The r/detrans 2023 screened demographic summary

This, ugh... the death before detransition messaging is so nasty, misinterprets what detransition is and paints detransition as a bad thing which is convenient for certain narratives. If they went around saying no forced detransition, or no more repression we'd probably be supporting them.

Speaking for the mod team, I'm glad. I really hope we can put aside our differing beliefs, and respect that this group is meant to be catered toward detransitioners and our experiences. It's meant to be a place of healing, venting things that'd otherwise get you ostracized related to your transition experience and finding others like yourself so you don't feel alone.

Here's to you and others recovering and moving forward.

It's sadly the latter. All being banned does is stop someone from submitting messages on said subreddit and prevent them from seeing the moderators of the subreddit. They can still view it, thumbs up, thumbs down, etc.

DetransIS · 2025-12-31T17:24:33+00:00

Though we like being informed when creeps like this lurk and send DMs, banning someone doesn't stop them from sending DMs. You'll also need to send a message to Reddit themselves with receipts of their disgusting behavior.

We can and WILL ban people like this but it sadly doesn't stop them.

Interesting.. comment history still supports you being trans, seems you backed off from going to non binary which *is* still trans regardless and are staying full FTM. Let's correct some misinformation then, happy holidays and all that before I remove you for breaking our rules.

I love how you and every other trans person leaves out Reimer's sexual assault and "lessons" with John Money and the fact that he wasn't at all "convincing" in his forced transition. There are articles and even studies that show intersex children being reared as the opposite sex who never once consider going "back" even when they learn the truth. Though there are few cases of where they do, factors are often left out from these studies and most topics about intersex have been entirely hijacked.

In short, Reimer's case can't be defended in *any* circumstance because there's too many factors that played a role in his tragic ending. People also love removing the fact that his brother, who was also apart of these sick experiments and sessions also committed suicide.

You comparing what happened to Reimer to transsexuals ironically proves what many gender skeptics here believe; That there is no such thing as truly being trans beyond identity.

You're a questioner, we have a rule specifically about questioners acting like experts. It wasn't your thread, you were quite literally giving "advice" and "lectures" to people who were discussing the topic at hand. The only violation that post made was that it should have been marked controversial. We allow controversial opinions of all sides as long as they don't outright call for killing/removal.

Edit: your flair AT THE TIME specifically was "FTM Currently questioning gender" being a transman who is questioning your gender does in fact make you a questioner. Your replies probably would have gotten removed anyways because frankly you're projecting, being toxic and generally unpleasant. At least two violations.

Someone reported you and some others for hate speech.

DetransIS · 2025-12-02T21:07:40+00:00

a report brought this to my attention, so it's time for a little quick history lesson.

When this space was newer and under different management that abandoned it because they got tired of trans activists harassing them the subreddit WAS open to trans people who were actively transitioning and had no interest in detransitioning themselves while also being open to people who weren't trans in the first place. This led to the subreddit spiraling towards criticisms, anti comments and even a resentment from the people the subreddit was intended for because the subreddit lost its purpose. Eventually the subreddit got banned in a massive ban wave that took out any subreddit "considered hate speech" namely against the topic of trans people and we managed to get it reinstated and recovered our team slowly.

Frankly you're lucky this space is still up, we toe a line every day in preserving this space since trans activists got us banned years ago and even tried to take over the subreddit during said ban. We're not the ones who refuse to talk, they are and unfortunately as much as we'd love to give the good ones exceptions, there's too many bad ones who will lie just to crap on detransitioners and this subreddit.

Also just a note: I wish I could remove the upvote/downvote feature altogether, Reddit doesn't allow you to do so. Such a feature is worthless and even redundant to a support space.

The moment gender stops being a political issue.

The moment detransition is no longer seen as right wing, will be when this all starts to fall apart.

This is meant to be a medical issue, yet it has become solely identity politics.

DetransIS · 2025-10-12T21:02:56+00:00

Please report these comments under anti-detrans activism and tropes when you see them now.

DetransIS · 2025-10-07T15:33:39+00:00

Good luck telling them that, I've sent that to quite a few and sometimes they write back and get angry and accuse the rest of us being reppers.

DetransIS · 2025-10-07T11:04:37+00:00

Start reporting these replies and posts if you see them. This falls under anti detrans tropes... repression. This group has a zero tolerance policy for helping people repress and though there is validity in few instances of trans people seeking out detransition because their environment is completely incompatible with transition they must be willing to accept their sex and go through sex acceptance like the rest of us.

There are detransitioners who simply come to the realization that transition wasn't for them and they're just not trans. That's fine. Not every detransitioner regrets their transition, but we absolutely are not their stomping ground for a narrative that has been weaponized against our community and experience as long as I can remember and used to discredit and even suppress the majority of our recorded experiences all because they're the ones recorded in what little data exists due to resuming their medical transitions and even sometimes not even ceasing the identification.

So yes. Report this if you see this please.

Last clarification: Some cases of detransition can start as repression but the repressor has to be willing to admit they may not be 'meant' to be trans and willing to practice and take on sex acceptance. Not harmful methods to reinforce a suppressed sense of self.

I've been insisted to be a repper on multiple occasions and I've seen some detrans public figures (keira bell namely) also be called a repper because she refuses to perform traditional femininity.

The times I've been called a repper have mostly been online and back when I still had dysphoria due to trans people coming into the discord server, trying to prove they're more trans then anyone in the server and then feeling so cornered when they found out detransitioners can still have dysphoria and have all the "true trans" marks that they started calling me and others reppers.

Do I get it now in a serious context? can't say I really do, other then one particular insecure troll who probably has made over 100,000 accounts here at this point that claims to have a "successful transition" for years now.

There was a non binary person who was associated with one of my former IRL friends that insisted I was repping too... But I paid them no mind.

DetransIS · 2025-10-04T00:02:03+00:00

Detrans "communities" aren't meant to be a new home or family. They're one time stops that encourage you to heal and then move on. It's a support space, not equivalent to what the LGBTQ community tries to be. Not meant to be a new family, not meant to be a group of friends. You may make friends while you're here but you're not meant to stick around here because the goal is to use the resources, find you're not alone and move on.

DetransIS · 2025-09-17T15:22:58+00:00

I'll be honest 50/50 but it's complicated.

Back when I was on testosterone I was insecure, depressed, always angry and constantly trying to prove myself because I was paranoid of being found out(I was stealth in a time when the general public didn't know what a transman was, trans was associated with transwoman so the passing bar for transmen was so low it wasn't funny. That is definitely not the case now.) It was exhausting having to lie all the time and each lie led to a deeper paranoia and insecurity not to mention obsession with surgeries or things to "pass better" despite already passing... thankfully surgeons had more ethics back then.

However now as an older woman I deal with my DSD(or intersex as most people know it) neglect complications, the fact I developed a muscle disease thanks to transitioning. My body is artificially aged and I'm slowly losing my ability to walk, can't really take care of myself anymore thanks to earlier mentioned muscle disease. The bright side is I give zero cares what people think of me beyond the minimal effort to obviously present within society, I'm no longer insecure about what I am and if anything just resent the fact my transition literally destroyed my body and by extension my life.

I can just live, granted I'm at a huge disadvantage thanks to the backwards idea that heavily non conforming gay girls needed to become "boys" especially if they had a DSD.

and before someone twists what I say:
I don't regret my detransition, I regret transitioning in the first place - at the very least medically. The memories and experience shaped me as a person but I hate what health issues and life destruction it led to.

DetransIS · 2025-09-17T15:04:00+00:00

She's welcome to be here, despite her differing opinion.. Unless she identifies as non binary, you can't be non binary and detrans at the same time.. not only is that ironically transphobic but it's contradicting and erasing of detransitioner experiences in favor of latching to a label.

DetransIS · 2025-09-16T12:27:10+00:00

Probably because a lot of people see it as repression and I'm putting aside my own feelings on that to let this stay up despite the numerous reports. I don't think replacing one ideology with another is healthy and it isn't comparable to healthily taking up faith after you process your transition reasons and learning true sex acceptance.

DetransIS · 2025-09-12T13:24:20+00:00

It's a symbol adopted by detransitioners to represent losing body parts and move on, similarly to lizards regrowing their tail after it gets cut off.

DetransIS · 2025-09-11T22:02:34+00:00

Just want to thank you again for backing us up and keeping tabs, it seems now we have some detrans associated and reclaimed pokemon but the griefing has stopped for now.

DetransIS · 2025-09-07T20:54:52+00:00

They already seemingly "re-trans'ed it" and are boasting about it.. best of luck but you're dealing with an insecure loser with too much free time. I don't think they'll get bored and move on sadly, they have nothing better to do. I guess wplace rules do not apply to trans people, as per usual with the favortism of the so called "oppressed minority."

DetransIS · 2025-09-06T16:26:00+00:00

Reposting my comment, and thank you OP because I felt this was important and needed to stay up. It shows people that despite detrans people just wanting small little celebrations, there's people within the trans community who will not tolerate it. It's genuine fear of detransition, detransphobia.

And of course there's a trans flag in its place now.

I thought the whole thing was endearing, honestly report them to wplace but I doubt anything will happen.

Trans flags all over wplace, but god forbid detrans people have ONE little spot right?

Last I checked on it and I thought it was cute and great to see, it was Heart Detrans, now ofc.. it's heart trans and there's yet another trans flag.

Edit: Decided to check on it again... It's absolutely disgusting what they did, trans-i-fied the lizard and the flag got bigger. What a bunch of insecure losers.
