      My parents put me through conversion therapy as a kid. I don't remember it, & ultimately it didn't work as I realized I was trans as an adult. But my parents still misgender me. Today they sent me a Jesse Singal piece to show the conversion therapy was the right choice.

      When I responded to my parents that Singal is a transphobe & conversion therapy didn't work for the short time it was thrust upon me, Mami's response was "we should've put you through it longer & you'd be normal now." So. The article convinced them I needed *more* torture.

      My parents have also used the Singal piece as proof that being trans is usually a phase so it's likely I'll get over it at some point (I'm 33) & that negative-reinforcement will actually help so they will continue to deadname me only now it's "to help you get over it."

      Singal isn't just hurting trans kids. He's hurting trans adults whose family wants proof that being trans is actually proof of failure & that maybe torturing your family member long enough is of therapeutic value.

      My parents were abusive, but what they did to me for being trans, they really didn't mean to hurt me there. They clearly thought they were helping me. And that's the risk w/ Singal, he feeds into this parental fantasy that hurting trans kids is good actually.

      Most parents don't want trans kids, but they also don't want to hate their own kids, so they're looking for some kind of confirmation that transphobia is in the child's interest. And Singal is just pumping out that confirmation.

          My parents will never accept I'm trans, not really. Papi at least uses my name now, Mami sometimes uses it though rarely, & I'm forbidden from using anything but my deadname around the rest of my family. Singal didn't make them transphobes. He just gave them justification.

          Fuck. I thought I could make this thread w/o breaking down but now I'm crying & I just...I just want my parents to love me, the real me, as I am, & I want a world where assholes don't keep giving my little remaining family an excuse to hurt me.

          To everyone trying to be kind: I’m adopted, & have recently discovered one half-sibling who is also trans, so I’m very aware families aren’t just blood, I just want the people who raised me to see *me*

          I don't see how they do not see this is exactly what we put cis gay kids through, and some still are making these arguments. "how could they know when they're so young" "they commit suicide because it's a disorder" "we just care about kids" etc. Don't they see what they're doing?
