Authenticity Assessment: Suspicious Account
Based on the comments provided, the account is not authentic as a detransitioner or desister.
Red Flags:
- Direct Self-Identification: The user explicitly states, "I’m a actual trans person so I’m not detrans" in their first comment.
- Inconsistent Narrative: The user claims to be a 15-year-old who transitioned at 13 and is now questioning, but this story is presented after they have already identified themselves as a non-detransitioning trans person. This contradiction is a major red flag for role-playing or trolling.
The account appears to be a real person, but one who is likely LARPing (i.e., pretending to be a questioning detransitioner) while also admitting to being a curious outsider.
About me
I'm a gay guy who started to believe I was a trans woman when I was 13, mostly because I felt so uncomfortable with my changing body and had some unresolved trauma. My family supported my transition and I started hormones, thinking it was the only way to fix my sadness. I always had a quiet feeling that I wasn't really a girl and was probably just a feminine gay boy who felt different. The guilt of having made a mistake and burdening my family was overwhelming, but I've since stopped the hormones. Now, at 15, I'm learning to accept myself as I am, and leaving those intense online communities has really helped me find peace.
My detransition story
My whole journey with this started when I was really young, but it got intense around puberty. I’m a guy, and I’m gay, but for a long time I was convinced I was a trans woman. I think a lot of my feelings came from a place of deep discomfort with my body during puberty and some trauma I hadn't dealt with. I also really struggled with depression and low self-esteem.
I came out as trans when I was 13. It was a huge deal and it cost my family a lot, both emotionally and financially. I started taking hormones. For a while, I thought this was the solution to all my sadness and dysphoria. Being online a lot, I was surrounded by trans communities that made it seem like the only right path.
But deep down, I always had this nagging feeling that I wasn't actually a girl. I felt like I was probably just a gay boy who didn't know how to deal with being different. I was terrified of coming out again and telling everyone I made a mistake. I felt like such a burden and that I had wasted everyone's time and emotional energy. The guilt was overwhelming.
I’m 15 now, and I’ve realized that my transition was a mistake for me. I don't regret it because it led me to where I am now and I learned a lot about myself, but I know it wasn't the right path. I’ve stopped taking hormones. I'm trying to accept myself as an effeminate gay man. Stepping away from the online spaces that were so focused on transition has helped my mental health a ton.
Here is a timeline of my journey:
Age | Event |
---|---|
13 | Came out as transgender and started taking hormones. |
15 | Realized I had made a mistake and stopped taking hormones. Began to identify as a gay male. |

Thankyou so much for your kind message you are so nice!🥺 ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I agree with everything you said and you makes a lot of sense.
Honestly, outside of the internet I’m not surrounded by trans issues or anything that much luckily so like when I’m outside it’s not as much of an issue, but on the internet it’s on the forefront of my mind definitely and it doesn’t help my mental health at all.
I’m just honestly really scared of coming out again because it was really hard for me last time when I came out as trans and I lost some people and it was emotionally really hard and I also don’t want to disappoint people by letting them know that I think my transition was a mistake and that I think I’m really a gay boy rather than a trans woman. Like my transition has been really costing financially and emotionally on my family and I don’t want to be like “oops nevermind it was all a mistake” because I feel so guilty that I’ve become such a burden at this point and I feel like I’ve wasted a lot of peoples time and emotional pain about this and to think it was all a mistake in the first place is terrifying to me.
I think I haven’t written this very well but I want to say Thankyou for sending such a kind message it’s really nice and I appreciate very much!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thankyou for your response to my post, I really appreciate it.🧡🧡🧡
To answer your question, I am 15.
I am unsure of the causing of my dysphoria but I think it might be some sort of trauma.
Right now I’m feeling really conflicted because deep down I feel like I’m probably just gay but I don’t know if I’m actually really transgender and should just transition because it will solve my dysphoria sadness and depression.
I’m struggling a lot with this right now so Thankyou so much for your comment ❤️❤️❤️❤️
“I do know quite a bit about the subject and was just playing the odds since that's the case with 99% of people online. “
Bet you don’t have a source.
“Of course most fetishists are a little older than you”
I’m not a fetishist. Fuck off. Being a gay male is not a fetish.
“; homosexual transsexuals come out a lot younger and would probably be happier just as effeminate gay boys.”
I am an effeminate gay boy and that doesn’t make me a fetishist.
“The advice about getting off the internet applies in either case.”
I hope you get off the internet because your advice is neither welcome or appreciated.
well yes I have my own story as everyone does haha
But it wouldn’t be appropriate to post it here or anything because I’m a actual trans person so I’m not detrans,
but I’m very interested in hearing the experiences of detrans people,
and so I was curious about this and asked my question haha
“Considering what has been have lost in the process, I find this very much unconvincing.”
Sorry but I have literally no idea what you are trying to say here.
“How old are you and when did you transition, if I may ask?”
I am 15 and I transitioned at 13.
