My mom claims to support me since I came out, but she refuses to buy me a binder, call me my preferred name, let me introduce myself as her son, or accept that I cannot explain why I am the way I am. She thinks that I need to want to have bottom surgery to be a guy. I have tried to explain to her that I don't want to damage my parts below, but she doesn't get that. I want top surgery because I have alot of dysphoria and I don't like my chest. What am I supposed to do! She continuously points out dresses to me for graduation.
#Does my mom actually support me coming out?

Not that i'm the best person to ask, but she sounds like she's forgetting about it or purposefully ignoring you?
shes in her early-mid sixties
my mom does this too on purpose and it sucks. She said she will always support me but she says she doesnt support minors transitioning and it sucks. The best thing you can do is maybe keep asking her and maybe saying you dont want to wear a dress for graduation
That sounds really hard to deal with, unfortunately it doesn't sound like she supports you. Claiming she does is like saying "I don't eat burgers" whilst eating a burger.
