“… and you’re going to need be really fucking brave for what you want to do.” I don’t understand him, he was being annoyed at me about some english stuff, like what? I’m happy about it, I think, like its a step forward from my parents like literally never talking about me being trans.

Has anybody told you lately how proud they are of you? I'm just some old lady on the internet, but my kid is trans, and I'm so proud of him for being himself, and I'm proud of you too. Your dad may have been a bit of an ass about it, but you are brave - it takes so much courage just to be yourself for anyone, and so much more so for anyone who has anything other than the rich, straight, white identity idolized by so much of society. And yet here you are, with unsupportive parents, still dedicated to being you.

I'm so fucking proud of you. ❤️
