Ok I just kind of noticed how weird my dad is. So my dad(m39) is always telling me(FtM12) I can't wear certain dresses or shorts because they're "too short" and it's just "respectful" when I only own things that might be a hair under my finger tips, but not by much. And I can't wear off the shoulder things because apparently our shoulders are sexual organs now! And he turns around and says he's trying to "protect me" like dude if you were trying to protect me, protect my happiness right now. If wearing something makes me happy, let me fucking wear it, now I have to wear men's shorts around my dad to feel comfortable in my own fucking skin.
Is it too weird that my dad does this?
Breathe in, breathe out
My middle name is nervous breakdown
I sure could use a friend
Cheaper than Vicodin
Fake lives, fake love
Got money but I still feel bankrupt
It's so hard to fit in
When there's no oxygen

Hi, some parents do not really care about how the children or teenagers are dressing. Then you have other parents who do care and they can only have clothes that they say you can have and go to school in. You can try talking to him about this and see how that goes.
