Is there literature I can give my conservative parents to try to assuage their fears? It's mostly for my dad as I still feel like I have a chance to convince him. But every now and then he still brings up things like detransitioners and regret rates and I want to push back on that in a constructive way. What can I give him to read?

    maybe it's not a perfect example, but i really like Monstrous Regiment by Terry Pratchett

    there's also Men at Arms, which isn't nearly explicitly about gender but it does introduce a character who reads as trans coded, and the theme gradual builds through subsequent books
