Recommended Resources
My Body Is Me Publishing recommends this exceptional resource that fills the existing information gap about detransition. A word from Nele & Ellie the creators at Post Trans:
“Voices of detransitioners are central to this booklet. Post Trans gathered written experiences of 75 female and male detransitioners and created the content based on their wishes, advice and thoughts. The 50-page long booklet has the objective to reach detransitioners and desisters, their relatives and close ones.
We hope our booklet will start discussions about detransition in an empathetic way, with the sole aim of improving detransitioners’ and desisters’ lives. We do not want to invalidate trans people’s lives and experiences in any way. Simply, we believe that it is time that detransitioners are included in conversations.”

Our new play I, Joan shows Joan as a legendary leader who uses the pronouns ‘they/them’. We are not the first to present Joan in this way, and we will not be the last. We can't wait to share this production with everyone and discover this cultural icon.

Portrait 18 in my art series of 100 detransitioned women. I’m often blown away at the words of wisdom shared by my participants after their challenging journey. This is Jesse “An important aspect that I want people to understand is that there is no physical “detransition” (1/n)
