I like this subreddit a lot, but...
Am I the only one who notices how anything mentioning actual medical regret, surgical and sterilization regret, losing community when coming out about detransitioning, and any pushback on the sentiment that we don't deserve any place within the genderqueer community - I think we do - gets downvoted?? I'd assume its lurkers, perhaps transmedicalist lurkers. Sometimes it feels like the exact opposite issue from the other subreddit where you have so many lurkers who are right wing or homophobic or TERs ect it seems like there are detransphobic lurkers here at times and it makes me sad idk I just don't feel I belong anywhere and I hate feeling like I'm not allowed to say I WAS coerced into the medical aspects bc transmedicalism and medical / parental coercion. My OWN EXPERIENCES as a serial abuse and neglect survivor, part of which involved transitioning trauma, should not be weaponized, stigmatized, or demonized, I guess. It just is very frustrating, idk what to do with all of this and I hate feeling invalidated, it is extremely triggering
