I have transitioned from male to female in 2012 and detransitioned in 2016. For a long time i was trying to forget my past but it never stops haunting you. It's time that i put my story out there. I'm also going public with my story in Norway where i live.
The sad truth is that detransitioning becomes more common in western society, espacially in US, UK and Scandinavia. While i do find the phenomenon fascinating, from a perspective of a detransitioner it saddens me that more people who struggle with insecurity and finding acceptance towards themselves are going through what i went through all those years ago. The left and trans activists don't want us to have a voice and they misrepresent the truth about why so many of us detransition. I have never met a single person who detransitioned because of social stigma or lack of acceptance from their family. I'm not saying they don't exist but i don't think they make as much of the whole as they'd like us to think. However i did encounter several stories of people who were unhappy with their transition, had past traumas, insecurities, schizophrenia, autism or autogynephilia. My own story is one of those.
At the same time the right only takes interest in the rise of detransitioners because they want to use us against the trans movement. We are not weapons, we are soldiers. My goal is not to harm trans community but to offer an alternative point of view coming from someone who has spent years walking in the shoes of a transwoman and has a unique perspective on the whole issue because of the reasons i chose to detransition and traumas that caused me to transition in the first place. I think that we need more open, peaceful dialogue between detransitioners and trans activists and find a solution to the culture war surrounding the trans debate based on compromise and mutual respect. After all, i think we both want to see the world in which less people regret their transition and the world in which the people get the help they actually need.
In this video i will explain my reasons for transitioning from male to female, the side effects of HRT and my experience with bottom surgery as well as my life after detransitioning.
