as an n MTF in the process of getting aproved and such, I always found it odd how much my family always spent on the girls over the guys, and how reluctant they are ow to even come close to equalizing that. now, I don't EXPECT them to help pay for things or help me out(I'm well on my way to supporting myself), but I figure they would at least give it more than a day's thought before rejecting the idea outright.
For example, all three of my biological sisters underwent multiple cosmetic surgeries(some quite dangerous), all of which cost many thousands of dollars. They all receive diamonds as presents for holidays at times (how expensive, I'd rather not say...) and are constantly bought prohibitively expensive amounts of makeup. With that said, as a boy I bought almost all my own toys, all my game systems, most of my own art supplies... well you get the picture.
Now that I've brought up something even slightly controversial, it seems like all that generosity evaporated overnight... yet today my mother took one out for a shopping spree where they almost spent about 800 dollars on vanity items. It's just rather, well it's hard not to call out the blatant favortism. Yet ironically I'm constantly called the favorite by my sisters and my mother, even though it seems to be a glaring lie to me.
I don't know, I feel spoiled writing this, but it just intensely bothers me that people can so blindly treat their own family to differing degrees.
