hello there has been something i have been struggling for a while
i am FTM transsexual meaning i want to be male
i am male
I have came out to my husband , friend and sister they are very supportive
but i have yet to come out to my mother i know that she wont accept it
because she thinks that anything that me or my sister do that is different from what she wants us to do is attention seeking
i mean even me cutting my hair is enough for her to not talk to me for weeks
witch i will be doing after i have been to a wedding in September
i still have to came out to my husbands family as well but am leaving that for a while yet

Hello Angel,
When you talk to your mother are you going to take your sister and husband with you? It might be a good idea, even if it is just for moral support.

It is good that you have people on your side, because transitioning can be such a lonely thing.
Good luck
