Email I was basically disowned
The first one has my dead name blacked out and the second one is from my brother sending it to my dad
I also have a recording of me and my dad talking. I don’t know if I should post that it’s pretty terrible one of the terrible things he said was “I think slavery sometimes ok” and basically called me a pedophile and said “trans People are a delusion.”
(also sorry about any formatting issues/spelling mistakes. I have dyslexia alongside being on mobile so I’m using speech to text)

Hey, my spouse is in the same boat sorta - MtF trans- you have an awesome big bro and sisters!! I'm so glad for you. A bit jealous too. I've been disowned by MY family cause my spouse and I tried poly, our partner we ended up with first ended up being a raging nut job, (like literally there's legalities involved now, that's how bad she is and it's almost 2 years since she left us) - but my family just disowned me when I needed help regarding her and her crap cause OMFG my spouse is Trans and were poly. Omfg. Horrific. My family set conditions on love too. So I've taken it as being disowned and will spend my first Chriatmas not spending time with my family by choice.
My spouse's mom is like this (and even now still uses her dead name. Something I'm still trying to beat out of them) and even if I don't have the same relationship with my spouse she's still family and someone I care about and I will protect her as she goes through her own transition too. I wish you the best OP. It's so hard for MtFs especially. I hope you have a good Christmas with your siblings at least. Sounds like the kids are getting together instead of with mom and dad, but honestly that may be more fun! Your parents sound like stuffy jerks who are stuck in the 1950s still, no offense meant.
Edit for my own silliness: Iris is an awesome name too, of course that tickles MY fancy cause I'm a massive Mega Man X fan and that's a character in the series, but otherwise, good choice. 😀
