Trans youths who socially transition are unlikely to 'detransition' later, study finds

1. Absolutely

Most of us have a pretty good sense of who we are inside and how we identify at a young age. Despite the attempts of a few people here to make it an issue, "transition regret" is extremely rare... Far less rare than those who do transition (or realize) young and stay the course.

This is also why I'm so worked up over the attacks on trans youth in red-ass states. One of the worst times in our lives (and most chaotic in a lot of people's lives)? Adolescence. Puberty. The "I feel like this" inside while you're body is going the opposite way outside. That alone is bad enough, without being bullied in school, judged by your family, and now having thugs like DeSantis and Abbott punching down on you every day in the media.

The only thing that's going to change as a result of the QOP-fueled hatred in 2022 is more trans people going back into the closet... or resorting to self-harm.
