Thanks! I've been on a roll creating articles from
the Women in Red
list, but have found that some on the list are not actually women (cis
or trans), but non-binary or trans men. That's a separate topic for
discussion, but others are welcome to weigh on it here:

And if you think that's complicated, wait til all those transwomen and
transmen start detransitioning back to their "natal sex." (Especially
lesbians who decide that they've been pressured by sex stereotypes and
society to reject their butch nature and want it back.)
A topic that probably will be covered more in the future than here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transsexual#Regrets_and_detransitions
One bio where this sort of thing might be relevant is
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexis_Arquette where Alexis' well known
sister and brother (as well as boyfriend) stated to RS that Arquette was
beginning to reject the ideology and even to "detransition." So if
someone decided to take on that, obviously it would be an interesting
discussion of RS, rumor, accuracy of sources, etc.
Of course, detransitioning will be more in the younger generation of
notable personalities. Older generations often had decades to think
about it before they took concrete transitioning steps. (Though lots of
RS keep waiting for Caitlyn Jenner to do it so they can make money
covering that side of the story.)
Today a lot of sexually confused young people have been led into it by
advocacy groups, school counselors, doctors - and even parents who would
prefer their child be of the opposite sex (sometimes because they are
terrified otherwise the child will be gay!)
Then as they go into their late teens and early 20s they are becoming
more independent and able to judge how much others influenced them. Some
already are considering lawsuits against schools and advocacy groups
they feel pushed them into a decision they now regret.
So this is a whole new area with lots of personal accounts and
mainstream RS sources, though I'm sure it may be a while before anyone
safely could expand that section of the article, create a new article,
or write much about detransitioning celebrities.
