Is anyone here detransitioning, desisting, retransitioning, or anything besides a single road from AGAB -> desired gender? Note: this is NOT a thread to be transphobic under, I am not again transitioning at all. Trans rights are human rights.

Not against* transitioning at all

Honestly after fighting so hard against my family to be allowed to transition, even though they said I’d regret it, I feel even worse about coming out again as NB. It was just such a horrible experience that I never quite healed from and I don’t want to reopen that wound.

sort of? my road wasn't full of physically transitioning until just recently (3 wks ago) however i've kind of jumped all over the place with regards to my identity for about 6 or 7 (haha) years i've gone by different pronouns and i tried different names online and in those years i've recame out to a lot of people

I thought I was nonbinary for several years and even came out that way, but had to course correct when I realized I was a woman. It sucked but I’m glad I got there in the end! My coming out (both times) was really bad, and my family has some giant elephant about it, but I’m much happier transitioning alone than pretending to be a boy with my family. All in all do what makes you happy while being safe, if staying closeted for now is what keeps you safe then do that!

But it hurts seeing myself being called “daughter” all the time knowing that that’s not truly who I am. I feel pressured into wearing dresses and such because I fought so hard to get here. I’m stealth IRL too so I feel like I just have to keep taking HRT to keep the disguise up because I don’t want to lose everyone’s trust but this binary womanhood just isn’t me in entirety.

Kind of irrelevant though, I moreso wanted to see other people’s experiences with non binary de/retransition or even total MtFtM or FtMtF

ah i see i think it really boils down to how good are people at accepting change? i think since it's really impacting you & you feel pressured to perform femininity & it's causing issues, maybe sitting down and having a convo would be helpful. it's hella scary and they'll have a ton of questions probably but it might do a lot of good & make you feel better obvi, i don't know your situation so i don't know if it's safe or unsafe or how your family will react at all so do what you think is best

if it makes you feel better, i went from female to gender fluid to nonbinary to female to transmale to genderqueer to transmale to a lot of flip flopping to transmasc/nonbinary/somewhere in that zone

Would you consider yourself a feminine transmasc?
