@Tom: You ARE different. My dad got the belt. He was old school. When he was angry his face dropped and he had this pall, angry, emotionless expression -- like those evil masks in a kabuki play. Then he would start shaking. You can guess the rest.

I've never understood why people -- even well educated professional parents -- hate and fear trans kids just as if they were on drugs or in a street gang. The only other thing I can compare it to -- in sentiment if not in scope -- is "honour killing" in some fundamentalist families. It's more about how the parents are perceived in society rather than the relationship between the parents and the child.
