@ikea_femme There's so much going on in your hex. I worry you might be misled without some words.
1. "Truscum" reflects folk who think all transgender folk need to have the same experience, including gender dysphoria, or else they aren't transgender.
2. Abuse is transparent. In many cases, folk in group therapy realize how they have been abused by hearing similar tales from their mates, and witnessing the emotions from that confession. Abuse is so insidious that it comes in many forms, and can be normalized into invisibility with each.
Finally, I live in a largely transphobic culture. This has aspects of abuse as well.
abuse mention, truscum Afficher plus
@Filene good points. I don't think I can think of anything that's abuse in my history, but I know victims tend to minimize abuse. I'm still just drawing a blank.
And I think I just worry about transition regret more as I'm starting to think about GCS and being trans in the workforce. I don't regret my transition one bit today, and I'd be glad for all the experiences even if I did detransition. Honestly, today, last night's anxieties barely make sense. Moods are strange.
