I think cis people have a really hard time grasping why trans people are discouraging of detransition. They look at it like we're trying to indoctrinate and evangelize people. But it comes back to their struggle to internalize our realities of who we are. Would someone ever look at a cis woman and say "you need to live as a man or you'll be kicked out of your home and lose your job" and then seriously expect her to become a man? No, that'd be insane! But that's what's happening 99.9% of the time when a trans person detransitions. Detransition doesn't mean the person *isn't* trans or *isn't* their gender. It simply means the world has become too unsafe to be honest about it. There is no world in which I'm *not* a woman. There's no law you can make, or threat, or loss of access to health care that can possibly change that. I'm just as much a woman as any cis woman, whether bigots like it or not. Detransitioning would simply be living in the closet. And that's why I reject the premise from the start.
