Hello gay people in my phone. My child (16) sort of came out as trans to me today. I have been here for the memes for a while, and ive long been a supporter of gay and trans rights.
Do yall have any recommendations of resources for parents of trans kids? I want to help and support them correctly and to the best of my abilities.
Looking for maybe books and communities? Thank you.
That last bit seems kinda selfish. I mean maybe don’t listen to me because I’m not trans and I wouldn’t know firsthand, but the world seems to be pretty shitty to transfolk.
Not that you shouldn’t support your trans kids, I just don’t know you should be wishing for something that would probably make their life more difficult.
I spose in a better world it would be no different than specifically wanting a daughter or a son, but even then gender dysphoria seems like all kinds of not fun.
Yeah, that last line, the transparent bit? Was added in the end as a little joke.
The post is pretty transparently intended as a joke using wordplay.
