parent / transphobia 

i feel like my one mom fails to understand that just because things i am doing or saying upset her doesn't necessarily mean that i am in the wrong. or that i need to stop doing those things. bc those things are "picking a new name" and "wanting to medically transition" and "not coming to as soon as i thouhgt i might be trans"

like she's already said she thinks i'm a confused butch bi girl. and that it's just my autism. and my androgens that i produce without medical intervention. but when i say to her "it feels like you're trying to convince me i'm not trans" she's like when did i say that? you're making shit up!

when she's acting like this while i'm at the trans stage of being very confident & secure i don't really know why she thinks that me coming to her when i wasnt really sure would have ended any way other than her bullying me into not mentioning it again. like this happened when i tried to come out as nonbinary and i've SAID this

parent / transphobia 

they both are really caught up in seeing themselves as like the ultimate progressive parents who've never made a poor parenting choice in their life. so if i have a problem with them its my fault. if they have a problem with me it's my fault for being a shitty child
