  1. CW: GenderQuest, brief cancer mention, coming out to family (mostly +)

    Brother and I also had an honest-to-god phone call yesterday, which went very well!

    He knows he was an ass and unsafe to me almost all of my life, but has consciously been working on his character arc in the last four years or so (relating to first cancer diagnosis).

    Came out last night to in-laws. They were the last and most potentially problematic of the people I interact with regularly and feel the need to contact individually.

    I created a group chat with FIL (right-wing asshole), MIL (right-wing, but not asshole), and Jalan, and came out.

    Jalan had a follow-up already prepped. Including this:

    "If you have questions, you're welcome to ask me. But treating [Linda] with respect and kindness is the price of admission into my life."

    I love her....

    MIL's response was positive, just asking for room for grace and getting name and pronouns correct, especially early on..

    FIL's was brief and neutral. But Jalan really hadn't left any room for them to be negative in response.

    So family has ranged from a couple neutral responses to a lot of overwhelmingly positive ones. Winning!

    (This also left me room to finish changing over profiles on different social media, since everyone who will see them who needs an individual message has one.)

  11. I don’t remember how I started. I just remember that at some point the words were out, sitting in the room with us, and I couldn’t take them back.
    She didn’t say anything for a second. The TV kept talking to no one.
    Then: “Are you okay? Do you want to talk? I’m here for you, you know.”

  16. CW: GenderQuest, family acceptance (+++)

    Worth noting, he also out-and-out apologized for making it harder for me to be 'me' when we were growing up.

    The whole response was better than I could have hoped.

    Today, my brother was the last of the immediately family I came out to.

    I didn't know what to expect. He's always been two-thirds an asshole, and bullied me a lot when we were kids, even teens.

    His response was beautiful.

    I am loved.

  26. « Je me répétais toujours la même chose : pas toi. »

    Pendant des années, j'ai cru que me taire était la solution la plus simple. Je pensais préserver les autres. En réalité, je protégeais surtout l'équilibre que j'avais construit autour de ce secret.

    Mon nouvel article. Celui que je n'étais pas encore prêt à écrire.

    Vos retours m'intéressent. Partage apprécié.

  28. CW: Article parlant de coming-out et d'homophobie parentale

    Je poursuis l'exploration de mes souvenirs... Je parle dans ce nouvel article de coming-out et de ma première bande dessinée réalisée lorsque j'avais 15 ans et qui en disait déjà long sur mon orientation... et aussi l'expérience douloureuse de l'homophobie parentale...

    Comme d'ordinaire, vos retours sont les bienvenus.

  41. Came out to my 32yo son as trans, since we were having a decent (text) conversation. Went ok, which I wasn't confident of. He said he's glad I'm happy.

    That's a win.
