Younger by 15 months. My worry is he's very easily led and very impressionable and has been going to a Baptist church for years so I'm not sure what they think about LGBT people and what he's been told.

Some baptist churches are really accepting. My son goes to one and is fine with it. I hope it goes well for you.

Good luck sweetie - I know you'll do well!
Do you have a little script, or are you going to wing it?

You might have a look here for a few thoughts that might help:

I personally also like the twin explanation... people will be like their male/female twin... with still the same sense of humour etc...
and you might think about showing some resources like some vids later...
good luck and have a *hug*

Wishing you the best. My wife and I go to a baptist church. I don't even want to tell you what they think. Keeping fingers crossed for you.

A teeny-tiny little script and more wings than the chicken place down the street.

It went wonderfully. Mum was on the other line at the house with him and the three of us had a long talk. He supports me 100%. I couldn't have hoped for better than it went. I'm so happy and very emotionally drained at the moment. :)

So happy to hear that your coming out went wonderfully! :D It's such a breath of fresh air to have large amounts of positives when it can be such an unknown and grey area for many of us! I came out Gay perfectly well with my best friend and my parents, I'm sure ( but still hoping) that my coming out as Transgender will be just as successful and I say this to EVERYONE on here ^u^!

Thank you all. It's been an amasingly emotional and cathartic week for me. :)
