So, what do you do if your husband, wife, or partner suddenly drops the bomb shell on you that they believe they're the wrong sex? Unfortunately, there is precious little GOOD information out there for spouses/partners who are looking for answers. Many sites are out of date or the links are broken. Other sites are written by a transgendered individual and targeted towards the spouse/partner.... not necessarily what someone in that position is looking for.
