The First Step


I have talked with many, many Transgendered individuals on this site and others about their early days in the process. It is almost unanimous that the First Step, telling your family, is the most difficult and stressful time in the Transition process.

I spoke with a divorced friend last night who has wanted become Female for years but has never begun the process because she can not bring herself tell her of her strong desire Transition womanhood. This is so common a obstacle that many will never realize their long time desire.

In my personal case, I didn’t have a family deal with when I decided Transition in my late 20’s. My mother died when I was 20 years old and I never know who my father was. I don’t have any siblings either. My only concern was the reaction of my coworkers and managers at the office. A small matter compared approaching one parents or with the news that you want Transition another gender so my experience is totally different and was much simpler.

Some I have talked with about their Transition choose to completely abandon their family instead of confronting them with their aspirations for gender reassignment. This most have been unbelievably difficult but it does give some insight to how strong the yearning to transition can be for some.

But, what I have learn in talking to other Transgendered is that once this barrier is overcome, they have been relieved of the greatest stress they ever had. The First Step is the most difficult to take but also the most rewarding.

I believe explaining to your your desire to Transition is very emotionally difficult. It is natural for a parent not to want to burden their with adult problems or complexities.

But what I believe is lost when dealing with your teenage are two simple facts;

They love you the most and therefore want the best for you. This is just as you would support an offspring in their endeavors through life.
Today’s younger people (teenagers and up) are more in touch with the changing world than you might believe. Social media has exposed them to so much they have become much more worldly than many adults.

Just as they have become more tolerant and accepting of various gender fluidity in their peers they tend to support the same within their own family unit. I believe it actually is easier to discuss these matters with teenagers than older people who probably have unfounded biases.

In all cases, teenagers or adults, they will arrive at a level of acceptance when your decision is properly and carefully explained to them. Take out the emotion and be factual and honest with them.
