+## Detransitioners
+
+#### While detransitioning is rare in the first place, it is overwhelmingly driven by various forms of descrimination, not uncertainty with regards to identity.

+*   [National Center for Transgender Equality: U.S. Transgender Survey 15](https://transequality.org/sites/default/files/docs/usts/USTS-Full-Report-Dec17.pdf)
+    *   “De-transitioned” is defined as having “gone back to living as [one’s] sex assigned at birth, **at least for a while**.” 
+        *   Note that this isn’t just about people who detransition **permanently**, it also includes people who, socially or medically, reverted their transition **temporarily**.
+    *   Under this broad definition, **only 8%** of respondents reported having de-transitioned at some point.
+    *   Of these “detransitioners,” **only 5%** did it because they realized it was not for them, accounting for a **mere 0.4% of the overall sample.**
+    *   Other, more prominent reasons include:
+        *   Pressure from a parent (36%)
+        *   Discrimination and harassment after beganing to transition (31%)
+        *   Trouble with getting a job (29%)
+        *   Pressure from other family members (26%)
+        *   Pressure from spouse or partner (18%)
+        *   Pressure from an employer (17%)
+        *   Pressure from friends (13%)
+        *   Pressure from a mental health professional (5%)
+        *   Pressure from a religious counselor (5%)
+        *   Financial reasons (3%)
+        *   Medical reasons (2%)
+*   Note about the survey report:
