There's a pretty simple and straightforward way to make them feel and look really stupid for doing this, although it takes time and dedication: hit the gym and get fucking JACKED. Then, whenever they call you by your female dead name in public, everyone will think they're stupid.
Well I feel dumb. I read it as the mother being supportive to her daughter then saw the description and realized it was a mother being unsupportive of her son.
Because you should hear it from someone: Hey son! How was your day today? You've been looking more confident lately - it's great to see you becoming more comfortable with yourself. Hope you're doing well and taking care of yourself. Love you.
My ma said I couldn't be trans because I didn't care about *Checks Notes* grooming my eyebrows. Specifically because I didn't want someone else doing it for me at a salon.
...does she think that no man ever gets his eyebrows trimmed? It's pretty far from being a meaningful concern of mine, but it's something I've absolutely been offered (and occasionally accepted) when getting a hair cut.
I guess it's also possible I have the scenario reversed and she thinks no woman gets this done, but I feel like that doesn't line up as well with the assumed stereotypes here.
Or I guess another option is she thinks every single (insert transitioned gender) must do so.
Right, I'm MtF, and figured I'd at least try to come out to my ma before I took my first DIY injection.
She thought I was kidding, then the stuff came in the mail and she thought I was hysterical, then we had a long conversation about it and now she thinks I'm confused. Think it'll turn out fine with more time but she did tell me that every single woman trims their eyebrows and I couldn't be trans because I hadn't been.
Hey bro, it sucks; they themselves are too lame for that healthy masculinity of you.

Or get a haircut that looks like male pattern balding!
as someone with male pattern balding, this is physically painful to read
Well look at it like this, we're both undeniably and effortlessly masculine! Think of that next time someone calls you a feminine insult.
i don't care about being masculine i just want to pull my hairline back down like pulling a toque over my head..
YOUR HAIRLINE. GIVE IT TO ME.
wouldn't finasteride be an option? it does that kinda

welcome to manhood, here's your new mommy issues
“You were supposed to breast boobily to the stairs and tit downward!”
They say, as he pecs pectorily to the stairs and pecs downward.
May you have the strength to persevere!
Hang in there bro, it gets better.
That sucks dude. 🫂 I hope you have a stellar day despite them.
mrrrreow :3 🫂🫂
Sorry dude, that sucks. Hopefully you can get your feet under you soon to get your independence.
Poor guy

Thank you!!! :D
Ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-CHERRYBOMB!
Sweet song with a weird backstory.

The irony of the etymology for "hysterical" in this context is not lost on me.
Woof :c
