transphobia + parent + surveillance
one mom was irate at the idea of me being out as trans in online communities before them which feels really unreasonable. she keeps calling it "lying" and insists she only didn't pick up on it because i was "breaking rules" as a teen

specifically i wasn't supposed to access the internet literally at all in my room by myself up until a bit over a year ago. she thinks she couldn't have not noticed unless i was in my room doing this. today she asserted that she would have installed spyware on all of my devices like another parent she knows if she thought i was being trans on the internet before this point in time

i did use my phone in bed at night once i got one because of my fucking insomnia and i'm sure she'd lose her mind about that but honestly... like i hate this. she's turning my gender into a personal attack
