Want to remind folks not to overgeneralize too much from my detrans/ex-trans experience. People are complicated and diverse and can get into toxic ideologies for all kinds of reasons.

Maybe I'm being overly anxious cuz in the past people used my story as a detrans woman to invalidate trans people and I don't ever want to be involved with that kinda bullshit again if I can help it.

It's important for me to name what happened to me as conversion therapy/ex-trans self-denial but it's also important for me to emphasize giving people space to figure out who they are. Being deprived of self-determination has made me value it even more and want to promote it.
