I Regret Transitioning. Now I'm Anti-Trans. | Horrors Of Humanity | Humanity

We'd like to remind everyone that body autonomy is very important as we learnt in the David Reimer case, so one persons case cannot dictate others. We send our love to our Transgender friends!

Walt Heyer is an American author, activist and speaker who underwent gender reassignment and lived for eight years as a trans woman before detransitioning in 1991.

As a child, his grandmother "Mamie" made him a purple dress. When his parents discovered this, they would supervise all his visits and his father hit him. His uncle would sexually abuse him. After what he described as a misdiagnosis of gender dysphoria, Walt Heyer underwent gender reassignment surgery and lived for eight years as a woman named Laura Jensen, before regretting and reversing his sex change.

His experience led him to support the view "that transgender people often experience regret after transitioning, arguing that what transgender people actually need is 'psychiatric or psychological help.'" In a 2020 video, Heyer described the source of his gender confusion as "being cross-dressed, being disciplined with a hardwood floor plank, and being sexually molested."

Once "assistant manager of product planning for America Honda Motor Co", Heyer now works as an author and as a contributor to The Federalist and various other conservative media outlets.

This poor man was failed by every adult he encountered since birth.

[breezyveezy]

That poor man was put through so much trauma like many in the trans community.

[HH-mriq]

Yet another (ex)trans person who experienced childhood trauma. Hmmm...

[mendmywings]

It's amazing how much kids want to please their parents. If they're constantly given outside for doing certain things they'll do it more. And then these parents of trans kids use that as evidence their kid is the opposite gender. It's search a circular and honestly abusive cycle and i feel bad for all the people caught up in this

I’ve had a similar experience except I was made feel guilty and responsible for coming out a boy and not a girl
The shame is so severe. I want to cut my bits off.
I’ve just come through a toxic shame attack.
Torture cruelty and terror
Pure evil yet I’m carrying that beleif.

... and then at the end of the interesting video, my childhood trauma of being raised in a fundamentalist born-again Christian household that told me I was going to burn in an eternal lake of fire because I didn’t believe in an imaginary best friend in the sky comes back to haunt me. 🙄

[spiceywolf]

is kinda annoying he thinks all trans people shouldnt be helped just cause his case was he was conditioned into it which isnt the broader case for more trans people 👀
