So I’m cis but my sister just came out as trans to me and I wanna support her as much as possible since I’m the only one she’s out to. Any advice?

listen to her. she'll probably tell you what would be good support for her. also don't out her.

I want to tell you that you're already doing such an amazing job trying to understand what she’s going through, but not everything can be the same for everyone because some advice applies to her and not others, and vice versa, so if I were you, I would probably get her a good meal to celebrate, something that you know she would like, also ask her directly if there is anything she needs, the only thing left to say is that if you want to ask any questions then please dm me.🥰🫶

little things matter a lot! you could write a card to her with a little gift that you know she would like (if she's really into idk roller coasters or something, you could take her to an amusement park) saying for my sister <3 and just listening to her and supporting her on her journey is really important when you're newly out as trans. she may want you to help her get things like clothing or makeup or medicine pick ups too.
