In this story above is Ria Cooper. She came out as transgender at the early age of 15 and was making serious progress until age 18 when she detransitioned. Natrually, far right activists and people looking to read their own ignorance from someone else jumped on this as another reason why kids should transtion because they are ''too young to know what they want''. Ms Cooper was bullied, harassed, ect so she decided to de-transition back to being a 'gay man' and possibley join the military. She admits what many seem here to say when they ponder about going ''back''. Speaking from experince when i pondered about life going back to extreme shame and self loathing I too did what she did and put on male clothes, and much like her it was super gross feeling. Unlike her this only lasted a few hours, this girl denied herself for 5 long years. Today she is speaking out and being true to herself.

Already this is generating a lot of news with both pro-trans and anti-trans people in full force. However, in recent times Rias story doesnt seem too rare. I mean as i noted i was in extreme shame, denial, ect and tried and horribley failed maleness last year, another girl named Samantha Kane lived as a woman for 7 years, detrasnitioned in 2004 then sometime between 2013 and March this year began a transition again.

Babble aside I just want to say good on you Ria! I hope you find that your new journey is better then the one 5 years ago and you are able to open up your salon

My question is, "Why does she want her retransition to be so public."  She's already been the focus of a documentary according to the article when she detransitioned.  This makes me suspect attention-seeking behaviour.

I'm out but I would not care to live out my transition/detransition/retransition and my life across the front pages of newspapers.

I agree in the respects that I would hate for my transtion to be a public display. I honestly wouldnt like that part, i get uncomforatble when people from my past try getting in contact with me as it is.. I jst want to keep going.

As for Ria, I am not so sure it is attention seeking. I think she is doing herself and every single trans person a favor. She is setting the record straight on why she went back and why that isnt a good idea for others who have dysphoira remaining. I thinks she is being brave. You see, in 2012 when she went back to male living everyone who opposed the trans community jumped with joy. You would then have people who have some strong denial or just deeply troubled in the mind like Walt Heyer explain that ''she was too young'', '' this is proof no on is trans and you go back at some point, a phase'', ect. Heyer and his people should be eating crow, but i see already today, not even a day after this came out her is out there saying the polar opposite from ''Cooper is smart and going back to how it should be,ect'' to now saying ''Cooper has mental issues and in unstable''.

I think she has done a major service, and for people who had to go back in the closet to know that if you still have dysphoria then you are not alone and dont have to be forever locked in a closet because something made you go back in it.

What i have read of ria she claimed she was detransitioning due to not being able to find love which I can see her point.
