Sharing Stories of Trauma on ‘Detransition Awareness Day’

March 12 is Detransition Awareness Day, a day to bring public attention to the traumatic consequences that radical LGBT ideology being pushed on children has wrought. It’s not a celebration, but a grim warning. Sinead Watson, a biological woman who detransitioned from male-presenting after painful surgeries and irreversible hormone “therapies,” is one of the leading voices attempting to get the word out that “transitioning” is not the answer for every kid who feels uncomfortable in his or her body. In a long thread on Twitter, Watson wrote:

Last year, detrans woman Elie Vandenbussche found that of 237 detransitioners, 70% detransitioned because their dysphoria was related to other issues. This study delves into the mental health issues many detransitioners struggle with.

Also last year, Lisa Littman found that of 100 detransitioners, 60% detransitioned after becoming more comfortable identifying as their biological sex. This study, and Vandenbussche’s, reveals what many detransitioners are battling with.

Watson invited the public to attend a Genspect webinar to learn about stories of Rapid Onset Gender Dysphoria and detransitioning. “Why are we doing this?” Watson wrote. “Why are we talking about detransition? Because it is important. Because it is *happening.* The stories will not be easy to accept – medical scandals never are. But that doesn’t mean they should be ignored. Quite the contrary, actually.”

Watson is sharing stories of detransitioners on her Twitter feed today.
