navigating gender identity conversations with family

so, over the weekend, i had a conversation with my family about my gender identity. it was nerve-wracking, to say the least. has anyone else been through this recently? i've realized that while some of my family members were super supportive, others were a bit... confused. it's like they wanted to understand but didn't quite know how to approach the topic. i ended up sharing some resources with them, including a couple of podcasts and articles that i found helpful. for those who've had similar experiences, what strategies did you use to help your family understand? did you find it helpful to share certain resources or personal stories? let's share ideas and maybe even list some resources that can help others in similar situations. 🏳️‍🌈
