Same for much of the “alphabet people”, but especially the transgender ones…
And I don’t agree that sheer numbers are higher for FTMs. If you want to go with “percentage of FTMs who kill themselves”, vs the equivalent for MTFs, then sure, maybe, but statistics of that are very rarely published, so really, it’s clutching at straws…
I stand by my point.
Do they have other mental issues? Obviously yes. Will detransitioning resolve any of that, let alone “finding God”..? Very, very unlikely…
This is unfortunate, but it is fact.
The transition, and “detransition” are merely symptomatic of wider problems…
The end result, like I say, is unfortunately frequently much higher than the 10-15% you quoted there…
You really think that, in decades to come, 85%+ of them are going to live to a ripe, healthy old age..? Because, I’m sorry, but I honestly don’t see that happening.
Your first paragraph? Sure.
You’re, uhh, wrong about the statistics, though…
It’s a lot closer to 40% than 10%. Yes, really…

Sad, but unsurprising.
I recently read somewhere that it's 71% now
