        My nephew has been on T for a while now. He told his mom the deep voice was from COVID 🤣 he’s planning on waiting till after top surgery to tell her so she doesn’t kick him off her insurance. I think she’ll be supportive, but there’s trust issues between them.

          If there’s even an inkling of doubt, it feels totally reasonable to hide treatment. I hope that they will understand, when your nephew finally comes out, just how important this is.

        I’m imagining the mom figuring it out right away, while the dad is either in denial, or a moron.

        Like she’s standing there with 44DDs, in a ball gown and tiarra. And her dad is like “Sooooo, how bout them bears?”

        And she’s like “…what?”

        And he’s like “Season just started. How do you like our boys odds this year?”

        And she’s like “I don’t like the boys chances this year.”

        And it’s two unrelated conversations overlapping.
