ok but it’s my impression that transphobes don’t necessarily want trans people not to exist, the way most bigots don’t want the targets of their bigotry to disappear completely. they want us to exist as a target. they want us to exist specifically to be their victims. trans people have always existed, and always will, and when transphobes say being transgender is “wrong”, what they actually mean is “these are people i personally have the right to punish. and i will. because i want to.”
they don’t want to save us, they don’t even want to be rid of us. but they sure as hell want to hurt us.
ok but if letting your kid use a different name & different words & wear different clothing is scientifically likely to improve their health & happiness and lower their risk of suicide, whether or not they change their minds later….does it really matter whether you personally “get it”? does it even matter if you’re comfortable with it?
if you’ve got all this science telling you that letting your kid do these things is going to make them happier & healthier than not letting them….then just tell them it’s ok.
it’s not your kid’s job to be the child you wanted. it’s your job to make choices that allow them to be the happiest version of themselves. make sure your kid knows that you will love and support them no matter what gender they present as. make sure they know they don’t have to hide.
