#in summary. love my mum. and my gender is ‘fuck it we ball. but if you call me anything remotely he/him ill love you forever’

[realredbanana]

Totally random but I just need to say this somewhere.

I love my mum but, omg, I do not understand if she’s clocked that I’m non-binary (or at least, from her perspective that I probably am), or if she totally hasn’t???

Like, I’ve often complained to her about my name, and how I could’ve been called Autumn???? (think the “I could’ve been Turbo?!??” meme clip thing) And she responded to this with “just change it when you’re an adult?? Plus, Autumn’s a nice and gender neutral name”.

(And she’s apparently had conversations with my dad about how ‘autistic people often don’t fit within the gender binary’)

Now, she’s telling me “you look very girly! Like, you could cut your hair short and you’d still have a very feminine face!” oblivious to the sheer, what felt like, psychic damage she was doing.
