And I’m consistently amazed at how easy things are for children. Maybe I live in a bubble but the school system here is queer AF. My daughter had a classmate who identified as a lesbian in third grade.
Third grade!
I’m not saying that comphet ain’t a thing, but I know 40 year old women who are still testing to process that they might be gay while third graders play with wearing the term “queer” like it’s a dress style.
In any given day our high school may have more open Trans kids attending than kids who are wearing purple. Seriously, that’s not me just saying that, that’s data from a non-Trans-identifying non-binary kid who did a project on it.
Read that again. The important thing is not that a kid in high school did a project on how many trans kids were in the high school compared to the color purple. The kid is non-binary and doesn’t identify as Trans.
That’s wild.
