The detransitioners

<p>There is no reliable data on the number of people who regret their decision to undergo transgender surgery. James Caspian, a trained psychotherapist who worked for a decade with people who wanted to change their gender decided to find out more but was blocked by Bath Spa University for trying to research a non "politically correct" topic. He's now <a href="https://www.crowdjustice.com/case/free-speech-matters-round2/">trying to take his university to court</a>. </p> <br> <p>Laura Dodsworth is a writer and photographer who <a href="https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/the-detransitioners-what-happens-when-trans-men-want-to-be-women-again-fd22b7jhs">documented detransitioners for the <em>Sunday Times</em></a> through photographs of their bodies and she has written a longer piece on interviews with detransitioners <a href="https://medium.com/@barereality/the-detransitioners-72a4e01a10f9">here</a>.
