Oh no, I'm so sorry…
Parents just seem to read the parts they want to hear

ive been at my job for two years now !!

Oh jeez…well I’m glad for the moment you’re okay, Swim

I hope it goes well Swim!

It sounds like maybe he's respected your request not to talk about it in person. That'd be cool. Congrats on coming out, Swim. That takes a lot of courage and I'm very proud that you were able to that despite the fear.

What Owen said!! Hopefully he keeps being respectful of it and everything works out. :D

If he's ever mean or disrespectful to you, just tell me and I will teleport over to you and light his sock drawer on fire.

I'm not usually one for arson but ^^^^^

Oho I'm always one for arson

Thank you guys so much for the support!! So far, nothing's really changed, but honestly that's good with me for now.

No problem Swim! We’re always glad to help.

Guys who's ready to set my dad's sock drawer on fire?
All we had was a Discussion Lite and I have so much wrong with what he said.

1. Refused to outright acknowledge the word genderfluid, both of us avoided using it
2. Only called it a choice
3. Said I would grow out of it basically (and become Christian again)
4. Said my brother going out of his way to say transphobic things was him preparing me for the world
5. Said his opinion would never change
6. Called it a delusion under the pretense of not having a better word
7. Would tell my mother about it (who is perfectly fine with lgbtq rights being taken away)
8. Admitted telling her would go over horribly but he would do it anyway
9. Was so much of a raging transphob the entire time
10. Said he loved me no matter what (insert eye roll here)

At least he didn't pull the 'I have a trans friend' card here (even though when he does he always dead names and misgenders her)

Swim I am so sorry that that happened…

(I say as I grab my lighter fluid and matches)

I just-
How was this not talking about it dad?

Also saying it was the internet, very cliche dad

(Wanna use my flamethrower?)

(OH MY GOD YOU HAVE A FLAMETHROWER??? HELL YES.)

I really don't know what to say…. I haven't come out to my parents, and I don't plan on doing so for a few more years. I hate people that say it's a choice, because it's really not.

You're valid, Swim! Don't let anybody let you think otherwise!! :DD

We have a bottle of lighter fluid in our shed, we need enough to fill the drawer entirely
Gasoline could work, too

I could also dip into my explosives collection. This seems like a great cause to use them for. >:D

(IT'S HOMEMADE SO NO SAFETY GUARANTEES BUT LEMME GO STEAL IT FROM IT'S PLACE REAL QUICK)

Thank you ♡
I'm just tired of my family's bs, this is why I'm moving out early

Oh explosives now? Well, I've got a firm grip on Mohave cocktails and a ton of dangerous probably expired fireworks

We're here for you Swim!! :D <3

Let's do it

You guys are the best <333 :D

You're dad is a terrible father and a bigot. I'm sorry your family is so stubborn in their hateful ways. It must be dissapointing, Swim. At the very least, you know you're breaking this tradition of hate. It ends with you, and that's something I'm personally thankful for (hehe cuz it's American Thanksgiving). You're wonderful for being your true, genderfluid self. Don't let anyone silence that.

It is, yeah… but it's what I've always expected of them. I'm just thankful he stopped himself when he did, because it probably would have gotten a lot worse. (Haha, yes it is XD).
Ya'll really are amazing <3

I'm gonna punch your dad

That's literally awful and I'm literally furious enough that I can't put it into words other than I'm going to hit him. Actually no maybe punching him wouldn't work, I have the upper body strength of a blade of grass. I'll kick him in the knees with my Hockey Player LegsTM.

Hi yes I would like to join in the destruction.
Just gonna remind you that you’re valid as fuck, Swim, sorry that your dad decided to be an ass :/

hey swim your dad can actually? fall down the stairs with his hands in his pockets

if you guys want i can hire someone to alter his life in miniscule ways until it slowly drives him insane. i know some people

or i can point you towards supply points for things such as diseased rats and/or black widow spiders to put in his underwear drawer 👀

i fucking love you swim and it hurts me SO much to see someone that provides you with life and is obligated to tolerate you disrespect your identity and shit on you like that. i'm not one to wish death on anybody but i'm just saying i wouldn't be distressed if he were to suddenly, say, catch syphilis

forgot to add that you're so fucking valid
.i can feel your validity from across the atlantic my dude

Thanks you guys ;w;
Really, it was silly of me to think it could have been different than it was
