Absolute bull crap.

As a trans woman I can tell you that waiting until post adolescence caused MAJOR harm - my body will never recover from the changes I got as a result.

You need to stop thinking you’re situation is the same as everyone.

I’m happy you didn’t feel the need to transition. You’re therefore not transgender therefore you do not have the right to speak for those of us that are.

I think it's pretty clear from their post They're speaking from the perspective of a formerly trans person

I don’t speak for anyone else.

Did your family support you in your journey?

Genuinely curious as I feel like that makes a big difference.
