My husband and I (trans masc) married last year. He comes from a big Mormon family. His brother misgenders me often and keeps asking me to have kids. I am very trans and do not want children. My husband is happy either way but doesn’t want me to get pregnant due to the dysphoria that will place on me. We’ve talked about adoption before, but that’s his families plans for us, not ours. We have a dog now and it’s perfect for us

Her family doesn’t really matter as much I feel like because you aren’t dating her family you are dating her. If you do not fit into *her* vision of her future you should probably have a discussion with her
