@jarocats @TonyaMarie - One of the arguments my mother used about my transition is why I wanted to "bring myself down" to being a woman.
I found that shocking and self-defeating, but it was her mindset coming from, and attemptingh to keep, a very gender-roled family.
@dolari @TonyaMarie Wow. That says everything, doesn't it? I'm so sorry.
@dolari@driveinsaturday.org @jarocats@mastodon.lol @TonyaMarie@tech.lgbt I got the same from my mother initially, before she gained the understanding that it wasn't a choice.
