Watch this 
View More Posts Ignore
I am F2M "Transitioning" and sort of wondering i started a relationship and recently i have become more in my power as a man. My friends accept me as James and my GF does as well but when ever i wear mens clothes they freak out for some reason. I sort said it bluntly.
"What the hell are you going to do, when I have to Transition for real. (I am still waiting for a pyschartist) The thing is i act like a man, in my own way. and feel like a man. however I feel like they cant handle James.
Help please

" Talk with them about it. Ask them if they understand transgender and ask them about their fears. You should ecucate them the CORRECT way. Tell them that you're changing your SEX,NOT yourself. You'll always be you. You just won't look the same.

If they can't accept you,though,then move on. There are more understanding peeps out there. "
