This blatant ignorance drives me insane

Okay so this is definitely a more personal story, but this is specifically targeted at lgbtq+ ex jw’s. Have any of y‘all had some JW find out you were queer? For me, my mum had gone through a very..questionable GC of mine (which I regret, I’d been young and a piece of shit), and had found out that not only am I aroace, I’m a trans guy. Since she and my dad are homophobic af, they were livid and took away all electronics for months. Since then me and my mum have had MULTIPLE talks about my identity, but it still drives me insane by how IGNORANT JWS ARE. Over and over she tries to ask “b-but couldn’t you live a happy life as a girl and put daddy jehovah first?🥺” no? Stop trying to convince and covert me to a religion thats toxic and cultish. Thank fuck I left

im sorry but this pissed me off. As someone who’s dealt with suicidal thoughts, I can assure you ts is NOT some “serious sin” bs. In this article it’s calling suicide a mistake, as if doing so should be blaming this poor poor person who couldn’t find ANY OTHER WAY OUT. God these cult is so ignorant, it seems like they have absolutely no idea how mental health works. also I didn’t word this great but pls tell me what y’all think🫩
