Across the country and in Washington, D.C., detransitioners are stepping forward in numbers that institutions can’t keep brushing off. At the Genspect “Life Beyond Transition” conference, more than 70 detransitioners gathered, the largest event of its kind. It was the largest gathering of detransitioners ever held – young women and men who trusted the script, took the blockers, swallowed the hormones, went under the knife, and woke up to the nightmare.
