    I still had the thought that it might be something brought about by seeing people they look up to being a certain way and not from internal, intrinsic reasons.

    Funnily enough, that’s very similar to the thought process I had regarding masculinity when I came out to myself as non-binary.

    Thanks for supporting your kid.

      That’s super interesting! And I guess I can kind of see that point about masculinity, it’s an awful thing overall the way we treat the notion of “manliness”. Good on you, and thanks for the insight!
