Cisgender women during transition of transmasculine partner
AUT Auckland PhD candidate Elizabeth Jennens is conducting research on the experiences of cisgender women during the transition of their transmasculine partner (transmasculine meaning the partner was assigned female at birth and has transitioned to a masculine gender identity), in the context of Aotearoa New Zealand and Australia.
Elizabeth is seeking survey participants who are 18 or over, cisgender women who have experience of being in a relationship with someone who was assigned female at birth, and they transitioned to a masculine gender identity during the relationship or were in the process of transitioning when you entered the relationship. The transition can be either social (name, pronoun change etc), medical (hormones), or surgical.
Complete the survey.
