trans rights babey<3

my dad keeps referring to me only as "saph" and avoiding any pronouns since i came out. i was talking to both of my parents in the kitchen and my mom started to say something about me but my dad interrupted and my mom looked confused and said, "that's what i was about to say, that she-" and my dad went, "that's why i interrupted, to avoid that." i realized he was trying to interrupt her to prevent her from misgendering me lmao. but i was still kinda confused as to why my dad won't use any pronouns at all, and after a few minutes i asked if either of them will ever actually use he/him pronouns for me. they said they have to get out of the mindset of "she" first but they'll get use to it and i feel so relieved. 
my parents have had some really transphobic idealogies before and i think they still do because they don't "understand" it, but maybe having a trans son will help them start to make sense of things. this is already major progress because i never, in my entire life, thought they would even TRY to accept me. i feel like i finally have a chance. someday, i really hope they'll call me their son.
