I told my mother before she passed, several years ago, but I’m not sure she understood or just didn’t know what to say. So I can’t say she didn’t show support. I told my spouse in our first year of marriage (now 45+) and she has in her way supported me. I am too close to my adult children to take a chance telling them and lose that closeness especially since I have grandchildren from two of them. I suspect two of the three might accept it without too much hassle, but I also suspect if they knew they would want me to tell the third and I don’t think that would work for the best. (they were all raised the same way, but they have definitely different social beliefs.)
I have two brothers and two sisters and while we are still somewhat close ( we live far apart but we zoom once a month), I have no idea where they are, about understanding the various gender issues.
