CEO and Seagoon have such wise advice. I don’t have kids but it’s something I have thought about myself as an adult. I have never fit in with girls and my experience of my female biology has been pretty negative (endo, infertile etc). For a while I wondered if I were not a woman but it’s really hard to unpack (for me) whether you fundamentally are not your assigned gender or if you don’t really like the idea of your assigned gender.

I eventually came to some peace through some study I did related to yoga. The idea of feminine I was learning about was the fierce, fighting, transforming one. I understood that the gender stuff we have thrown at us is so empty and silly. I don’t wear dresses and I don’t like some aspects of my body. I’m just me. A she mostly.

I would hate to be a kid going through this and just wanting to belong. And it’s bloody hard to be the parent holding space but also trying to protect and guide.

No answers just throwing some thoughts out in case it helps.
