Yeah, it’s in that ballpark. Most regretters live in deeply transphobic environments, were cut off by their entire pre-transition support network without being able to find new friends in a local LGBT community, had to endure physical attacks, SA or constant, targeted harassment and things like that to make them regret their transition, or they are so let down by the results that they’ll never pass good enough to endure an environment as awful as theirs. And even out of these, many go back on HRT after a while because they realize they need it no matter how much the world hates them for it. These regretters have nothing to do with what the media shows us as detrans activists. They’re terribly hurt souls that deserve nothing but sympathy for what they had to go through.

Next to nobody regrets this because they were “faking it”, and i can’t rule out that even this subset of regretters actually is trans and is just going into repression again. Basically all of the outspoken regretters being alarmist about a trans craze and asking for more gatekeeping have some weird right wing background were i’m not the least bit surprised they can’t decide if they’d hate themselves slightly less as a cis lesbian or as a straight trans dude.
