Read the muthafucka in Hank Moody's ( Californication) voice and style - makes it so much better and something Hank would definitely say.

Kids will try anything to get out of taking the trash out. /joke

Sorry we were looking for "mom and dad, I'm...done with the dishes" now back to unloading the dishwasher and then do your homework

You are so virtuous and generous! Before pardoning him, did you realize he switched to a feminine pronoun ay the end, showing the change?
Daddymememaster1
Shhhh - their 2 brain cells are working overtime already.

This was the right reaction. Now get to work kid.

I remember in HS when a friend came out to me as trans, my reaction was "Okay, but you can't have another ice cream"
I didn't pay for the treats being 16 and jobless and my mom would be upset if too many of her Klondikes we're gone.
Metlahaed
I can’t for the life of me understand why anyone would shun or hate a gay/trans kid. There are so many better reasons to do so…
BenjaminMu
If you don’t treat them different, how will they know they’ve transitioned? Start only paying him 78% of his allowance.

Uhh so why is everyone cool with the dad misgendering his daughter? "It's a fun narrative device" doesn't excuse violating her identity.

love that even the sentence trans'd

My brother came out as trans a few years after my wedding. She should have been my maid of honor dammit.

Plot twist: They said "trains" and just wanted to let you know they can transport more than garbage.

Not gonna lie....at first glance I thought it said trains. :/

I love the change of pronouns mid-sentence.

I almost got upset because I thought they went from respectful to not. ?

It’s better than nothing, but could have been done more tactfully had they started with “My kid came out as trans…” and avoided using he/him
tillie350
I read it as an intentional kiss goodbye to the 'son' and immediate acceptance of the daughter. I thought it was beautiful.
koolkat420
I saw it like that as well. Kiss bye to the son, then say hello to the daughter.
dottedglass
Plot twist he was talking to his wife.
DorMin2
I get it but as a trans person myself I don't like it and I would be really uncomfy if my parents posted something phrased that way
Veraatje01
That's fair. Everyone's different. One friend doesn't wanna discuss it at all, the other describes her new genitals as her silicon pussy.
My thought too. I’m getting downvoted, but your sentiment is shared by most trans people I know a well.
sunyudai
I know of trans individuals on both sides of that fence. From my perspective, the dividing line seems to be between those who see their...
true selves as a separation, a new person versus those who take the approach of "I have always been thus and am no longer hiding".
Both valid ways of handling their past selves and transitions, but it makes for two different ways to determine what is 'respectful'.
Wye734
Working at GameStop as the ASM a GA came out to me during closing procedure. I told him, "Okay, get back to vacuuming." When he came out...
to the SM the SM offered him Time off.
TheMaXX37
I assume you've been promoted to Guest since then? ASL here.
No, turned down the Dead-End SM job making less than 40K a year for 60+ Hours a week and got a really nice job in IT. Please, do yourself a
favor and go somewhere better. GameStop pays shit, treats their employees terrible and actively keeps their employees from growing. Ask...
I do still enjoy it, I will not be staying for a long time. It made me realize how good I am at customer service though. Cheers.
any SM, "How many years of college did you complete before you quit to be a SM?"
Betterbecauseofthem
Appropriate response
AghorSaintSoundsCoolToMe
Depends. If I were coming out with tears in eyes, I'd prefer he plain says 'I accept you, gender and sexuality makes no difference'.
FiftyShadesOfTiramisu
Except for the misgendering.
Birdshateme
Oh for God sakes
vegivamp
A little leeway when it's still fresh. Adapting takes time, people make mistakes out of habit.
Beepity
I see what they were going for, to show how the new info changed how they saw their daughter...but yeah, agreed. There are better ways 1/2
To demonstrate support, like "my child told me she's trans and actually my daughter," that doesn't involve misgendering her 2/2
MaximumMarks
When did he misgender, though?
He refers to his (likely made-up) child as both male and female in the same post. Son / he at the start, she / her at the end. Which is it?
I get that it's a joke, but it still perpetuates the idea that someone is one gender right up until they come out as the other. You thought…
they were a different gender, the one you assigned them at birth. Turns out you were wrong. Don't say "My son came out as trans" when ...
BishlamekGurpgork
I mean they switch halfway through, so I assume the pronoun use and switch were both intentional.
Sure, but if he were talking about an actual trans person that'd be a shitty thing to do.
Honestly . . . He changes pronouns the exact point in the story where he learned. I think it's supposed to illustrate how unimportant
Labels like that are, and how little it takes to respect them. Granted I'm not trans, but as a storytelling tactic, even if we assume these

I didn't realize I was trans until I was like, 24... So not always the case
license2kilt
My son came out to me as trans when he was 16. Two and a half years later that he felt safe enough to tell me still means so much to me.
idekwut
Certain factors like school bullying can lead to such reticence. Delayed reveal is not always a reflection of the parent:child relationship.
Feralkyn
I hate this and wish people would stop spreading it around. It basically tells parents whose kids came out later in life that they're shitty
parents, *regardless* of the reason. It's bullshit and presumptive.
SideEffectsOfJuice
Fucking thank you. Just blame the parents! It's easy!
Corrodias
Interesting point. I even know one trans woman who didn't even consider the possibility until she was over 30, not because her parents were»
the unsupportive type (which they are, and they've been rude about it since) but because the thought that she may be F didn't occur to her.
ILeftMyUsernameInMyOtherPants
For a while after we met my SO thought she might not be F after all bc she was using me as a comparative. When she finally came out to me>
phukerstone
i love my daughter. if she felt horrible in her own body and needed to live as my son, i would love the hell out of my son.
Dankking
I love my daughter too and I’d love her no matter what. But I’d teach her to love herself no matter what too. I just want her to be happy
And if she isn’t happy being a girl. Then I hope she finds happiness being my son.
true true, i had meant being trans as the reason for the unhappiness, but if it was something else it should be dealt with.
I remember begging my mom for liposuction because I was fat and unhappy when I was like 13. I’m a dude. Never got it. I’m still fat. But /1
I’m pretty content now. Idk if I would have been happier with the procedure or not. I’ll never know. Hated myself for a long time.
Machi4vel
He‘ll still have to take the trash out
That's illegal in quite a few countries
Hey, as long as nobody gets pregnant I'm not judging.

Damn the jokes are not hitting in this neck of the woods huh?
Eh. I'm not here for the approval of strangers ?
Thats good!
Be gay, do crime motherfucker
MAup
That pun is kinda funny and not at the same time as its true
Guys I was joking about incest, not the sex change
Ryanator50
Well if we can't tell what the joke is, it fails as a joke.
DSREX
Why so many down votes, it is just the truth not a slander. People are still trying to make it illegal again in the US, still fight time.
Then those countries don't deserve to exist. Same goes for texas.
DameDePiques
Aww, why the downvotes, did no one get the joke?
cbmech7
Imgurians have a dark sense of humor but I guess that’s where they draw the line, lol.

Usually the only "dark" jokes you don't get downvoted for nowadays are about killing yourself

He’s pointing that we live in a very sad time in which morality and legality don’t coincide all this in a pun. Or he’s just a dick.
I choose to believe both are true
GPPandora
I may be wrong, but I think it was a play on words turning it into an incest joke because that's where my mind went after reading it
That's where mine went too. So either we both have very twisted minds, or humor is dead on Imgur.
