How common is it to be unable to transition?

I have been looking for advice for a while on how to cope with being unable to transition, since I am disabled and reliant on transphobic family.. I wouldn't be safe transitioning, so for the past seven years I've simply tried to cope. It's never been healthy.

And I feel like I am not a member of the community in any meaningful way. I always figured there are many stories like mine, but I have never received any advice or word from people who have been through similar and it has left me feeling disconnected from the community.

I already deal with dissociation, as well as being jealous when seeing others who are able to transition, which makes it worse because being exposed to the community takes on a depressing note.

Am I wrong to think this is a common issue, to be unable to transition?

how can i soft launch presenting fem to my partner

I (MTF19) came out to my gf (afab19) like a year ago and she was super accepting and said she would be there with me no matter what as long as she’s still attracted to me. she’s bi so i’m hoping she’ll still be attracted to me on hrt but her being so accepting kind of scared me honestly and i kinda backtracked and said idk yet (if im trans) and basically im looking for ways to express myself femininely to her and basically not scare her yk. I don’t want to just start wearing a full beat and be like so how do u like this I’m just looking for ways i can be more feminine while still also being closeted to the rest of the world i guess. Because i haven’t had a chance to experiment with my femininity in the proximity of anyone else i just want to ease into it and not scare her or myself.

Advice for supporting my gender non-conforming child.

Hi all,

I have an 8yo daughter who has expressed that she wants to identify as they/them and sometimes she/they. Recently shes been struggling with other kids mocking/shaming her when she goes into the bathroom for not “looking like” a boy or a girl. Comments like, “are you sure you should be in here” and such. She also doesn’t want to wear swimsuits at summer camp because shes worried about being misgendered in her suit. I’ll also note she struggles with anxiety which we’ve been guiding her through since kindergarten.

Any thoughts or perspectives would be greatly appreciated. I’m dad by the way. Thank you!

I'm an autistic queer trans woman in South America. I wrote a comic about a trans superhero, her gf, and a mutant chicken teaming up to save Seattle from a kaiju. Illustrated by SwapTrap from India. We're having a Kickstarter to DIY a First Edition print run.

This post contains a 13 page preview. The full comic will include the full story when published!

My name is Bijhan Agha. I'm an Uruguayan of Iranian descent. I'm queer, trans, and autistic. My special interests have always included science fiction and fantasy of all kinds, including superheroes and monster movies.

Kobra Olympus is a trans lesbian superhero I created who is soft-spoken and jovial, but insecure as she's just starting to find her place in queer culture. She's a student at Seattle College's Central Campus, she makes a living as a web developer, and she pursues gymnastics as a hobby. She has been contacted by agents from the deep future and equipped with a high-tech smart phone which allows her to transform into the masked figure Agent Tha, and fight monsters to rewrite history.

In addition to her job, hobby, and superhero duties, Kobra is also dating Dorothy Diamond, a punk woman who is active in the queer community, who is outspoken, confident, and encouraging. Kobra is trying to balance her duty to the future with her need for Human connection, and Dorothy tries to help Kobra be the best superhero she can be without sacrificing their own humanity.

This issue, a giant armadillo-like creature attacks their hometown of Seattle, and they meet a strange new ally named Jack: a mutant chicken who loves punk rock and wants to help them stop the armadillo - but without violence.

Please help us bring this comic to life! We've met our original goal, and we're now on a stretch goal! We want to shower our backers with tons of bonus content!

Reward tiers include both digital and physical; single issues as well as catch-up packages so you can get the back issues and read more stories about Kobra and the other characters in her universe.

My family is having a hard time, and I'm hoping that our work as creators and storytellers will help us meet our needs. I am the author; my trans nonbinary husband, RaeRae, is disabled and works as our editor. We live in Uruguay, South America. The illustrator, SwapTrap, is a father to young daughter in rural India and has been an incredibly positive force in the queer community.

Thank you for your help in making our dreams come true of creating queer-positive and uplifting stories, and being able to afford basic necessities as a result.
