At this point I'm tempted to write an essay on spirituality and gender just to SHUT MY MOM UP.Ma'am idk what you thought you raised but it wasn't a daughter, so please stop referring to me as such!

We were visiting my father's grave, well the tree his ashes were buried under, he doesn't have tradition headstone. My mom being my mom talked to him, as if the ashes feeding the tree could talk back. And she kept referring to me as his daughter. Ugh. I'm not even sure if she remembers me being trans or if she suppressed that conversation so hard she completely forgot but it's getting on my nerves.

#personal #I think she's might be in denial herself #Maybe maybe not #I would just like her to REMEMBER #Honestly it should be EASIER to explain someone who's neither man nor woman to a religious person #What are angles? And spirits? And the soul?#What are Buddhas!? Why do you pray to Devine mothers/fathers but can't comprehend me??#At this point I'm just screaming into the void #What of genders in other cultures #Many of which have religious connotations!#WHY ARE YOU SO STEADFAST IN WESTERN IDEALS OF GENDER WHEN YOU YOURSELF ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE WHITE IS BADtm #Seriously. Both my perants acknowledge how much white Europeans hurt the whole fucking world with their colonial bullshit #And yet heteronormativity and gender roles created and held by those same people must be right
