I Am In Support of Transgender and Genderqueer People

My youngest son who is 19, is a F2M transgender. He recently started therapy and T therapy. He has his entire family’s love and support. The biggest problem I’m having is using the correct pronouns and not using his female birth name. I’m really trying!

It's tricky when you have known him for so long by a different name and gender but I am really glad you are so accepting and supportive of him embracing his true self.. Very few people are genuinely able to do that.. I could never be my true self..

@AlphaPuppy I just want him to be happy being who he really is, not sad and depressed pretending to be who he isn’t.

@TheresaA it is genuinely heartening to hear this, I just wish there were more people out there like you

@AlphaPuppy Me too. I’m so sad for people who don’t have their parents or other family’s support.
