So I'm trying to figure out if my parents have any clue about what is going on my life. my parents have been exposed to two transsexuals in the past two hours. i was watching Orange is the Black episode 3 with my parents (who just started watching the series). Episode 3 largely focuses on Sophia Burset played by Laverne Cox. Surprisingly, she got no reaction out of my parents. A couple hours later, my dad is watching the Daily Show, featuring a segment on poking fun at the media for their coverage of the Caitlyn Jenner story and their intense focus on her appearance to the exclusion of her past accomplishments or serious coverage of trans* issues. Anyways, no reaction from my parents. I tried to gauge their feelings about trans* people, but I'm apparently not getting anywhere. I've left plenty of clues, I'm wearing girl jeans. I have occasionally left makeup laying around. I shave my arms and legs and wear women's deodorant, my hair is longer than they have ever seen before. I obsessively shave my face and have women's razors in the bathroom that my dad also uses. My mother has occasionally found women's clothes mixed in with my man drag in the dryer, and one my shaping panties was drying in my moms bathroom, she found it, but never asked me about it. My dad even knows i'm seeing a shrink. are my parents really this clueless, am I doing a better job of staying in the closet than I thought, or are they ignoring the elephant in the room.
