  • Love that you are able to have the small win of existing as a woman here, congrats! I am in a similar demographic to you, but with fewer children.

    I came out to my wife in February last year, and it was one of the scariest things I’ve ever done. We are still together, love each other more than the day we were married, and I am seeing a doctor on Tuesday about starting HRT. Obviously I don’t know how things would go with your spouse, but I hope they would at least be sympathetic to what you’re dealing with and be open to talking more with you.

    It’s okay to take things slow, you don’t need to rush anything. I wish I had started transitioning 10+ years ago, but I am so thankful for the family and life I have that allows me to do so today.

    Keep asking questions, keep being open to learning new things about yourself, and don’t settle for a new box for people to put you in if it isn’t quite right for you.
