The Trans Regret Movement

[Rianna Humble]

I've finally realised that I'm not confused over the sexual issues but have problems with gender identity , that is down to AGP in my case , the confusion I have is others with AGP have transitioned to satisfy the need to be seen and accepted as a woman.

Teresa, The so-called condition of AGP is a discredited attempt by Ray Blanchard to pretend that all Transsexuals are sexually deviant homosexual men. His so-called research has been thrown out by the medical and psychological communities all around the world. I am aware that there are some in the Male to Female Crossdressing forums who have proudly adopted this discredited theory and to label themselves as sexually deviant homosexual men - even in some cases whilst telling us about their great relationship with their wives - however, amongst transsexuals this made-up condition is seen for what it is - an attempt to smear us and to prevent us from receiving the correct treatment.

the decision is a tough call, some are bound to get it wrong but to say it's only haters can't be right in all cases.

I am going to have to take issue with you again. Haters invent things to use against us, or they distort the truth by misquoting people such as happens on the "trans regret" website. They deliberately do as much harm as they can, even to the extent in some cases of indirectly causing the death of a trans person.

I think a major issue here is the recent trend of transition in minors and whether they are ready to transition at such a young age. Is puberty blockers damaging if the person ultimately decided they are not transgendered?

Jenny, I believe that puberty blockers have been used in other circumstances for quite a long time with no documented cases of harm to the recipient. I seem to recall a mention of their use in the 1970s in a case that was not trans related but cannot find the reference. As far as I can see, the "dangers" are all in the minds of those who oppose human rights for trans people.
