      we don't share our stories to overpower trans men, or anyone else for that matter. we do it because we need our voices to be heard. we need our community just as much as trans men need each other. this is so rude. https://twitter.com/e_urq/status/1279831911431499778 …

      Of course you're not doing it on purpose- you tend to be extremely young and by definition you make decisions without fully understanding the consequences. But, there are very few of you, and your stories are amplified by anti-trans bigots whose goal is to discredit trans people.

      I understand why it's hard to see that, especially for people for whom it was also hard to see what the negative consequences of gender transition might be. Kind of a theme of having trouble understanding the full picture, for you guys, is what I'm saying.

      i see what you're saying. i won't deny that our stories get picked up by people who have their own agenda to discredit trans voices. i know it happens. it's unfair that they do that. i feel like these bigots try to reinterpret our stories-

      You are being very gracious by understanding my point when I was being very grumpy and un-careful in my language, and I appreciate it and will try to respond in kind and be less of an asshole.

      I don't blame individual detransitioners for wanting to share their perspectives and their stories, but I'm very critical of the way those perspectives and stories are shaped and amplified, and the purposes of the people shaping and amplifying.

          of course! it's totally fair to be critical of the way our stories are shared. personally, it's frustrating that my words get misinterpreted to fix agendas that don't even align with my personal values.
