My roommate's mom still calls her 'he' a lot, her main excuse for that is that she's old and its hard for her to change gears and keep her pronouns straight, in fact, once she said it would be like if my roommate started calling her mom George. My roommate passively aggressively started to mess with her by calling her George a few times after that, was funny.

So yeah, in other news if adults dont understand it well its one thing, but if they can accept your change openly as you be yourself without any anger towards you its much better. Trust me not everyone has the luxury of a clueless yet accepting parent

I do envy those who are still young enough for their parents to be concerned about their immediate welfare and who have always had better access via the internet to trans-related information. When I was younger (in the 80s) there was almost no information readily available.

My parents told me I shouldn't be getting so upset over getting called incorrect pronouns because there are worse things that they get told everyday by each other such as 'idiot' and '->-bleeped-<-'. Yeah, they think insults that they throw to each other like that is way worse than them accidentally saying "she/her" and I should stop getting upset over it.

Your parents don't get it. Getting upset over pronouns--it's dysphoria, really--is one of the main features of being trans. You can teach yourself not to get upset over "sticks and stones" (not saying this is easy or anything, but you can) but gender dysphoria never goes away.

I sucked it up for years and now I'm on psychiatric meds with no prospect so far of transitioning off of them. Okay? I don't enjoy living this way and I hope you don't have to either.
