What are the rules?
Hello gay people in my phone. My child (16) sort of came out as trans to me today. I have been here for the memes for a while, and ive long been a supporter of gay and trans rights. Do yall have any recommendations of resources for parents of trans kids? I want to help and support them correctly and to the best of my abilities. Looking for maybe books and communities? Thank you.
General trans community. Rules: 1. Follow all blahaj.zone rules 2. All posts must be trans-related. Other queer-related posts go to c/lgbtq. 3.
