    So... I'm thinking of coming out as bi-gender to my friends soon but I'm really not sure how I'm going to take it. A guy recently came as trans and people had mixed reactions, only some were directly transphobic, most were just being a little odd about it, almost having trouble understanding how to use his new name and different pronouns. This worried me, if they're 'iffy' about someone being trans then how are they take me coming ot as bi-gender which I doubt any of them have even heard of.

    So, basically what I want to do is 'ease' everyone into it, just 'drop some hints' ect. What are things I can say to do this? Any advice much appreciated!!

    Thanks in advance!!! :icon_bigg

    Try getting unisex clothes and a unisex hairstyle. So long as you feel your comfortable. Good luck!
