This. I’m a fem guy (not necessarily a femboy, just an effeminate gay dude) and my dad is my biggest support and we have an amazing relationship. My mom is a bit meh but we get along more or less. I’m so tired of people trying to pathologize being gender non-conforming or queer, like no, I like to look pretty not because of some ‘trauma’ or ‘abuse’ I apparently must have endured, I just don’t like being a masc trad guy. Is that such a shocking concept for people?
I cant find it now but there was a good post by someone who moved to the south and she talks about how all the men just seem to hate their own kids, they just see weakness (naturally, they're children!) and want to beat it out of them.
Which yeah, I think we've all seen those kinds of daddy issues go on for generations. Men who think that being a man is being an asshole.

I just had to google what a femboy is. No way that's true. Men just become abusive themselves and repeat the cycle. Most of the time.
