...that transition is not an effective treatment for gender dysphoria, that confronting internalized misogyny is, and (usually) that trans women are predatory fetishists and transphobic politics can protect women from both trans women and their own desire to become men.

I use ex-detransitioner to describe a former member of the detransitioned women's community, regardless of whether they have re-transitioned or not. It's admittedly not the clearest possible descriptor, but the alternatives are very long so that's the shorthand I landed on.

The ex-detransitioned women I spoke to for my Slate piece (which I think is scheduled to publish today but I don't have final confirmation) are both currently using she/her pronouns but do identify as trans.

I also know a re-transitioner irl- he's just a binary trans guy who tried to go back to living as a woman for a while, but never had any particular ideology around that.
