New Slang

Someone wrote…

I came out to my little sister today. She’s the first person in my family I’ve told, and though there’s never been any doubt in my mind that my family would love and support me, I still freaked out waiting for her reaction. She said:

“Man it’s cool. I’m all about freedom in like every form like I don’t get why people shouldn’t get to love whoever they want cuz like love is never wrong. Like I feel like that’s such a basic simple idea man I don’t get why everyone doesn’t see it”.

Sometimes a slangy email from your 16 year old little sister just says it all, right? I know she definitely brought me to tears.

What’s your experience?

And what are you thinking about gender right now?
