Anonymous asked: I am currently in a relationship with someone who considers themselves as FTM. For the past few months I`ve been calling them by their preferred name, as has everyone else, but I still haven`t transitioned to referring to them as male. I feel that it would make everything confusing and I`d have to keep explaining the situation to everyone, such as my family and our friends who all call my partner by their preferred name but still refer to them as "she". Am I a really bad girlfriend? :/
K: Don’t worry, you are NOT a bad girlfriend! What you and your partner have to remember is that it isn’t just the person transitioning that goes through a transition, but also your family, friends, and people you generally know go through it as well. It takes time to feel comfortable/able to us the correct pronouns, etc, so you’re doing well on that part! Speak to your partner about how you’re feeling about referring to them as male, and your concerns, and work it out together and what’s best. They may feel that it’d be good to speak to the family about this and work it out.
