Not all transphobic detrans people are "ex-trans". Some detrans people develop transphobic beliefs because transphobia is normalized in many detrans support spaces. You can't tell whether a detrans person is "ex-trans" based on their beliefs alone.

Those are good points. In my research on ex-gay people and conversion therapy, it does sound like most people involved experience same-sex desires they are trying to suppress. Many were people who grew up very Christian and had little contact w/ gay communities.

A lot of ex-gay people can't find a way to be both gay and Christian, so they suppress their sexuality and embrace a religious identity. I think some "ex-trans" detrans people do something similar with feminism instead of Christianity. That was part of my deal.
