I think a lot of TIMs and TIFs are themselves on the spectrum. Many of them also have other comorbidities that may result in them feeling as if they are in the wrong body. I think the reason why they chant so loud that TIMs are women, and TIFs are men is because if the society stops to examine this correlation between autism and transgender people, we will discover plastic surgeons took advantage of a population that is not completely working with a full deck of cards.

This will result in a great deal of loss of revenue in the medical field, and a lot of TIMs or TIFs may spiral deep into depression when they realized they ruined their lives over a cognitive distortion that could have been managed with a less invasive treatment plan.

This is very true. The increasing amount of detransitioners will hopefully not be drowned out. And trans ideology is a lot like Scientology where they teach you are born with something wrong with your body which can only be fixed by paying for extensive programmes.

And if you leave the "program," everyone in your community shuns you. They silence you.

Eerily similar.

Yeah. Detransitioners are shunned because they threaten the stability and legitimacy of the trans movement, and its ability to maintain its power. It's very much like a religious cult in how it operates.
