Female detransition and reidentification: Survey results and interpretation

This survey was created for anyone female/AFAB who formerly self-described as transgender. This includes women who transitioned, whether socially and/or medically, and subsequently detransitioned, as well as individuals who still identify as nonbinary or genderfluid, but have desisted from medical or social transition.

The survey ran from August 16 to August 30, 2016 and was shared through Tumblr, Facebook groups, and on the Wordpress blog 4thWaveNow. After removing several obviously fake responses and responses from individuals who had not stopped transition, the total response count was 203. Leaving aside all the other data this provides, the sheer number of responses is pretty amazing. Given that the survey was open for 2 weeks and was shared through a couple of Facebook groups, most of which were private, and Tumblr, I think we can safely say that detransitioners are not quite as rare as some would like to have us think. Other than that, there are a couple of points I’d like to elaborate on along with presenting the data.

“ Women are always told that some discrimination against us is less than others. And yet it all comes from the same source: misogyny. “

The data for the latest year is shy 3 months so the increase is likely *much* higher than 930%. This is a public health issue that is being addressed by giving hormones (and major surgeries) to minors/young adults  instead of working to erase the damaging social construct known as gender.

There is a great song for this!  https://soundcloud.com/lyricali-bee/only-make-believe

Feminism that isn't trans inclusive isn't feminism..... Trans women are women

It’s like listening to a song on loop. “Trans women are women…trans women are women…trans women are women…”

The uncritical repetition of these inane phrases is such an obvious brainwashing tactic.

I was put on the twitter blockbot list as a ‘TERF’ in 2013 for tweeting out about skene’s glands. So, I’m begging you to please let me into the tumblr club - I totally have the creds. And it would mean so much....not only to me but to my grandmothers. And great-grandmothers. And great-great grandmothers. And....all my other ancestral wombs who my cells were created from and travelled through in order to get to this moment of begging and pleading into this vast electronic public square (#FirstWorldProblems) where witch hunting has taken on new forms.

Since you can't access that TERF list unless you're on mobile...

here it is (+a few more)

most untagged ones are one’s I’ve already blocked so it won’t let me tag them. but yeah. add any others. also, don’t send hate to these people, it isn’t worth it. just block them, you don’t have to see their crap and they can’t interact with you. it’s better like this.
