Our son told us he was trans at 16.5 and is now 19. It’s been a living nightmare. I’m here if you want to compare notes or discuss anything specific to boys. I find it’s so similar to the girls stories, but It becomes a b T more complicated for a boy to wear feminine clothes, makeup etc than it is for a girl to wear no makeup, boys clothes etc.
And I don’t mean to reinforce stereotypes by those clothing labels - just trying to be concise. Of course, kids should be able to wear what they like. My son seems to think the clothes will solve his problems, however. And to do that, they’d have to be magic! His problems run way deeper than those that can be solved by changes in appearance.

Ironically it is the crowd pushing the transgender ideology that is reinforcing sex stereotypes. My son owns more nail polish than I have ever owned in my 58 years! Everything is so extreme in the opposite direction. Just look at how Bruce Jenner has gone super feminine and trying to be so sexy. We all know men or women who are more masculine or feminine than others. I believe there is a continuum within the biological gender you were born. That used to be called personality. Mutilating your body, changing your name, and going full force into the opposite sex does not change who you are inside. It is wrong to mutilate and permanently change a healthy body. This to me is the sin of this Transgender ideology being pushed. The emphasis should be to help these kids learn to love themselves as they were born. This is a living nightmare, saddest thing that ever happened to me. It has been really tough on our marriage as well. Just really sad..and not necessary.
This is my first post. I just found this board and am waiting for approval before I can see the whole forum. I am the mother of a 25 year old male that has recently told us that he is transgender. Although he is an older male it also came completely out of the blue. He has completely cut us off because we don't agree with this and do not call him Sarah. We feel so helpless!
