TL;DR : Dismissing everyone trans as a sex crazed pervert is exactly what women want. They are victims of an insidious feminist plot.

It's talked about online and in trans spaces, and is pretty common; I've seen multiple trans women wearing "I survived testosterone poisoning" t-shirts.

Who calls testosterone a poison?

I was terrified of what testosterone was doing to me. I didn't want to be a man. I didn't want to be big and hairy. Men scared me. I’d seen my mom assaulted when I was young, and I didn’t want to be like the man who’d done that to her.

The lack of any positive views towards men made the individual genuinely fear becoming a man.

I'd been bullied a lot in school by other boys, and a lot of that bullying involved sexual abuse–groping, inappropriate touching, striking my butt and genitals, and verbal harassment (wolf-whistling amd yelling sexual comments at me). These, I felt, weren’t the sorts of things that happened to men. My suffering was only legible if I was a woman.

Preying on those who are weak, not able to achieve any sort of companionship with male peers.

This wasn't just "toxic masculinity"--I saw feminists saying all masculinity was toxic, that all men were rapists, all men were oppressors, all men should be killed.

This has only gotten worse over time. Women's rhetoric continues to grow and become impossible to avoid.

Now this stuff is everywhere, online and off. Is it any surprise that teenagers (frequently autistic teenagers who take everything literally) want to transition when they're exposed to societal messages telling them "men are bad, men are dangerous to women, only men have power"

Women's influence spreading, this is an obvious consequence to anyone who isn't wilfully ignorant.

Young boys will want to transition to escape the masculinity they're being told is harmful and toxic;

Escape the hate to feel like a human being, and the flipside...

I imagine young girls will want to transition to escape the violence they're being told is around every corner, in the eyes of every man who looks at them, and to access the power they're being told they're denied.

The fear campaign backfiring on women, which is the ONLY reason the TERFs are here at all.

I wanted to transition because my body was my enemy, and my body was the enemy of the world. I hated myself and wanted to punish myself. It was the same feeling that motivates cutting, binge-eating, anorexia, and lashing oneself.

Hold. Feminism. Accountable.

My very nature meant I deserved pain. I couldn't remove my whiteness from myself, but maybe I could remove my maleness. The first step was to get rid of the poison coursing through my body: testosterone, the hormone turning me into an animal and a brute. I needed to purify myself.

I'm not going to comment here. I just want the people who make "troon suicide" memes to realize who they're targeting and who is being supported by it.

I didn't have any particular reason to want to be female except that women were better than men–in my mind women were smarter, kinder, more empathetic, more beautiful, more moral.

Education and society have truly failed boys. Never should have allowed women's in-group bias to have such deep control.

I was attracted to women, and felt guilty about that attraction–straight male sexuality, I was told, was repulsive and rapey and objectifying. If I were a woman, I could be attracted to other women in a virtuous way. Maybe I was fetishizing lesbians, but there was nothing leering about it–I simply believed the things that women online were saying about themselves.

The reason for trans lesbians. They just want to be able to like women and not feel guilty.

Women also, in my perspective as a confused and traumatized fourteen-year-old, were valuable and worthy of consideration in a way that men were not

Gynocentrism is hard to push past.

My transition wasn't driven by fetishism or misogyny. I was just a lonely, wounded child. All I really wanted was to be loved.

And this is why I refuse to let TERFs lead the opposition. These people need help, they need their villains crushed so they feel that they can desert the ideology that's harming them.

A transition is never done. There's always more surgeries, new treatments, more work to do. You can never carve away enough pieces of yourself to be satisfied. You can never rid yourself of the fundamental facts of your own biology. You can never be cleansed of sin.

By design. Feminists planned the trans ideology to never have a situation where you had paid your debt to your "superiors" so that you'd be their slave for life.

The end goal of transition isn’t self-actualization. It's self-annihilation.
