient. 2/

Detrans community can be v meaningful for ppl, but it can turn messy, mean girl style, QUICK. Add in ppl dating each other to the mix and it’s p obvious that’s way too volatile a social circle to be depending on for guidance and support. 3/

I’ve had some good times in detrans community, I’ve had a lot of disappointing, surreal and stressful times too. Now luckily I don’t live my life by group consensus so being disappointed by a social circle is not the end of the world for me. 4/
