The husband changes gender and the wife realizes that he has always liked women.
When Jenny and Sean Barrett were married 15 years ago, they were an ordinary young American couple from Phoenix, Arizona. They just graduated from college and are starting a teaching career. The two met a year earlier during a student party and fell in love. They quickly realize that they are made for each other and want to spend their lives together. Two boys are born to them and in general the ordinary things in their family end. Or so think most of the people who have commented on social media in the last month about her incredible story.
In fact, it started to go beyond the conventional framework a decade ago, when Sean, surprisingly, started shopping for women’s clothing. At the time, he was teaching online and dressing them while at home and working alone. Jenny notices, but tells herself that if she feels better, she will have no problem accepting the change. At the same time, she is struggling with herself as she realizes that she is increasingly interested in women. So when one night in 2016, her husband whispered in the dark that he was transsexual, she was relieved to admit that she was attracted to the fair sex. At the time, neither of them had any idea what he would do. The question “Now what” inevitably culminates in each of your conversations. However, at no time do they doubt their relationship. Rather, they worry about how they will share the news with their children.
Jenny fully supports Sean’s desire to undergo hormone therapy and surgery to become a woman. She begins calling him Sarah, a name he chooses. “For a while, we hid their feminine side from the guys because we needed a strategy on how to prepare them for change, anticipate the questions they would face, and be prepared with the correct answers. And let’s face it, we didn’t. The kids were in fourth and second grade at the time. We gave them the option to choose how to continue to call him and they decided on a very nice version of “Hay,” which is Hebrew for mother, “says Jenny.
Sean then announces at the school where he teaches that he would like to be called Sarah and Mrs., especially since his appearance is becoming more feminine. His wife also announces their new family relationship at the school where he teaches. Later, they found out that it was known at their children’s school, but there was no change in their attitude. “We live in a small community and adopting this new information was uncharted territory for all of us, but luckily, it turned out incredibly well and we are infinitely grateful to everyone,” admits Jenny Barrett. According to her, there was only a small crisis. One night their 11-year-old son is found crying in the room. They are surprised, because at first he reacted quite calmly to the change, and then he admitted his gay orientation. However, the boy cries because he fears that his father will no longer want to play computer games with him after he is a woman. “We were able to assure her that Sarah changes only externally to match her internal body feelings, but her interests remain the same,” Jenny said.
Your 9-year-old is getting used to change much more slowly. When he has to say Sarah’s name in public for the first time, he refuses to do so and nervously explains that he will always be her father. Later, while on vacation in Hawaii, however, he makes new friends to introduce his two mothers. “He has felt good ever since. Even recently, as we were traveling from school to home, he said to me: Do you remember, Mom, who at first explained to me how one day it would be difficult for me to think that Ima was once a father? Weird, I tried and failed Now she’s my Ima says Jenny.
The 38-year-old decided to reveal what happened in her family to a popular American site, which shares unusual personal stories. However, his is so unusual that it was quickly picked up by the media around the world.
“We are receiving messages from various countries. Everything is so crazy and unreal, in an absolutely great way. We have always felt that we are on this planet with a mission, but only now do we realize what it could be. Sharing our experience, we hope. send a message to everyone that families come in all shapes and sizes. There is no one right way. It’s all about love and developing strong, independent and good adults, “says Jenny Barrett. According to her, there are so many other families that suffer because one of them turned out to be transsexual or gay. Usually they prefer to hide this fact or the relationship between them falls apart, from which they all suffer. “We want to give them hope that the transition to true sexuality is possible with children. Nobody’s journey to oneself is the same, but it is important that children are loved, supported, strong, kind and open to what is different”, the American teacher points out.
Her ex-husband and current partner Sarah has already gone through much of her transformation into a woman. She underwent breast augmentation surgery, is about to have her genitalia replaced, which was postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic. “As we are teachers, the only time this can happen is next summer during vacation, because recovery takes a long time. She is very eager to do it and so am I, although almost nothing radical will change for us, even in the bedroom. “Since Sarah recognized her transsexuality, we are closer than ever, in every way, and when we are intimate, we act as if this part of her is gone,” Jenny told the Daily Mail.
Sarah admits that the operation is the last barrier to seeing the woman she has wanted for a long time. She always hated her male body and avoided showing him naked. As a child, she secretly wore her mother and sister’s clothes, but decided to admit her transsexuality when she realized that her oldest son was probably gay. She realized that she couldn’t expect him to be honest with himself if she wasn’t honest with him.
Bulgaria was condemned for not recognizing transsexuality
A Bulgarian citizen born as a woman in 1970 won a case against the state in the European Court of Human Rights, after the authorities of our country refused to recognize her gender reassignment.
He became aware of his male sexual identity in his teens. He began to lead a social life as a man. He presents himself with his first male name. He later lived as a family with another woman, who in 2010 gave birth to a baby with the help of artificial insemination from a donor. The child and YOU build a relationship as a child and as a parent.
Transgender women initiate gender reassignment procedures. Before one of the operations, she went to court to change her name, sex and PIN in the national registries, as is the procedure, but was denied.
That is why he seeks his rights in Strasbourg. The European magistrates ruled that the “common interest” reason for the denial was not legally justified. Therefore, the State must pay IT 7,500 euros as compensation for moral damage and another 4,100 euros in costs.
