@britnidlc "you're great just the way you are and there's no one right way to be a boy or a girl." To be clear, I have nothing against you or others identifying as non-binary. How would you answer a 5 year old's questions about whether they are a boy or girl or nonbinary? — PolitiTweet.org

@britnidlc I agree that they know themselves, and should be supported whoever they are, and over the years they will of course experiment with different identities. I think my confusion here is that, especially when they are very young, the words that map onto what feels right to them — PolitiTweet.org
