so this one girl, i’ll call her ella (19f) is transphobic, homophobic

she lashes out a lot, exaggerates things, and cannot read social cues. however, she has autism and adhd and is mentally much younger.

she also gets mad when i call a trans man “he” and she says “SHE’S A GIRL EVEN THO SHE LOOKS LIKE A MAN LOL”

she says she got her views from her parents and refuses to change because “it’s the way i am”. for someone who was mentally 19, I’d cut contact, but she’s mentally a lot younger.

    I can’t speak for you, but in my current position, I don’t have the mental space for reeducating a person like this so I kinda have to let them go and fall off the cliff as to speak. Hopefully they’ll find a way back but it’s hard to change bigots.
