47. The Trans Uncle
That I never met my oldest uncle on my Mom’s side because he was actually identifying as a woman pretty much full-time. She was trans and my parents both didn’t know how to explain that and hoped I would never meet her until “He turns from his sinful ways”.
She’s actually no weirder than any of my other Aunts and Uncles and pretty damned hilarious at times. I could not believe my folks kept that from me long into my early 20s and for that asshat backwards of a reason.
