For ages our trans kid, when asked their gender, replies w/ a grin, “I strive to confuse people.” Top surgery has definitely fulfilled this dream. Today the dentist was using they/them but then “Sir,” and Jupes was thrilled. They said to me later, “I don’t get boy gender feelings, I get gremlin gender euph... eilloh.net

@camacho Oh you're welcome, and thank you! It really is amazing to watch, that's so cool that you are doing this too! Such a gift. :)

@benwerd Oh thank you! :)

@hollie 🥰 Jupes sounds really cool.

@Annie I might be biased but I think so. 🥰

@hollie I love it! When I'm pushed, I always say my gender is "monstrous woman." Here's to your gremlin kid's glee! More of this kind of gender please!

@hollie I love this story. I know more than a few gender goblins, and their experiences of gender mayhem always brings me joy!

@KimberlyHirsh Hahaha! Monstrous woman, I love that! :)

@splinter Gender goblins! What a great phrase. :D Yeah watching Jupiter mess with people is so much fun. They're kind, they're never mean or anything, but it's just great to see someone look at them and clearly try to figure out whether he or she, and Jupes is just smiling, like, "Keep going...."

@hollie It kind of reminds me of Gene Wilder’s entrance as Willie Wonka. A playful way of saying, “Don’t make any assumptions!”
