I went the "easy route" by simply dropping "I'm trans" because I know myself well enough, that I would either chicken out mid sentence, or it would become super awkward.

Only downside is, that some people who aren't that supportive might get a little shocked, especially when theres zero clues about you being trans, and therefore you might experience some quite shitty reactions (happened like that with my mum).

honestly, that's a them problem

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

Or they might be confused, especially by the term non-binary… (definitely nothing that happened to me)

Had to explain what this means to my mother too.

I kinda want to wait long enough with my parents to a point where it has already become extremely obvious haha.

[-] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago

I wanted to do that too, but it didn't work out. Turns out I really needed to be a total girl all the time.

Damn, yeah I heard people can be completely oblivious when they already know you for a long time. We’ll see!

[-] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

Surprising how oblivious people can be. With my parents, it took me 6 months to say something. I thought it was kinda obvious I had some changes by that point (small enough that it would be easy to hide but I didn't always wear extra layers) and my brother agreed. After I came out, one of my moms commented that I "suddenly had boobs."

At 8 months, I saw another queer family member for the first time in years, I was wearing a snuggish women's tank top, and I guess she still apparently didn't notice anything either and she was immediately accepting and subtly affirming with no delay or awkwardness.

Looking forward to trying this again with a friend or two now that it's been over a year and it's a bit more obvious.

"Mom, I started taking estradiol and spironolactone" "What for?" "Uhhhh?"

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

To quote one of my favorite superheroes: "Drugs are great". Good enough as a reason in this case 🤪
