Abstract
English
In my thesis I analysed how trans* parents, who had their "coming out" after child birth, negotiate normative concepts of family and gender. It is a quality research on the base of four biographic-narrative interviews. Furthermore I analysed present (german) researches on so-called "Regenbogen-Familien" (LGBTIQ families) and their lack of trans representation. Main topics in my thesis are pregnancies and biologistic views on gender and reproduction, the normative pressure of society regarding family, motherhood and education, such as questions and irritations of individual identities as results of transitioning as a parent.
Keywords: trans; family; gender; parents; transgender
