Because you're not transgender yourself, you may not really fully understand why surgery is needed or not needed. Please do not impress your own opinion on your child. Some queer people get surgery and still identify as genderqueer. | |

| Jun 29, 2019 at 1:58 | comment | added | anongoodnurse | Thanks for clarifying the quotation marks. As to "they", we use it for binary/non-binary/anyone-and-everyone when we are not being specific. | |
| Jun 29, 2019 at 1:35 | comment | added | SnappingShrimp | @anongoodnurse As far as "they" goes, Oldest has a non-binary friend and we they/them/theirs that young person. It seems odd to use when Oldest is not feeling non-binary but on the contrary, quite binary. The stiltedness of s/he his/her for me reflects the awkward gender dichotomy we're struggling to be open to. Feel free to edit if you think it takes away from the question. | |
| Jun 29, 2019 at 1:32 | comment | added | SnappingShrimp | @anongoodnurse I see where it looks condescending to quote "thinks" but the point is that it was the literal word from Oldest's mouth. Not "knows" or "believes." I thought "think" was a little odd phrasing from Oldest, so I quoted it. | |
| Jun 28, 2019 at 22:08 | comment | added | anongoodnurse | Why is "thinks" in quotation marks? Not an answer, but I almost never see he/she, s/he, his/her anymore. Most commonly, I see "they" for the pronoun. They is fine for the singular in English. (E.g. The student left school early because they had a doctor's appointment.) | |
