For the past two years, President Joe Biden has commemorated the Transgender Day of Visibility with proclamations and video messages to the transgender community. The Biden administration is all-in on “gender-affirming care.” Biden had no comment, though, on Detrans Awareness Day. Yes, there are people who regret getting “gender-affirming care” as minors, but as we told you in December, a witness at House Oversight hearing on anti-LGBTQ violence said she doesn’t think detransitioning is real.
Last September, we posted a heartbreaking video of a girl who said she ruined her life by going on male hormones. “Every time I open my ****ing mouth I sound like a freak,” she said. “I’ve ruined my life with my stupid decisions I made as a kid.”
Here’s another detransitioner with a quick rant:
I’m going to rant on here for a second. It’s my birthday and all I’ve done is cry. In my bones, I feel like a man. But I neither look nor sound like a normal nearly-30-year-old-man. I have the face and voice of an estrogenized teenage boy.

Trans people keep reminding me I made a mistake. YES. I know I made a mistake. I kick myself for it daily. I cry about it daily. But trans people are also the ones who told me to make this mistake when I was a vulnerable teenage boy.

When I changed my mind at 18 and tried to go back to being a gay male, they took my stories of being asked if I was a boy or girl, because I was estrogenized and androgynous, and made it out like I was MEANT to be a girl, and I believed it.
— Seth W (@s_e_t_h_w_) April 13, 2023
I still blame myself for that, actually. I knew it wasn’t what I wanted, but I kept doing it anyway because I thought it was the path to one day being normal. That quest for normalcy resulted in removing my penis to fit in.

Now I feel like my body is in ruins. And I want to ask all these trans people: how do you know the trans teen you’re encouraging isn’t me? Maybe they won’t be tomorrow. Give it a decade and some change, it took me that long to detransition.
— Seth W (@s_e_t_h_w_) April 13, 2023
I didn’t know how much I would want to be the man I was born to be because I never got to be one. That was stolen from me by transition. My entire adult life has been spent transitioning. I was a boy when I started, and now I’m stuck in this weird in between.
— Seth W (@s_e_t_h_w_) April 13, 2023
I’m not saying this to be hateful or hurtful. I’m saying this because it’s true. I hope that I can fix the changes made to my body, but I’m also starting to consider my life somewhat of a wash.
— Seth W (@s_e_t_h_w_) April 13, 2023
What I can do now is try to prevent others from going through what I did. From having their futures ripped away from them and tossed into the meat grinder of transition.
— Seth W (@s_e_t_h_w_) April 13, 2023
Seth has taken quite a bit of flak on Twitter for posting that — detransitioners are the ones who are really being erased.
Maybe show more than a selfie and prove you're not a fake public aggravator who's using filtered pictures to manufacture ammunition to anti-trans people in their crusade to erase us legally?

This is as much of the video as it would let me share. Maybe this’ll help put an end to those questioning my detransition story. https://t.co/vjIYwBdu15 pic.twitter.com/4RPXG1o7zg

So… Do you feel stupid now? Just take the L and delete this.

Why? I asked and I received.

Keep digging that hole.

Is this the result of puberty blockers to cross sex hormones? You are entirely female in sound and appearance, the ideal for most mtf transitioners. I can see why they don’t want to let you escape.
— Dian Hanson (@thedianhanson) April 13, 2023
I was never on puberty blockers, but I was still IN puberty when I was encouraged to order hormones in secret from my family and begin medical transition as a teenage boy.
— Seth W (@s_e_t_h_w_) April 13, 2023
As far as I’m concerned you’re a hero for putting yourself out there and dealing with all the hate from radical trans activists who don’t care about children or anyone for that matter. I wish you well in finding the person you truly are. And please remember you’ve not alone

What do I have to lose? After everything I’ve survived, I have nothing to lose. What I’ve posted so far is the tip of the fucking iceberg.
— Seth W (@s_e_t_h_w_) April 13, 2023
Anyone who's suffered sex-based violence or harm from gender ideology is expected to publicly prove their trauma, yet those doing the demanding expect instant and total acceptance of all their own claims. It's insane.
I'm sorry this happened (and is happening) to you.
— Jess 💜🤺💚 (@anonotanon) April 13, 2023
I’m sorry the people who were meant to help did this. Can’t even begin to imagine what you’re going through. I appreciate you for being honest about it and taking accountability, I bet it must have been hard, yet you still did it. Much love.
— Cristian (@themodernsto1c) April 13, 2023
It is a hell of a thing what is happening, I feel stories like yours are important, because no one is hearing the other side.

You spoke beautifully, bravely, and powerfully. I wish you nothing but healing, happiness, and hope.
— Rob Barnes (@saucyboy71) April 13, 2023
Thank you for speaking out. If you stop even ONE person from being pushed into transition you will be doing a wonderful thing. I hope that you will find peace with your decisions and the happiness you deserve.
— Skylady (@Skylady1963) April 13, 2023
Thank you for your courage in speaking out. I’m so sorry about the lies you were told, but bravo to you for speaking the truth. Your courage will help save others from the path you were led down.💕

Again, the trans community wants to talk about being “erased” and yet they’ll do their best to suppress the voices of detransitioners. And meanwhile, the White House is peddling puberty blockers as “reversible” — if you change your mind, just stop taking them and you’ll be back to your old self … with your puberty delayed.
