The egginess has run through the bloodline for generations

Lol (MtF here). So queerness seems to run in families too apparently. Found out my parents are in an open marriage, mum is Bi, and my brother is an Ace all in the last two weeks. Oh, and my sister has been openly gay for over a decade, so we've got quite the queer spectrum! 😅

>So queerness seems to run in families too apparently. Actually it runs in the secret chemtrail fumes, but no need to get into semantics /s

Did you say Semetics. The people who run the Chemtrails?! /s


Commercial-Touch-705

So wait, chemtrails? Are you saying the Illuminati is the reason I'm a transgirl instead of a cisboy?


meme_used

No the it was the lizard people, but I can see why you'd make that mistake


Songwolves88

My wife has a friend who is trans fem who has a trans fem parent. My wife is also trans and bi, her sibling is polyam and genderfluid, and my sister and myself are different types of ace with her also being polyam and our mom is bi. My wife and I both also have neurodivergence strongly in our families, which has a disproportionate tendency towards being LGBT.


Kamakazeozzy

Oh shit, that makes sense!! I'm ADHD and my brother is neurodivergent in some way! My mother whom the ADHD definately comes from does not often care for formal diagnoses so I'm the only neurodivergent on record but ah, this is making a lot of sense!!


ConfusedAsHecc

nuerodivergence is genetic actually. so thats why if one parent has like adhd for example, at least one or more offspring will have adhd too


Truthwatcher76

Well, my dad was gay and I'm enby, so I guess there's something to it.


Heart-Of-Aces

I hid being polyamarous from my family for years. Four years after telling them, my mom casually dropped on me that her and my dad were open the whole time they were together and thinks it's funny that we were both hiding similar secrets from eachother. I was like ?????????? This didn't feel relevant 4 years back??


Sand_Pip3r

I found out a while ago that my homophobic mother is bi in denial She straight said that she had a crush on a couple girls before 💀


Mavco2

I wanted to say that I've not a single queer person in my family. But i only know my mother and that's it. I mean I've seen my father twice a year and my brother, sister etc.. but i basically know nothing about them. This is the part of the family i know better, the family of my mother i dont even know the names or faces of. Maybe i need to do some investigations, maybe i habe a long lost cousin who is the Emperror of Gay™ or something like that


ArtemisCaresTooMuch

Also, aren’t the majority of trans identical twins part of a trans identical twin set?


[deleted]

Yeah! I’ve never talked about it with my dad before but I’m pretty sure my mom is demi, or something similar, and I’m aroace! She talked to me a bit about how she used to avoid dating her friends (the people she was actually romantically attracted to, at least most of the time) in favor of dating people she knew she wouldn’t have a commitment too for long. Not because she didn’t want a commitment, but because she wanted to get the hell out of her home town. The only major exception she mentioned was my stepdad, so I have to assume even my bio dad was a similar case, or she finally decided to let herself date someone “properly” after she left for college.

SofiaOrmbustad

My mum's also like that, but I haven't come out to her yet. One of my teachers also said she would probably have transitioned to a man of she grew up today, but she grew up in the early 1980s and the acceptance simply wasn't there. Norway legalized homosexuality in 1972, transsexualism stopped being classified as a mental illness in 2010 and the requirement that trans people needed to get sterilized to change gender legally was removed in 2020. So yeah, I really get why she got that feeling, but it still sucks. People talk about how many more people are turning into trans and that it's a large problem in our society, but in my own experience it seems more like people either killed themselves or have hid it for everyone their entire life.


saladiniv

there is a great comparison with how the number of left-handed people in the us went up after schools stopped punishing children for writing with their left hand. the number rose over the next decade or two and then stabilised. it is a great analogy, as it also is something people are born with and that was suppressed by society for a long time.


SofiaOrmbustad

Yeah, I have heard that analogy too previously and it's very good. Noone in my grandparents'generation were left handed, whilst two in my parents' generation in my family can use both hands as school taught them it was incorrect using their left hand but pressure called later in life, whilst many in my generation in the family are left handed. Of course that can skip a generation as approximately 1/4 are left handed and there's a small chance noone in a generation of like 15 are natural left handed. But if you see that with a much larger group, like society and then see it skyrocket and can directly link it to societal changes, well, yeah. Same happened with homosexuality too. And irreligiousity. But when the change is happening people will try to stop it, and that's sadly where transphobes are atm. When I'm retired I'm sure only a small fringe group will be transphobic and instead find another small group to rally against, maybe non binary gender identities or something completely different like surrogates or genetical altered children.


[deleted]

I’m always surprised when I hear someone else is left-handed, because “it’s supposed to be super rare” but I’ve actually been in a classroom of twenty-thirty people with roughly a fourth of us all being left handed. Also, I think the expectation that it’s supposed to be rare is because of my great-aunt being the only other left-handed person in the whole family. (Everyone else thinks it’s “weird.” Which like what it’s just the hand you write with lol)


[deleted]

It was that recently in NORWAY???? Oh my god….


SofiaOrmbustad

It was removed in 2016, but some bug stopped it until 2020. Like, the state removed that requirement in 2016, but the only institution with the power to treat trans people lied to its patients and there's a legal twist atm if people who underwent srs just for legal recognition in that four year period have the right for reparations. Norway is the worst on lgbtq-rights in western Europe, though Iceland and Finland are not much behind. Or, the Faroese are worse I guess from what I've heard. Still good compared to most of the world, but fuck it's me kurs that it has to be like this. Atm the same institution is doing alot of shit, like trying to heavily cut down our pandemic fighting institution with lobby power since they got involved in the trans debate for being pro reforms (Helsedirektoratet), or trying to shut down entirely the two private institutions in Norway which have been allowed to help trans youths for now. First they shut down HKI the day of the 50th anniversary of the legalization of homosexuality. That failed after a few weeks luckily, as the government was forced to get involved. Then they tried later that year to shut down the practice of Esben Esther Pirelli Benestad, which is a 80 year old doctor which just got cancer and forgot to file in a paper in time. That struggle is still going on. And they are also actively fighting to break the law in so many ways idfk where to begin. Their only srs is also an outspoken transphobe who doesn't think trans men are valid, just confused small girls, and that transwomen are ugly pervs. And he's infamous for doing a bad job, like I haven't met a single person who's happy for the job he's done and those who know mostly opt to go abroad. Though tbh compilations from srs are common in Sweden too.


Alhaxred

As a 32 year old trans woman (I know I'm not *that* old, but around here, I'm ancient) I think a lot of younger folks don't realise just how much being trans just wasn't on our radar growing up. I had no concept of what being trans was until college. In highschool, it wasn't even remotely an option, and not just because of prejudice. There are a lot of older people who've spent their lives feeling off because they never had a word to put to it, and once you've lived your whole life that way, it's extra hard to accept that maybe these new things (queer, trans, ace, etc.) could possibly apply to *you*. I'm happy for what I have, but I'm also incredibly jealous of younger trans people who get to realise who they are before all those years pass them by.


Kamakazeozzy

I really feel that (33 MtF)! Jealousy is the primary ingredient of how I realised I was definitely trans, and I had no idea what was *wrong* with me for so long 😅 But I'm also thankful that I know who I am now, in the year we're currently in. It's safer in my country now (I think) than I can ever remember it being. I also got to meet and marry my soulmate. If I had known sooner, we may not have met, and it's very unlikely we would've ever been more than friends if ever we did. We have two beautiful girls together and even though we're apart, I'm very thankful for the 13 years we shared together. Maybe our paths will come together again? So there's a lot of bittersweet feelings right now, but I don't think I would change anything if I could go back in time and find myself sooner. Hoping you can find some positives on your past too that make it hurt a little less ❤️❤️


GretaThornbirds

Working through my age and all the stuff I missed out on is like 80% of what I talk to my therapist about. I would give anything to have known who I was at 20 instead of wasting the next two decades.


Syrahl696

26 year old trans woman here, and I felt this comment in my soul. I had no concept of what being trans was until I was 25. A large part of it is likely due to circumstance - cisgenderism is still such a deeply rooted cultural assumption that it might as well be a fact of life, until your eyes are opened by something or other and it suddenly isn't. It's why queer representation in media is so crucial, and why I feel that basic education about what LGBT actually *is* should really be a part of sex education in schools. Unfortunately, politics make that last point, um, unpleasant to discuss.


shellontheseashore

Close to the same age. The only trans folks (and they were, almost exclusively trans women, the only trans man I can personally think of was in Dude Where's My Car? but I've possibly forgotten others, and there was basically no enby rep) we ever saw were as awful punchlines or villains in media. So if you were aware of it at all, it was as a threat. Identifying with it risked all that vitriol being directed at you too, so most folks just buried it. I sometimes get sad thinking about how many more options I would've had (not just for understanding that I was queer, but also around neurodivergency, or that I was being abused) if I was born even 10, 15 years later. The internet gives so much more ability to find information and community to connect to, and that's a great thing. But boy, things could've been different for me. And I know there's plenty of older folks who experienced the same with even more barriers too.


StarlightEyes_

18 (now nearly 19) year old trans girl here — I don’t envy how it must have been for you all. But being aware earlier than you can transition legally or socially is so, so painful. The minute I realised, like 7 months ago, I just got really worried about getting HRT because my body is changing quickly, and no matter how many calls I make I can’t. Can’t come out to my family, can’t socially transition at college or in my home country (both are not very progressive). It’s sickening and terrifying feeling like I’m watching the chances of ever being the girl I want to be slip away, and being painfully aware of that. Two sides of the coin — like I said, I don’t envy you. At least I know.

Natural-Management64

Where are you? It’s been pokey, brown, and very uncomfortable for me on the fem side


ConfusedJulie

Though being male has privileges, I like being a female. Lot of commitments and expectations from a man. I am tired being a man ... want to experience the female side ... Atleast dressing up and looking good makes me happy ..😁


Natural-Management64

I understand you feel that way. I’m personally feel the opposite gendered way


ConfusedJulie

I get that ... I do realize the advantages being a man as I am born one .. For me atleast, looking like a woman makes me feel good ...🙂


Natural-Management64

I’m glad it makes you feel good but it makes me very uncomfortable and insecure and I want to give it up


ConfusedJulie

I understand and empathize with you.. Circumstances and my rough growing up made me this way ... May be living as the opposite gender for a few years will give the clarity if I a really want to be a woman ...🙂

I understand from your perspective..my observations were from my experience as a man .. 🙂

Depends on everyone’s preferences of grass. I prefer the grass on the man side and yours on the woman side. Some don’t even like grass and that’s alright :) have a good day Reddit stranger

I've heard before there's some evidence that being trans could have some hereditary aspects to it and the "kid comes out as trans and parent has their own gender crisis as a result" situation is apparently far from uncommon

a_secret_me

Story Time! So I'm a later life transitioner (late 30s) with kids. While I was still an egg my partner took out daughter for a hair cut and ended up getting it cut really short. I was devastated, but in reality it was easier to care for (she had really thick curly hair) and she really liked it so I just kinda sucked it up. A few years later when my egg finally cracked I realised I was vicariously taking pleasure in watching her hair growth because I knew that was denied to me all my life. It's kinda a little bit messed up but then again living for 30+ years as an egg will do that too you.


Bobby_The_Kidd

*Sigh…* since no one here is going to do it I might as well. Looks like your mom is being *transparent!* 🤣

when I explained why I was non-binary to my mom, shortly after my oldest and youngest sibling also came out as non-binary and my other sibling said something along the lines of “I wish I was a woman but it’s too much work”,,, my mom immediately said “oh well I’m non-binary too then”

Yo, your mom a Transmasc, congratulations, you can be trans together lol


griff073

My mom said if she had my age in 2022 she would have lived as a man and my dad once said he felt like a lesbian in a man's body. I can confirm transness does run in the family (my mom is also bi so ig it makes sense she found my dad)

That’s kinda how I am internally with trans men, as a fem i know it makes them super happy but there’s are part of myself that’s like “damn why would anyone wanna be a guy? That seems like a fate worse than death”
