I never told my grandpa bcos he’s old asf and has memory issues. He’s not a problem but the amount of explaining that would have to happen just isn’t worth a few years of misgendering by one person (for me personally). He asked me if I was lesbian when I first cut my hair but there have been no questions or discussions since
or if calling is too big a leap (and, man, i remember how that felt) they do what’s called youth drop-in enrollment days? wednesdays between like 4:30-6:30 iirc, call them and clarify, you just walk in, fill out an intake form, and get set up with a doc through them that’ll help you get access to transition care.
speaking as a lioness who worried about those same things before i transitioned, the lioness should consider that the half-life she’s living in the closet rn isn’t really much of a life at all, that the effects of estrogen don’t really even start to show until a few months in, and that grandparents tend to be woefully unaware that you’ve done a transition. i have Tits now and my grandparents just think im a gentle man. whatever. they don’t need to know.
