Good vibes. My mom finally read my coming out letter and nothing but good support so far. Probably going to talk to her more tonight.

I went with the presentation with saying I'm trans, and the response from my classmates was actually pretty good. I didn't get any hate, but I didn't get any "oh so you want to be a boy?" questions either. Thank you! I appreciate it so much.

Woo! Congratulations! I hope the positivity continues :3-Lizzie

I'm doing an introduction project for school, and I'm not out as trans yet. I planned to put that I am trans on the presentation, but I keep rethinking it now. I plan to come out to my parents soon, so I'm not too worried about my parents finding out, I just don't want people to not believe me because I haven't started my physical transition aside from wearing masculine clothes. Is this a good idea?

I’ll have to say that it’s completely up to you. If you want to come out, it’s your choice. If you fear that you mightn’t be received well, then I don’t think so, but it’s my opinion. Most of my friends who are out in school have very little difficulty, but i live in Ireland, so it mightn’t apply to wear you live.-Lizzie

Is it possible to be a drag queen and FtM? This show i watch just makes me so chill whenever I have dysphoria like it takes my mind off it cause I see their outfits and Id just love to be a drag queen and I even practice walking like one tbh

Short answer: yes. Why would being FtM exclude you from being a drag queen?

I want to come out to my mom as being trans but with being so feminine, I feel like she won't take me as seriously as if I was more masculine. I just want her to take me seriously.

Im 15 and really want to come out to my mom and dad but I just have so many doubts My dad is against men crossdressing but is LGB friendly and my mom is LGB friendly but I have no idea if they even believe the transgender community exists. Any ideas?

like i said to that recent anon, why not casually bring up some trans people in the media and see how they respond? and i mean this isnt a given but usually if theyre lgb friendly they’re t friendly too but not always! -Z

afab -> assigned female at birthdfab ->designated female at birthamab -> assigned male at birthdmab -> designated male at birth

iafab -> intersex assigned female at birth(follow the pattern of the rest)

cafab -> coercively assigned female at birth(follow the pattern for the rest)
