[quote=Anonymous]Following. I am in a similar situation with my DD. She told us a few years ago she is lesbian (not terribly surprising) but now says she identifies as a demigirl and prefers they/them pronouns. I did some research, and demigirl sounds basically like what I have felt like my entire life but never really thought twice about. I am not conventionally feminine, and my husband is not conventionally macho. Our generation worked so hard to expand the notion of what it means to be female--you can be strong, ambitious, loud, athletic, aggressive, whatever--and now it seems like kids are putting "female" in this small, weak box and identifying anything outside that stereotype as something other. In many ways, it feels like a repudiation of feminism and several steps back. I'm trying to be supportive but just don't get it. [/quote]
