Retransition

Someone who previously underwent a gender transition, later detransitioned, and then transitioned again.
Detrans Friend: Hey, I thought you detransitioned, but I noticed you started going by a male name again.

Retrans Friend: Oh, yeah. Sorry, I forgot to mention it. Transitioning is the right thing for me right now, so I'm retransitioning. I'm glad I went through the experience of detransitioning though. It really clarified my understanding of my gender identity.

Detrans Friend: I'm happy for you! I know who to talk to if I ever decide to retransition in the future.

Trans Friend: Doing the paperwork for one name and gender change and going through one medical transition was hard. I don't know how y'all do it.

Retrans Friend: I'm never gonna financially recover from this.

Political Detransitioner

A person who has detransitioned and now takes part in advocating for anti-transgender legislation (typically gender-affirming care restrictions) or against transgender movements and rights. Sometimes this is strictly for political reasonings or revulsion against gender-affirming care providers or transgender people.
A political detransitioner came to testify in support of an anti-gender-affirming care bill.

DETRENDITION

The act of realizing "Trends" or "Trendy" things such as slangs, bandwagons, social behaviors or attitudes have become so ridiculous that one cannot help but revert back to being a free range human that no longer feels the urge to bleat with the rest of the flock.
The individual began their detrendition when all the people who once demanded so many freedoms suddenly began wanting to revoke the ones they fought for.
