Heartbreaking but so true. Like Masoner said here, you do gain control of your own life as an adult and it gets SO MUCH BETTER. Hang in there kids, there's a long and beautiful life ahead of you.

Somebody needs to tell Masoner to start thinking about gender. That story does *not* sound like a gay boy, it sounds entirely like a trans girl. Like, it would be hilariously ridiculous how stereotypically trans it all was, if it wasn't for the very real, very tragic consequences. As it is, it's a horrific example of trans genocide in miniature.

Have you seen the movie. 1946 the mistranslation that shifted a culture. it's out on netflix. about how the word homosexual. was a mistranslation. of two words meaning child molester and pervert this was done by company in U.S. that does bible translation's. they were aware of the error but left it in. check out the documentary. originally the word homosexual was coined by a gay man in Germany. that's interesting research too. because of the way he used the word. All of us who have been harmed by this mistranslation. need to know. our families beliefs are formed out of error
