Do you even tell people? My immediate family knows because they don’t see their nephew anymore and our best “couple” friend that we go to church with. They and their daughter were also FB friends with him when he announced it on FB.
Other than that I don’t share the news to anyone. He was my pride and joy. Moved away. Got engaged. An Engineer. Friendly. Loving. How do I tell people he abandoned us at 24 yrs old.
I got emotional when I see this. Without those affirmations, will our beautiful and smart daughters be trapped so deeply in this cancerous ideology? Will they hate us this much as we are not affirming as those who care the least? 💔
If a person is not personally affected they are just completely clueless. They don't even bother to research what is happening. I was the same. Until I was forced to deep dive into this scary medicalised crazy ideology. My child thinks he knows best. That I know nothing. My friends are there for me but they cant fully understand. This is my child. Until it takes hold of your family you can't understand the pain it causes to parents. I feel powerless some days but i hope the tide will turn and giving out drugs that harm and operations that destroy will being illegal.
The author's point is very well made. Using cancer as an analogy to the "trans" illness is very effective, and I will use it in the future with the "captured" co-workers I have to deal with.
Yes. I see my daughter declining in every dimension since she identified as trans. When I happen to share that, I usually get "virtuous indifference". Then the blame is shifted to me for not affirming. If I did that they say, it would all be going fabulously.
I am so, so sorry about the abuse being loaded onto you, and about the damage being inflicted on your child. I hate the people who are doing this to you.

That’s not the son I once knew. That they knew.

Agree with you.
