New support forum for couples where both partners are trans |
|
Reader Jane has created a brand new space for couples where both partners are trans. She notes:
I believe that these kinds of relationships have a unique dynamic and set of challenges all their own. Issues of mutual support, feeling fully accepted rather than tolerated for being trans, issues of healing from “addiction” to cisgender validation, learning to undo our own internalized transphobia and much more. It’s proving very difficult to find such a place to talk about these issues. Most places I’ve found are along the lines of “Would an MTF ever date an FTM? ?” and “I heard about a couple like that once...” not many real life couples.
A forum to discuss trans relationships, the joys and heartaches, pros and cons, social and legal issues that arise when BOTH partners are trans-identified (ie. MTF with FTM, FTM with FTM, Genderqueer etc… )
