    I am a bisexual trans woman. The fact thay I'm not out to my mother is eating away at me. It feels like I'm lying to her and to myself. I constantly have to keep mtself in check so that I behave masculine enough as to not raise any red flags in her mind. She likes to call me her "handsome young man" and its worsening my dysphoria. any advice is appreciated. Thanks for posting

    Well, my mother would freak if I told her I was bi since I'm her pretty daughter or beauty queen so I guess we're in a similar situation as each other. (I guess) But as long as your mother is supportive of you, and you're true to yourself, I guess it isn't a bad idea to try.
    Also, good luck with coming out, I'll just wish the best for you.
