I'm a trans person. I've never detransitioned. I've gone to 5 different clinics to have hormones prescribed, changing my provider for geographic and financial reasons. This method would count me as 4 detransitioners.https://twitter.com/lacroicsz/status/1370784291840462850 …
Generously you want to accuse these people of arguing in bad faith, bc the alternative is to insult their intelligence. Rate of changing providers, esp in a vulnerable population with high geo- and financial instability, is not an accurate measure of discontinued treatment.
More accurate measures give us a rate, very conservatively, of 1-3% detransition. It is most commonly not due to disidentification but stigma and social pressure on trans women not to be trans.
Somewhere, L*ttman is reading your tweet, and already scribbling onto a napkin a new research paper about the insidiously infections infliction of Serial Rapid Onset Detransitioning.
For people who claim how dangerous hrt is, that's very callous and shows a lack of respect for one's own body to abandon treatment and come off hrt without assistance when assistance is so available. The doctor would gladly help you safely detransition if needed
Hell I know a guy who moved every 3 months for 6 years straight while he was running a big project. He's probably half of them
Plus in the UK at least most gender clinics discharge you once you have your surgery referral (makes you wonder what happens for non-op trans ppl) so there would also be no way to follow up. I'd love to know too, but transphobic policy makes it that funding-
-doesn't exist to help all the people in the service, let alone collect follow-up data. In a just world we'd all want the same thing here, but transphobes just want everything shut down.
I was on a waiting list in the UK so many years I self financed my surgery & HRT, when the gender identity clinic found out (who had not even prescribed HRT yet) they discharged me. Using the GCs interpretation that means I'm a private detransitioner.
not entirely sure why you found that surprising , having got a diagnosis , started Hormones and had GCS ( and presumably self funded hair removal and if you wanted it voice coaching) what did you need from the GIC ?
