How do I tell my family Im a transvestite?

Answer 1

Tell them "you remember when i was younger, you said i could be what ever i want to be? Well..............."

Answer 2

I suggest you start when you have some one-on-one time with your mom. Ask your mom what she thinks of transvestites. Then talk about why do some men like to wear women's clothes.

Tell her that transvestites wish they were normal. They are probably desperate for acceptance, they just can't stop. They just feel they NEED to wear women's clothing. When they do wear women's clothing, then their brain releases a series of neurotransmitters which gives them a feeling of well-being, pleasure and self-identity. The sensation is so strong that they believe it is a part of who they are... Then tell her that's how it feels for me.

Tell her that you wish more than anything to be normal, but you've tried and tried, and now you just need to let someone know. She will ask if you've told anyone before. She'll tell you not to tell anyone else yet. She will try to protect and shield you from the others and it will work for a while.

For her sake and the sake of your family, do try to keep your cross dressing under control.

Answer 3

First of all, I think that you need to prepare yourself for the worst including the fact that they might not approve, they might kick you out of the house, or even worse disown you. Ask yourself are you really ready to come out to them; make your decision ready for whatever happens. Secondly, sit down and have a personal conversation with your family. Ask them do they love you and would they love you if you weren't a transvestite, ask them what they have against your lifestyle. As they're answering you listen to their responses carefully and try to understand where their coming from as you would want them to understand you. Have a discussion with them clearly stating to your parents that you're still the person you were before you found this out, to your siblings (if you have any) that you're still their brother, and that your sexual orientation is just a small part of who you are. Explain anything else they may need them to know and have them express their feelings so you can understand them, too. Ask them to be honest with you and you be honest with them. Good Luck!

Answer 4

Just be honest. Sit down with them and explain who you are and why you feel that way. If they love you they will accept you, it doesn't mean they'll agree or be happy with it, but at least they love you. If they don't accept it, well, just keep trucking on. You gave them the chance to love and take you as you are, now all you can do is move on.

Best of Luck!

Answer 5

that does'nt matter if they love you tha no matter what you are than they will still love you the same i would if one of my family members were so you don't have anything to worry about somtime when they are talking just tell them and they wont even realize what you said and then when you talk about it later just say i already told you that but don't be nervous to tell them what you really are they will still love you the same

Answer 6

this is going to be pretty heavy for them soo just be sure to tell them jsut because the package(no pun intended) changed, whats inside hasnt.

Answer 7

they usually can tell; if they don't talk about it, they're in denial. tell them when you're alone (not at a big party or something). remain calm and say, "i have something I want to tell you". they'll already have an inkling of what you'll say. then say it.

Answer 8

just show up to a family function in drag.
