About me
I was born female and my journey started with deep unhappiness and discomfort during puberty, made worse by a difficult home life. I transitioned to male for several years, taking hormones and having surgery, believing it was the only solution. I eventually realized my underlying depression and trauma never went away, and my struggle was with self-acceptance, not with being a woman. I stopped testosterone and am now detransitioning, facing permanent changes like infertility. I am now learning to accept my body and heal from my past trauma.
My detransition story
My whole journey with transition started from a place of deep unhappiness and not fitting in. I was born female, but I never felt comfortable with the expectations that came with that, especially during puberty. I hated the development of my breasts and felt a lot of discomfort with my body. I now see this was a mix of puberty discomfort and body dysmorphia, made worse by a difficult home life where I didn't feel accepted for who I was. I was also struggling with depression and anxiety, and I had very low self-esteem.
Looking back, a lot of my desire to transition was a form of escapism. I thought if I could just change my body and become someone else—a man—then all my problems would disappear. I was heavily influenced by what I saw online in trans communities, where transitioning was presented as the only solution to these feelings. I started to believe that my discomfort meant I was transgender.
I began my transition socially, asking people to use a new name and male pronouns. It felt good at first, like I was finally taking control. This led me to pursue medical transition. I took testosterone for several years. The changes were rapid and, for a while, felt affirming. I even got top surgery to remove my breasts. I was convinced this was what I needed to be happy.
But the happiness was temporary. The underlying issues—the depression, the anxiety, the trauma from my past—never went away. I just had a different body. I started to realize that my struggle wasn't really with being a woman, but with accepting myself. I had a lot of internalized issues, and I think there was an element of internalized homophobia too; it felt easier to be a straight man than to be a gay woman.
I began to detransition after a period of serious reflection. I stopped taking testosterone. I had to come to terms with the permanent changes I had made to my body. I am now infertile because of the hormones, which is a hard reality to face. I also have concerns about the long-term health complications from the surgery, like potential issues with my lymph nodes and toxin buildup.
My thoughts on gender have changed completely. I don't believe that changing your body is the answer to psychological pain. I think I was led down a path that wasn't right for me because I was vulnerable and the only option presented was affirmation. I benefited greatly from non-affirming therapy later on, which helped me address my actual problems instead of just my gender identity.
I do have regrets about transitioning. I regret not dealing with my underlying mental health issues first. I regret the permanent changes to my body, especially losing my fertility. I feel like I was influenced by online spaces and a culture that encourages immediate transition without enough questioning.
Now, I am learning to accept my body as it is, even with the scars. I'm focused on healing from the trauma and building a life where I can just be me, without any labels.

Just reading this gave me a sigh of relief. I was banned from one of the Lesbian sub-Reddits for responding to a TransLesbian - who wanted to get tips for wooing the ladies 😬🤢🤮. Basically how he can SA women more successfully. And I just said this historically Lesbians do not desire 🍆. I saw a lot of other commenter got disappeared that day. TransIDMen rule in Lesbian spaces it seems.
A lot of one's lymph nodes are located in the outside areas of the breasts. The lymph system is how our bodies clears out toxins. So potentially any surgery in this area can affect this system adversely. This means toxin buildup in body can lead to auto-immune diseases.
Yeah except a few outliers - most of the Transactivists are super hateful toward detrans and desisters. I actually think these folks are AGP that are really freaked out when anyone doesn't affirm their fragile identity which a fetish and not a solid healthy identity. Transsexuals seem to be able to hold the truth that they are still their biological aex but struggle with gender dysphoria. AGP just need dominance of transgender fiction so they can avoid the horror of their life being based on a sexual kink gone overdrive.
You are obviously struggling with a lot of rage. And understandably so - because you feel trapped in your situation. Making huge life decisions should never come from a desperate and emotional place - they need to come from a peaceful and calm place to be well considered.
You are fine in your body and personality - but your crappy home life and environment are not reflecting that. Focus on getting away from the people who do not support you for you - not male or female you - just you.
Finding a basic job to pay for a cheap room - where you can just do your life as you want without worrying about BS commentary is key. You can get legally emancipated at 16 if you put your mind to it. Or just get a job after school and spend as little time as possible around your Dad. Study at tbe library - just find all the ways you can avoid him and his BS. Can you start taking classes at a community College? This takes you out of highschool and may offer you a more refreshing perspective on how you could be you without having to do drastic things to your body or life.
You have a whole life to transition if that is the right thing for you - but making a decision from a rage based reality will not get you the best outcome. Increasing physical activity can really help with the rage energy. Dancing and singing to powerful songs also helps.
Rooting for you!
I have a feeling these people were always medicalized - since children always being taken to doctors for behavioral issues and drugs. They don't actually have any sense of identity outside of being a willing victim to over-zealous doctors. This must be the golden age for Plastic Surgeons.
I don't know if this is so much an "unpopular" belief among lesbians - but rather suppressed. I have seen lesbians "disappeared" from Lesbian Subs for stating as much. Being canceled for being transhobic. So, it really is hard to know what people think - when people are banned for stating opinions. And who knows how many people self-censor and stay safe.
Yes - more Unisex single stall or family bathrooms should be made available and in most public places they are or there is a single, male and female. So that is okay as well. But AGP crowd gets really upset about this - because of unsavory reasons they do not want to admit. And instead they claim they are worried about being attacked in the men's bathroom - truly doubtful since most of them look like men and many are HUGE. I doubt.anyone would want to mess with them.
The main problem is Self ID, when anyone can be Trans, including many bad actors. T loses any relevance if anyone can become it. The only minority one can join at a whim. I think the Self-ID is meant to accommodate the cross-dressers in particular - who do nothing to pass- but absolutely want access to women's single sex spaces. This is EXACTLY what the oldschool transsexuals were trying to prevent, so they wouldn't be stereotyped as sexual deviants. Well that horse has long left the barn now. Sissy Porn and the transgender identity is inextricably linked now - hundreds of thousands of users on Reddit & X.
