How can you 'detransition' when it's physically impossible to
'transition' in the first place without a full DNA transplant???

This 'gender' horseshit is a redundant m/f distinction...biological
sex gives the only valid m/f determination.

Horseshit on both counts. There are no 'trans' people, only male and
female impersonators. What you call 'decent' parts of America pander
to such delusions. The rest of America (the truly decent part)
doesn't. And nor should it.

You're not even immune from abuse, ridicule and worse in your
degenerate 'trans'-friendly state, faggot.
