I think it’s fair to say my parents have found my transition a little tough to deal with since I came out just over a year ago. But last week, we made some giant strides. Hoorah!
Why deadnaming sucks the life out of trans people
I’m very lucky that my friends have taken my “transness” on board completely since I came out last summer. My family, on the other hand, are finding things a little harder. I thought I’d write a piece about deadnaming.
Telling the parents: update
Well, maybe I was a bit too hasty with my last post about my parents’s concerns over my transition. I’ve since met them – twice – and I think we’re all in a better place now.
Hmmm, spoke too soon about the parents…
Just got off the phone to my sister – and it appears there are major concerns about my transition from my parents – and my brother-in-law. Great!
The name game – and telling the parents (aaaaargh!)
Over the past few weeks, I’ve started using Andie more as my preferred first name – and Andy much less. Add this to my non-binary Mx title, I really feel sorry for my postman!
