first time i tried to come out to my mother she looked me dead in the eye and said “you’d make an ugly boy” for my own peace of mind, she’s never gonna get to see just how wrong she was

my mom said something similar to me too, and now she calls me her son and defends me to non-accepting family members. don’t give up hope! but also i totally understand that urge for revenge lol

i appreciate the kind words, legit comforting to hear anecdotes like this, but tbh she is / has been abusive in a lot of drastically more serious ways so keeping contact to a minimum is necessary for me regardless. mostly just hung up on that reaction of hers for its pettiness
