A reader writes: "I'm a teenage girl and I'm currently attracted to a trans person who is biologically male but identifies as female. I'm completely fine with it, and she and I are interested in starting a relationship, but I'm a little nervous about a few things.

"Unfortunately, my family is quite close minded and there aren't many online resources for people my age who are dating transgender people. I was just wondering what tips or pointers I should be aware of to make sure she's comfortable.

"One of my biggest concerns is in regards to sex, especially considering that we're both in our teens. Is there any right or wrong way to talk to her about it?"
