I think voices like hers are making me want to start initiating depoliticized conversations about the best way to help teenagers who express gender dysphoria. We certainly don’t want to end up harming them with unnecessary, or worse, irreversible and damaging medical treatments. The detransitioner community seems to be growing by the day, and it is heartbreaking to hear their stories.
Transition Regret
Published by The Dogwalker
It was the spring of '68 when I was born. There were visible stars in the sky that night, or so I'm told... Some days, I ride my bicycle to the farmer's market, hang my clothes to dry, and sketch or play my guitar into the evening... Other days, I stay indoors, drink too much coffee, eat canned soup, and critique endless reruns of "Law and Order." (It's fun to wonder how all the suspects have such perfect memories as to their whereabouts, or why the longshoreman isn't curious enough to get out of the forklift when confronted by homicide detectives). Do you have friends? (I have come to be leery of dating anyone who has no friends. These people always seem to have some far-fetched conspiracy theory or weird aversion to sunlight...) Bonus points to those who... appreciate a good pun or will give a gratuitous chuckle:) can find humor in not only the absurd, but esp in the mundane :) View more posts
