I actually had an OK-ish chat with my dad about transness…he’s a huge contrarian and a pedant which makes talking about many things quite annoying, but thankfully he is not on social media at all so he is not completely pilled in any one direction. Once I introduced the phrase “decoupling sex and gender” he was able to at least grasp that, so…baby steps. But who knows where we’ll be at next year.

The fact he took time to learn something new around gender identity and sex is all you can truly ask for <3 moving in the right direction for sure.
