I'm in a relationship with a cisgendered woman. We're both lesbians and we're deeply in love. While her parents are completely support of our relationship, some of her other relatives have been questioning why she would be with a MTF. Some are questioning her sexual orientation as well(she's completely out to her family). At first this wasn't too bothersome, but now she is being pressured to find a 'more suitable partner'(words of her aunt). I know she wouldn't leave me for anyone...well I certainly hope she wouldn't. She's tried telling them to mine their own business, but they are determined to continue on with this. I don't know if I should stay out of this completely....or I should try to educate them on the subject of transsexuality in hopes of opening their mind a bit. For those who've gone through a similar situation...what did you do? For those who haven't...what would you do in this situation?
