When I was young my parents would ask me what I wanted to do with my life and told me they would support me 100% if it was something I truly wanted. It was okay if I said I wanted to be a baseball player, scientist or even a used car salesman. I have a pretty good idea what kind of response I would have received if I'd told them I wanted to be a happy crossdresser. I understand why they would have been reluctant back in the early 1960's to offer that kind of support. It would have been a little out of their comfort zones, but wouldn't it have been great if they'd been open and supportive for that one? If nothing else, I'm thinking I'd probably be in better physical condition.
Has anyone been in this situation either as a child or a parent? What happened?
