While Francesca Farago told E! News that living your truth is “the most liberating, freeing feeling in the whole world,” the reality star’s fiancé Jesse Sullivan knows it can be too much for some to handle. “If I would have came out as trans maybe, like, 10 years ago, I honestly don’t think I would have been getting the hate I get now,” the TikTok personality said. “I think this is a really tough time to specifically be transgender.”
Which is why, he continued, “I can’t really tell a young person, ‘You should just come out to your parents.’ I don’t think it’s a safe thing to say. I think we live in a world where that could end in harm.”
Instead, explained the dad to 14-year-old Arlo, he recommends navigating another universe. “We live in a world where you can literally find a community on your phone, on your laptop or on your iPad. And that’s how I started,” he noted. “There’s communities everywhere, and there’s people that will support and love you. And that’s going to be the best way to come out if you don’t feel like you have a safe space.”
