Abstract (Swedish)
Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka narrativ från personer som gått från det tilldelade könet pojke eller flicka till den motsatta binära könsidentiteten, kring skillnader i bemötande från andra, före och efter en transition. Data samlades in genom en enkät administrerad online, totalt fjorton frågor kring bemötande av känslor före och efter en transition besvarades i fritext av totalt åtta individer, varav två identifierade sig som transmän och sex som transkvinnor. Materialet analyserades med hjälp av tematisk och narrativ analys. Därigenom identifierades två övergripande narrativa teman med tillhörande underteman, samt ytterligare ett tema. Det fristående temat var ”upplevelser av skam och bristande tillit”. Det narrativa temat... (More)

Data samlades in genom en enkät administrerad online, totalt fjorton frågor kring bemötande av känslor före och efter en transition besvarades i fritext av totalt åtta individer, varav två identifierade sig som transmän och sex som transkvinnor. Materialet analyserades med hjälp av tematisk och narrativ analys. Därigenom identifierades två övergripande narrativa teman med tillhörande underteman, samt ytterligare ett tema. Det fristående temat var ”upplevelser av skam och bristande tillit”. Det narrativa temat ”Att förstå att man är annorlunda men inte kunna sätta ord på det” var ett annat. Det narrativa temat ”vägen från att hålla det inom sig, till att visa sig” med tillhörande underteman; bemötande från andra, förmågan att känna sina känslor fullt ut samt agens, var ytterligare ett. Resultatet visade att ett kongruent bemötande påverkar psykiskt välmående, samt att förmågan att känna sina känslor påverkas av bemötande. Ett bemötande som möter en person där den är och så som den vill bli bemött, oavsett könsroll, tenderar att öka agens. Ett bemötande som speglar och bekräftar känslor renderar större möjligheter för en vuxen människa att ta hand om sig själv på ett bra sätt. (Less)
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine narratives from people who went from the assigned gender boy or girl, to the opposite binary gender identity, concerning differences in treatment from others, before and after a transition. Data were collected through a survey administered online, a total of fourteen questions about how their emotions were met before and after the transition. Questions were answered in a free text format by a total of eight individuals, of which there was two that identified as trans men and six as trans women. The material was analysed using thematic and narrative analysis. This identified two overarching narrative themes with associated sub-themes, as well as a stand-alone theme. The stand-alone theme was... (More)

Questions were answered in a free text format by a total of eight individuals, of which there was two that identified as trans men and six as trans women. The material was analysed using thematic and narrative analysis. This identified two overarching narrative themes with associated sub-themes, as well as a stand-alone theme. The stand-alone theme was "experiences of shame and lack of trust". The narrative theme "Understanding that you are different but not being able to put it into words" was another. The narrative theme ”A journey from keeping it within, to showing oneself" with sub-themes; treatment from others, the ability to feel ones emotions fully” and agency. The results indicate that a congruent treatment affects mental well-being, and the ability to feel one's feelings is affected by treatment from others. A treatment that treats a person the way it wants to be treated, regardless of gender role, tends to increase agency. A treatment that reflects and confirms emotions renders greater opportunities for an adult to take care of themselves in a good way. (Less)
