"This is deaname, ignore her beard, her deep voice, her new masc new name and her manly personality, it has been a phase for only 10 years"

I’ve tried to tell them, if you don’t understand it, fine, but respect it and deal with it. But old people are just too stubborn. When he came out as trans, the rest of us were like “yeah we figured, congrats!” It was no surprise to anyone who saw him growing up except my parents
