Reddit/detrans is an online forum where detransitioning transgender people share their stories. It's huge and busy. It's going to get huger and busier as the movement implodes because of biological realities. This post and the comment thread below it, dealing with the lies and misconceptions the transitioners were fed as they decided to mutilate and poison themselves is particularly interesting. All grammar and spelling errors are in the original content.
what are some misconceptions or straight up misinfo and opinions you heard while trans and/or in those spaces?
ill start with some i remember. mostly on platforms such as tumblr but not limited to that ofc. "sexual dichotomy is essentially useless in humans/blurred at this point", "there aren't any serious adverse effects of hormones/surgery", "only terfs care about gender", "you can be born trans", and a favorite that would always make make me feel off, "real men can give birth". wont go into the more 'vulgar' ones but curious what others heard or believed while engaging in transition/gender spaces.
The poster paints the picture of a normal person of average intelligence being sold down the river by nihilist ideologues. The whole thread is fascinating, but I'll just quote one reply here.
I was told:
-Puberty blockers aren't permanent, this is half true. You can resume puberty, but you do miss out on those years of development. The impact is permanent, even if the lack of puberty isn't.
-HRT and surgery is the right choice for everyone, every time. This is obviously not true.
-People who regretted transitioning and still felt suicidal just weren't being accepted for themselves, again obviously not true.
-Hormones were completely safe and that the risk of cancer and mental health spiral was nothing more than a conservative talking point. This one was so untrue it nearly got me killed.
-Children as young as 18 months can display signs of being trans. This is baseless and predatory.
You don't need to be a Nostradamus to see what's coming. We're at the beginning of the cultural realization that the trans movement is a hideous trap for the gullible and insecure.
As much fun as it is to fantasize about a tidal wave of vengeance coming for the degenerates that are causing all of this pain, I don't think that will ever happen. The news media will treat it like they treat all the blacks killed by abortion and murders - it will be completely ignored as they move on to the next thing they hope will bring power and money to their progressive causes.
There's something deeper at work here. The trans madness took root because we ditched a belief in objective reality. If we don't want to get hit with another one of these where trans will be replaced by something equally insane and nihilistic, we need to reassert a belief in the Truth.
I know I harp on this subject, but spreading the Truth is the primary mission of the Catholic Church. What are we doing? Nothing. The ground is fertile and waiting to be planted and we're blathering about Global Warming Climate Change and justice in all of its flavors.
The problem wasn't the trans movement or the acceptance of LGBT. Those are just symptoms. The real problem was and continues to be the abandonment of reality. You can accept and love LG people while maintaining that human life is sacred and all comes from the union of one man and one woman. Failing to defend that has gotten us where we are today - a reddit channel where tortured people cry out in pain.

“we need to reassert a belief in the Truth.”
As I read this, in my head I heard that woman from What is a Woman say, in her oh so condescending smug self-important voice, say “who’s truth?” She is certain that we are the ones who are deluded, while you and I are equally certain that she is the one who is deluded. All we can do is stand our ground and say what we believe. Fortunately, I believe that a simple truth, spoken clearly and simply, cannot lose.
Meanwhile, China laughs its @$$ off.
That is the fundamental problem with what is happening in America right now. Fortunately, I suppose, it is reaching the end of its shelf life as inflation goes up, the markets get killed and crime goes crazy. The Truth exists and you can only deny it for so long.
