My father is supportive of my transfemininity
Created on: May 20th, 2010
So, after a year and a half of trying to tell him that I am indeed a girl, that it was from birth, and that despite his fondest wishes, I actually am a girl, and would he please stop calling me by the name he would never had given me he'd known I were a girl, and instead call me Valerie, and until he did, I wasn't going to deal with him, he took the admonishment in stride.
Later he called to discuss the matter of a thousand dollar interest free loan I had extended to him last year, and how he could make repayment. He proceeded to relate his concerns to my voicemail.

Really? I mean, Dad was pretty much his own dramatic reading here. I especially love the part where he manages to forget that I would always be *boyname* to him and say that it doesn't matter to him what gender I am. Also the outrage that I, living on my own for the past 7 years, may eat my own food... okay then. Ooh, also nice that he's trying to make me feel bad about my weight while I'm down 24 pounds since New Years. Just too much fail here for me not to laugh ruefully.
Honestly this audio scared the crap out of me... I'm so glad my father died when I was still a baby and the only person who has to deal with this stuff is my grandmother. And really she can't act anywhere near as mean since she is blind and I take care of her.
But really.... I'm sorry your father is that....... fierce.

Actually, this would be the part of the phone call... well, one of many, where he takes a few liberties with the truth. Yes, I'm fat, and tall, but not nearly that fat and not quite that tall, and I have, since I started this whole giving up the pretending to be a boy thing, lost about 25 pounds. Seems like having something to live for agrees with me.
Also, there was the part where he says I've never thought of anyone else, which is neatly juxtaposed by a message last year, after christmas, where I basically spent three days at his place holding him while he cried because he couldn't deal with a break up that happened 6 months ago, where he said I was the most considerate person he knew.
