Detransition Stories
There is no formal NZ research yet on levels of detransition (people who want to reverse their transition to the opposite gender) in this country. But it appears there may be a significant number from our reading of social media accounts on platforms such as Twitter and Reddit.
We warmly welcome stories from detransitioners and parents of detransitioners to be submitted to this site. Other people’s stories are powerful and supportive as well as useful for making change.
