Went to the beach shirtless with my family for the first time in my whole life and all my mom had to say about it was, "so if I get a double mastectomy, can I go shirtless, too?" And I said "yeah" but then went on to say you could anyway, I used tape before etc. and she just did this little sarcastic cheery "embrace the patriarchy!!" in this tone absolutely dripping with malice.
it wasn't worth defending myself then and there in particular but even MY GRANDMOTHER (her mom lol) caught this comment and texted my auntie to say "(mom) is being SUCH A BITCH to jimmie!!!!" and then Grammy texted me later to say how happy it made her to see me shirtless bc she could tell how complete it makes me feel. Thank goodness for her and my aunt. I know so many people who only have moms like this with no aunties and grammies to make up for it.
when your mom is such a transphobic bitch that even grandma can pick up on it 😩 lmao
#me#prsnl#my mom spent my whole childhood painting grammy as someone who willfully cant understand & who undermines all my moms choices#but the older i get the more times i find out grammy was defending me when my mom made a huge mistake#apparently the biggest fight they ever got in. where my mom cut her off for YEARS and didnt speak to her#was bc grammy vehemently defended my MH and begged my mom not to rehome my pets as a punishment for being depressed#my mom was so furious about this mere suggestion that she and grammy didnt speak for years#my mom never told me what the fight was about. had to hear it from my auntie THIS YEAR.#i was like 14 when that went down. they didnt speak the whole time i was in high school#bc my grandma rightfully pointed out that if they KEPT taking my only comforts i was GOING to kms!!!#my mom always painted it as this like. 'no one understands my Alternative Parenting Choices' issue
