Man. I know that TDOV has become increasingly complicated for many people as the world gets more actively hostile for trans folks and the specific genre of visibility directed at us gets more and more dangerous, but every year, something still manages to remind me there is still so much value in visibility, too.
When I came out to my parents a decade ago, my mom was not very supportive. She's not the kind of person to have ever been actively hostile to me, but for a long time she wouldn't use my chosen name and pronouns, and I remember one painfully awkward conversation in particular that hit on a lot of classic "I just don't get it" type talking points. She was and remains a devout Christian who has historically attended fairly conservative churches, and I think she had a pretty long and complicated adjustment period re: all three of her kids turning out to be queer -- and I also think that wrapping her mind around the trans thing in particular was especially challenging. I went no-contact with both my parents in 2018 for various reasons, but even after I reconnected with my dad a few years later, I was a lot more hesitant getting in touch with my mother again, due to my identity being such a wedge between us.
She's been slowly coming around, though. We're finally on good terms again and chat regularly, and I no longer feel like I have to dance around talking about trans topics with her. When we spent an afternoon hanging out together the say before my sister's wedding, I talked pretty openly about some things like anti-trans legislation in the US and abroad and the challenges it posed for me. And it felt... safe.
Today, though, I got a text from her wishing me a belated happy TDOV, with an attached graphic that is very my mother about how all trans people are "beloved children of God" (like I said, she's very Christian -- she's just also realized it's not incompatible with being a progressive). It's the first time she's ever really actively said she loves and supports me for my identity, not just in spite of it, and I am full of emotions about it.
Yes, there's an inconceivable amount of hate directed at us right now. But there are also still people learning to love us for who we are, and I find that really beautiful. Ten years ago, things weren't as bad on a structural level -- but I also couldn't imagine my mother accepting me for who I was like this. And I know we're fighting for a world where both can be true (and I really truly believe that we can get there eventually), but in the midst of all the bad news, I am going to cling to the glimmer of hope that her affirmation represents.
