y'know my dad does seem to vaguely comprehend the concept of t4t but seems convinced that if i do end up with a trans woman i'm obviously going to immediately get pregnant and change my appearance and personality completely. yet in this scenario he does not seem to think the woman would detransition, just me. i think it's just because all the trans people he's known are middle aged trans women so the concept of a middle aged trans woman is like, normal to him, but a middle aged trans man he can't picture. also, misogyny, mostly it's just misogyny.
#he's like nice about it at least he's not walking around going So when your biological clock starts ticking and you suddenly become a woman#he's just said shit like that when interrogated by me about what his Real Actual Issue with me transitioning is#(as someone who directly blocked it but also says he supports it and trans people on the whole)#and it boils down to Well you won't actually be man (i don't care abt that which he does seem to get)#and more fundamentally Well I can't picture you as a happy adult man only as a woman#and also some of the cis disgust towards an ~unnatural~ body although him finding out i'm intersex helped a little there#like there's this one picture of him in high school that looks exactly like i did in high school pre-T and i think that helped him#but on the whole every time i try to talk to him about it he's like well i won't stop you but you will inevitably regret it and also I won't#go out of my way to support you whatsoever. which does suck.
