My wife is not accepting, and she would freak if she were to read this forum. I think that certain posts would scare her, or at least confirm her fears. I have asked her to read many things about CD and transgender, from articles to books, and she has refused. I would think that if a SO is determined not to learn about this part of their partner, then no amount of attempting to teach or convince will help. So, perhaps if a SO is curious with an open mind, then this forum could be a place to learn about the spectrum of Transgender, but if the mind is already closed, this forum will not open it. For me, her lack of interest in getting to know this part of me is the hardest part of my life, and at times causes me to wish that I wasn't who I am. It just complicates my own struggle with self-acceptance. She won't even tell me her reasons, so I am left guessing the worst. Nancy
