>Mom starts crying because I'm still her son to her.
Dumb bitch. I'm not even trans but ignorance has always rubbed me the wrong way.
>>
Nah I'm kidding, someone always hates the idea at first, but most people come around once they see it's not as scary as they thought.

How do you encourage someone to transition when it might mean losing friends and family?

If you're that person's significant other, what can you do to offer support in the event that they are disowned?

after 5 seconds she hasn't fully accepted what's happening! how terrible!

But srsly OP, give parents time, they need it, point them towards whatever support you can find and try and talk stuff out.

You're not a girl. You're a confused young boy.

You don't.

How can a person be expected to choose to honor the fear of others over living in congruence with oneself? Truly, it would be a sign of mental illness for someone to remain in such toxic relationships.

>>990756 (OP)

Fucked up the life of the people you love.


Well done. Now go killyourself

>>990756 (OP)
i wouldn't even bother coming here about serious things like this, nobody will take it seriously.
my mother was the same way, and still is now. i don't know what to do - she says she cries because i'm going to be upset, but the only thing that makes me upset is her crying.
>>
You need to try and teach her that she never had a son to begin with. The fact is you're still exactly the same as you were before coming out, and you're appearance is only going to slightly change. All those traits that your mother loves about you are still there.
