Yet another mom of a RODG girl who never showed the slightest indication of any sort of gender dysphoria for 11 years, then out of the blue in summer 2021, one day after a shopping trip for vacation where she chose dresses and cool neon eyeliner for vacation, she ordered herself a binder on Amazon, told us she was nonbinary which has now moved to "gay transman?" I won't re-gender her pronouns when discussing her in this forum.
I look at photos before my child started this nonsense and see a happy kid with ADHD and some anxiety issues, but with a sparkle and a personality based in something other than "being trans." Over the last year, she's gotten interested in scenecore/emo style of dressing and the only photos of her that I have where she looks happy since this transition mess are when she feels good about being dressed in an awesome emo style outfit, usually based in a dress or a skirt.
So she's a gay transman who crossdresses? Doesn't that come full circle back to being a straight girl?
I know there's no magic words to snap her out of this, but I do look forward to having access to what other members may have had success with in getting through to their daughters that not liking body changes in puberty doesn't mean you're a man.
