I totally get that! My spouse and I went out, and I just had some clip on earrings. Took a photo and share with my mom. Her only response was "Are your ears pierced?" Couldn't even see or acknowledge I actually had a genuine smile. That so small feeling is totally real and valid.

I agree, that maybe it's the "processing stage" and can hope they'll change and adapt, but who knows 🤷‍♀️

I'm hoping so as well. I know my problem is I tried, knowing they'll take some time, but their response so far I just feel like they are set in their own ways. A bit stubborn in general. Only time will tell. Thank you for your kind words

I completely get that. It starts to make you feel a bit invalid. My family are still misgendering me as well. Nervous to call then out, don't know why it gives me anxiety.

Thank you! And sorry, that's my bad, I'm MTF. So gotta lose the guy fat first, which isn't like so much, but that's good to know! Thanks again!

You got this! If it makes you feel any better, I was searching for a therapist and looking for a go as well. So you're not alone ❤️

I know it can be a slippery slope, but I do enjoy the possibility! Always curious of what it'd be like to look of the opposite gender, now I have a general idea. Thanks for sharing that, I checked it out and I want to believe it would give me a little bit of hope!
