    I married one, myself, you have to withdraw from society, because the bad behaviour of the AGP breaks you down the broken trust, the lies,and it's difficult to tell friends

    It’s awful that her mother had to suffer in silence so her partner could “be her true self”. As a person in the same situation, my heart goes out to that poor woman who was forced to sacrifice her happiness.

    Very compelling. And she told her parents’ story with such compassion. I did want to know more about how her mother dealt with losing her romantic partner still relatively early in their marriage (I believe she said her parents were in their 40s when her father transitioned) and shifting to companions for the rest of their married life.

      Hi Michelle, A very good question thank you. My Mum struggled quietly on her own, she did have a lot of counselling but was very private and so didn't want to burden her children with her problems. She talked with us about her thoughts on leaving her marriage but ultimately decided that she would stay and live the best life she could with the person she married. I think a turning point for them as a couple was when my sister went through her divorce and it made it easier for them to see the strengths in their relationship. They lived the rest of their life as companions. I hope this has answered your question if you have any more questions please get in touch.

    Her dad was an autogynephile - a man with a sexual fetish that became a compulsion. I feel a bit sad she clearly didn't know this. Her mother obviously did though, and I think reading between the lines was horribly embarrassed if not ashamed. Cath talks about her father as if he had gender dysphoria - which maybe he did, but as a result of his autogynephilia which was the main issue here. Or, maybe she really *does* know, and is in denial.

      What's wrong with developing gender dysphoria via Autogynephilia? Ray Blanchard who literally made the term autogynephile 100% supports that AGPs can develop gender dysphoria and can benefit from transition. What do you know about the subject that he doesn't?

      @@tessoftheterfervilles9469 It is not simply a sexual fetish. It is a ETLE, a misdirected form of heterosexuality. And yes, it can cause SEVERE body dysmorphia. The few cases where a man cut his own penis were triggered by autogynephilic dysphoria.

      @latina yeah. I was in a DM exchange with one. Who cuts his own balls off. I was interested and not nasty when I enquired why, but he was too full of rabid hatred for Posie Parker to talk about anything else. An Autogynephile. The extreme end, but it is still a sexual fetish. And as such it is repulsive.

      Or maybe you ha r a warped view on what AGP is...... Blanchard says AGP is just as valid as HSTS

    I bought Caths book, " When Dad became Joan ".
    I also did some online counseling with Cath.
    Very valuable to me because I am a father who transitioned. I gained some valuable insight on how to minimise impact on my Wife and 2 sons. Thank you Cath.
