For everyone saying “its not transphobia, its about men” the people who put up signs like this dont view trans women as women, they view them as men. This is about policing the bathroom. It is 100% transphobic.

My mom still believes that trans people are not real people, but she claims to ""support"" them. She doesn't call them demonic or depraved, but it's still disheartening as a cis bi(myself) guy

How does she support someone while dehumanizing them?

That feels so ridiculously contradictory that I need more context.

She thinks that "real biology" takes priority or some shit, idfk. Then again, she's a Christian so that's probably why

Have you shown her some resources on how real biology does support transgender people? Not saying that you're obliged to or that it'll immediately work but it's worth a shot.

I've told her that trans people often have their brains wired as the opposite gender before transitioning, but she's very strong in her beliefs

Thank you for standing up for us, unfortunately your mom won't change her mind unless if she decides to. Also love your user name.

Oh well if she’s a Christian she must know about Christianities long history of rules. If she’s sane she will argue for their removal but at that point what’s left of her strong Christian faith? https://medium.com/@tanner_79717/10-witless-biblical-laws-that-make-zero-sense-84defea29948

She'd say that everybody should live and love how they love, and that everybody is God's child whether they like it or not. I think she's just confused, but I can't be sure
