When I came out it didn’t sit so well with my mom. I figured that she would be more understanding than my dad, and she’s liberal and agnostic, but she sort of got confused, I think, and imagines I just don’t like girly things. Since, she’s brought it up only a few times, usually to make sure I haven’t told anyone (I’ve told lots, she just doesn’t know). Fortunately, my dad started talking to me about this non-binary person on NPR and said that while he’d never thought much about these identities before, he was cool with them. I think I have a chance of understanding with him! 🏳️🌈 (Non-binary AFAB/Gynephilic)
