"Do you remember coming out to your parents?"
"Sure, I was only 17. I told my folks that I was going out with a werewolf. My mother was so shocked, she didn't even ask their gender. But they got over it quickly."
"I remember coming out to my parents."
"Honey, that was 20 minutes ago."
"Yes, I know. I hope they'll be as quick to get over it as your parents."
"Well, I've never heard howling like that before. I though they'd never stop."
"They haven't stopped. Honestly, your little human ears are cute, but gosh, are they useless!"

... und weiter gings beim #CSD in #Ratingen. Das Motto dort war: "Ratingen feiert sein #ComingOut - Zeit für queere Sichtbarkeit!" War für Nico als Ratinger eine Selbstverständlichkeit, mit Frank dabeizusein, denn #PIRATEN stehen für Vielfalt in all ihren Farben.

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).

CW: GenderQuest, coming out to family (mostly +)
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.)

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.

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

Mom's response started with:
"Wow! Better late than never, for sure." She then recalled an occurrence in my childhood that left her bewildered at the time, but....
Cousin's started with:
"I dont think I could love you more than I do right now"

Came out to my mother and to the cool cousin (singular) today. Both went extremely well. I wasn't sure at all about Mom, but she was on board right away!
