Not exactly a detransitioner as I've never been on hormones (god fucking bless) but for a long time I was neck deep into the Gender Ideology. Specifically on Tumblr. Sure, I never bought into the more extreme ideas of the ideology like how you don't actually need dysphoria to be trans and how questioning the ideology is x-phobic by default, but I thought I was doing the right thing. Letting people be whoever they want is fine, and if they're suffering at the hands of society fighting for them seemed an honorable cause.
On top of that, I've always struggled with body image issues and my identity as a woman and femininity as a whole. I am a victim of grooming. Instead of unpacking all that trauma, genderspecials on the internet will take advantage of it and drag you into their sick cult. I was convinced up until a couple of years ago that I truly was a non-binary genderkweer demi-girl xe/rose/he clursterfuck. It gets to your head and it's so, so hard to break away from it if you don't have a support network and if you have shitty self-esteem. The only people around me were just like me, stuck in this gender echo chamber. Some of them still are- and if they found themselves, good for them. But the moment I started backpedaling, they jumped on me, tried to call me names and accusing me on transphobia. That's when I realized being part of the "community" isn't worth a fucking cent and left.
You ever notice how a majority of troons now are 13 year olds on TikTok, Tumblr, and Twitter? It literally is grooming. It's almost as if they get off to taking advantage of mentally unstable teens- oh wait, they actually do. Trannies can pretend all they want, but now I see through them. AND I know I'm not the only one. I think witnessing Keffals trying to take down this site was the last straw for me, that's when I realized the trans community is a sham cult of narcissists. And ever since then it's been a slow process of realizing that... it's fine to be a woman, actually. I don't need neopronouns or a cult of like-minded drones to feel good in my own skin. I don't need validation from leeches.
I genuinely feel bad for the people who truly suffer from gender dysphoria, it's a sick mental illness that can never be cured because no matter what you do, no matter how much money you throw down the drain and how much support (dopamine) you get on social media... you will never truly be any other sex than the one you were born with. But these people grooming kids and teens? They're not that. They're sick freaks high on hormones, wallowing in their own misery and trying to drag as many people as they can with them. No fucking wonder so many of them end up killing themselves. And if that leads to less children being groomed, I say that's a good fucking thing.
