My brother is coming to visit in a few days, and I want to come out to him, but I am also absolutely terrified. How did y’all handle coming out to your families?

    To be honest it was easier to get them to understand that I’m a witch than it was to understand I’m NonBinary. Though that’s probably because I still present very feminine and in many ways I still am a woman. I just explained it to them and continued to correct them when they got my pronouns wrong, and eventually they got it.

    I would suggest being direct and just telling him, also presenting however you prefer to present can help. If you present differently than before.
