If your cancer was misdiagnosed or resistant to treatment it wouldn't make faith healers or snake oil salesmen right, would it? But that's equivalent to your thinking now.
Respecting your pain, but as someone who cares, I think you're making a mistake, now. People didn't know the truth, they were transphobes. If you even know the truth now you were one of a tiny percentage of people whose dysphoria was misdiagnosed or resisted treatment.

I don't know if its come up in our conversations before, but if there's been a treatment for GD that didn't involve transitioning I would have preferred it. There isn't. Anyone who pretends their is is equivalent to someone who believes in homeopathy, as far as the science goes.

Yes, I get that. But they didn't "know" any deep truth. They were quiet and kind while holding wrong, transphobic beliefs. Those beliefs have been reinforced by your detransition, which isn't your fault and not a big deal bc detransitioners are so rare.

The 2 are separable. It can be hard seeing an early transition person as another gender immediately. My brain once struggled w it, and still does although its much better. The categories male & female are quiet rigid and a lifetime of using them leaves a mark.

Why does it feel like you're: 1) gaslighting 2) being dismissive of a minority that is "so" minor as to not really count. 3) not respecting pain at all; sometimes irreversible for that minority.

It's not a magic spell, my dear. You can't simply say minority-gaslighting-respecting-pain and make someone disappear.
