1 error, that detransition regret is 0.3%. It's actually 1-1.5% - ish. The 1-1.5% is not a figure that can be claimed to be 100% true either because of many contributing factors. If society was less hateful towards trans people, trans stats might be more reliable. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8099405/ https://checkyourfact.com/2023/05/26/fact-check-rate-of-regret-gender-affirming-surgery/ https://www.reuters.com/investigates/special-report/usa-transyouth-outcomes/
