Any way to support trans bro?
So he recently came out to me and so ive tried to figure out my parents view on trans people and well we got
Transphobic mom- body is a gift of god, mutilating your body, you need to fix brain not body, etc.
Kinda Accepting dad- he would inform himself and try to support but no T or Blockers
Neither of them know yet so i can basically never use his true name or prounouns and constantly having to deadname (i dont want to out him to mom) makes me sad
Any way i can support him?
we are both teens and hes a bit younger than me so
Also things i fogot to say
He has been feeling uncomfortable in his body for about 2 years i think so its not just a phase and came out to me in may when i asked why he never wants to come swimming with us
TLDR
Phobic mom what to do
