How do I support my Trans little brother (former sister)? I’m not a part of The LGBTQ+ myself, but I want to support him as much as I can without Pressuring him into something 😭

Honestly the fact you care enough to come here and ask shows that you support him wholeheartedly. It may be as simple as asking him how he needs to be supported, but you are a good sibling ❤️

He hasn’t told our parents or other relatives yet, but he has asked for me to support him (in other way)- but I don’t know how. Do I buy him clothes, or stuff?

Honestly, just be there for him. tell him you're there to be someone to talk to, someone to lean on. it's difficult to predict what someone needs, so the best thing to do is be there

This entirely depends on what he wants to do. Take it slow, keep your ears open. You’ll learn a lot. Just being an open door for him to come to may end up meaning the world to him down the line
