There's an entire support group to reinforce and validate the bigotry and ignorance of their beliefs. Even if it's for selfish reasons, changing a viewpoint like this can be a catalyst for even bigger change and personal growth down the line, and it doesn't happen overnight. Also it's not entirely selfish, many fathers would have disowned their daughter when they came out as trans and remained as close minded bigots. This sort of change should be celebrated.
