Data on Trans Widows’ Experiences After a Husband’s Revelation or her Discovery~

Here is the write up of the most recent data on women who got out of a marriage/relationship with a man after his intense cross-sex ideation escalated.

Please do copy and share this with any woman who has gone through this. My data demonstrates how demoralizing it is. I just heard about a trans widow “who accepts” it all–her only objection, now that she’s remarried and believes the children are “adjusted” is that he insists the children he fathered call him a “Mama-Something” name and continues to insist on “sharing” Mother’s Day. I heard this third hand, and I suspect this woman has many other experiences she feels unable to speak of.
