    When I came out to my mum about being trans, she wasn't overly keen on the idea. I mean she said she was okay with it, but she didn't seem it you know.
    2 months later she's asking me what masculine clothes I want because she's buying me some next week.
    She also gave me three sports bras that are a size small to give me days off from wearing my binder, and she said she'll buy my clothes in a size 10 to be a bit baggier on me to hide my chest when I'm wearing sports bras.
    I think I'm about to cry, oh my god.

    So to everyone who comes out, I know people say "your parents will get used to it, they just need time" I know some of you won't believe them, because I didn't, I thought the worst, and I know you won't believe me. But I want to let you know, it's true, they need time to process it and think.

    I just wanted to share this with you all because I'm really happy and think I'm going to cry
