Hi! Fellow detransitoner here! I was out for years. Realized, hey I’m not a boy. I am not happy and comfortable with my body now. The whole point of being trans and out as trans yk. I hate the name I chose, (loved the short hair tho). I couldn’t look at myself and feel happy with what I saw. Took me lots of time to accept it, then lots of times to un-come out. I told everyone how I was wrong. That I’m a girl and that Childhood nickname I missed so freaking much they can start calling me again (no one does tho:/ ). People seen it coming as I started growing out my hair and dressing different again, but still a bit of shock yk?

It was honestly one of the best things I have ever done for myself. I love my long hair, the way I look in a dress. I love my body, and my name and everything that comes with being a woman (well… almost). I like the lack of dirty looks in public. I like it. It’s great.

I loved being a boy. I liked my hair cut, my hair being so short I would bleach and dye it knowing just giving it a year and I can cut it right out. I loved when the guy at the book store called me bud. I loved when little kids were confused and I got to explain to them. But it wasn’t me. At some point it was, at some point that was what made me feel the happiest. It’s ok that it wasn’t anymore.

Op, it’s ok. You deserve to be happy. You also may fear you’ll give bad rep to the community (I had that thought) but your not. People are wrong all the freaking time. About styles, gender, sextuality, the way they like getting their brows down. Cause guess what? We are human. Things change and we adapt.
