You need to be patient with it. If people don't understand anything about transgenderism in the first place, it takes a lot of effort for them to try to wrap their heads around how that could happen. For me it took around five years for my mom to see me as my real gender, and she was one of the good ones.

It's hard, after all. These are the people who changed your diapers and gave you baths and tried to save you from situations that would cause you suffering. It took a few explanations before I could convince my mom that it wasn't something she did, but rather an unlucky roll of the prenatal environment dice. She's coming around, and I can accept that she's probably never going to see me as a boy when I was a child. ...I don't blame her for that, since I'm a little more agender-leaning than I am masculine, and that's especially true for my childhood years.

Just keep doing what you're doing, anon. It'll click, eventually.
