About Us

With so little support available for people detransitioning, we realised that a dedicated website with social media is needed. This came about due to understanding the statistics surrounding the very high suicide rate of people that transitioned as well as just how badly detransition people are treated by the trans community.

Mission Statement

Trans Regrests is a website and social media platform created for, and about people who have detransitioned and/or desisted from transgender identification, as well as friends/family members of these people. We are dedicated to raising awareness and improving the well-being of detransitioned and people that stopped transitioning.

Our goals are:

To provide a social media platform for detransitioning and desisting individuals, their friends/family to share their journey and experiences with each other in a safe moderated place.
To provide a directory of resources geared towards detransition and desistance.
To save lives by having someone to chat with at any time using our dedicated social media app.

Trans Regrests is led by a cisgender gay man that recognised a need for a website and social media platform that could provide support and information to men and women that have or wanting to detransition or desist. We hope that Trans Regrets can be a platform for detransitioners and desisters to share their stories and experiences using our dedicated social media platform that works in a similar way to facebook. We believe that detransitioners and desisters are amazing and resilient individuals with valuable knowledge and insight that deserves to be shared.

We support the rights of all people, including transgender, detransitioned, desisted, gender-dysphoric, and gender-questioning people, to live lives free from discrimination and oppression. We believe that sharing the stories of detransitioners and desisters will benefit our society by helping to lift the social stigma against detransition and helping people who are going through this experience to feel safe and less alone.

Our individual beliefs and perspectives range on the political spectrum from centrist to left-wing. We feel that it is important to show stories representing a wide variety of viewpoints, and so we plan to accept story submissions even if we as individuals disagree with some of the content or expressed views of the storyteller. As a result, the content that we present from submitted stories does not necessarily represent our values as individuals or as a group.

Trans Regrets has been built by various people with a history of mental health issues that understand some of the problems relating to detransitioning. We are actively seeking people to assist with the running and moderation of our social media platform.
