Welcome to Dorley Hall by Alyson Greaves

Welcome to Dorley Hall by Alyson Greaves was quite an experience! Stef Riley thinks that Dorley Hall is a place that secretly helps closeted trans girls (like Stef) start new lives. It turns out that they're kidnapping men who hurt women and force-feminise them in order to rid them of their toxic masculinity.

Somehow, most of these people end up identifying as women, with a few gender non-conforming ones and a few enbies. The author is a trans woman, and based on the summaries of her other books, weird gender concepts are her brand. Still, these stories clearly won't be for everybody.

Most of Dorley residents are still into women, so there's a number of f/f couples – including one where the love interest is an actual trans woman and not a Dorley graduate – and only one m/f couple.

I understand why this story isn't for everybody. I stumbled over the force-feminise to be honest.
