      I know more about this than you do, having come out the other side of it. My trans lady partner thinks you don’t know what you’re talking about and are doing women like her a disservice by ignoring anything that criticizes the current model.

      You really, really don't, and you've displayed your ignorance this entire time. Being detrans doesn't give you any more insight about trans people than "ex-gays" have about gay people If you started listening to trans ppl & actual experts, you'd be much better informed 1/2

      I’m not anti-trans. I’m deeply concerned that the current treatment model isn’t working. Why is this fine? Why can’t we do more to help trans patients? If studying detransition is harmful to trans activism, something is off. Detransition cases teach us important things abt this

      Have you really fully considered the possibility that it is working, the main issue is many people who need treatment still aren't getting it, and you were just unlucky and/or made a mistake?

      A medical procedure shouldn't be the mistake of the patient when the doctors should verify medical necessity.

      All diagnoses have a false positive rate.

      Blaming the victim in a case like this is ridiculous, this is a form of medical malpractice with the fault being passed to the patient automatically by nature of the condition, fuck that. Providers of trans healthcare can and should be doing better, stop resisting progress

      If we can do better why is everyone so resistant to just hearing and learning more? The automatic doubt and disowning of all of us is creating these falsely low rates of detransition because NO ONE IS COUNTING US.

      They counted and you didn't like the numbers. I'm all for them counting again, more carefully, but I expect you not to like the numbers then, either. You'll tell me there's a real, hidden number out there somewhere. Because you'll only believe a result that agrees with you.

      They didn’t count me. Show me the proof behind number you’re so positive is accurate.

      You don't seem to understand how research works. They count a sample, and find a rate. There's something called "error" which means the extent to which you can be confident the rate generalizes to the fully population.

          There have been numerous studies of trans care that showed a less than 1% regret/detransition rate, centered around AMABs who returned to the closet due to stigma. A few have shown something a bit higher, 1-5% or so.

          While these are each, individually, imperfect studies, taken together it's unreasonable to expect a new study will find huge uncounted numbers of detransitioners.

          And there's.something called sampling bias.

          Especially when the research is being done by someone who will benefit from "positive" results. It's a known fact that journals don't publish negative results. It's a known fact that you can't see your own errors and one sentence saying there are no conflicts doesn't correct bias
