      My baby brother’s the same. He loves dinosaurs obviously, but he also loves clothes and dancing and really enjoys painting his and other people’s nails. The amount of times I’ve visited and had to turn up to work the next day with brightly coloured nails because I don’t have any polish remover is honestly ridiculous!
      Sex and gender aren’t all that defines a child, and anybody who is actually decently good with kids doesn’t need to be told that. Young kids just want to have fun - they don’t care about being manly or girly unless you force them to care!

Given that my mom’s side of the family are substance abusers and her father(the most horrible of my two grandfathers) is a child m*lester.

      I admit to having been somewhat concerned when I was pregnant that, if I had a daughter, I wouldn’t be able to help her much with makeup and fashion, because I’m not especially feminine and have always struggled with makeup and putting myself together style-wise. This was before CZcams, so I didn’t have access to tutorial videos and was too embarrassed to ask other makeup-wearing people what to do. Not so much a preference as a fear that I would be wholly inadequate to the challenge of raising another human, and fixating on the thing I was most insecure about at the time.

Signed, a non-binary mom with a daughter who loves pink and glitter and throwing her body into dangerous situations, and two sweet sons who adore rainbows and snuggles and wear their big sister’s hand-me-downs, including dresses, and challenge her to twirling contests.

    I was thinking about how inaccurate those generalisations about boys can be, and then I saw the "... frog in it's pocket." one, and remembered the time my little brother fell head-first into a stinky pond in full formal wear because he was looking at frogs, then had to play a trombone solo sopping wet. In the middle of his solo, a frog jumped out of his hair. When he was done playing, his music teacher checked him over, and found two more frogs on his head. 😂

    Ah yes, emotional incest. These women (often stay at home mums) generally aren't getting their emotional and social needs met by their partners so they turn to their sons to meet them instead. As if they could raise them to always be as attentive and supportive to her as they wish their own spouse was.
    It either works and they grow into emotional stunted men who always put their mum ahead of their own relationships (making her the MIL from hell)... or they break free and go low or no contact for their own mental health (and that of their future family).

      The modern concept of motherhood is kind of weird if you think about it. Almost abusive. When we used to live more communally there were always other adult around to interact with and help out. Now everyone is sequestered away into their own homes. Mothers can spend hours alone in their homes with their children, isolated from any adults to have enriching interactions with. And this can go on for months or years. With minimal human interaction and all your time consumed keeping your child alive, no wonder some Mothers turn into karens

My dad kind of sucks and has always been fairly absent, but a male family friend did a ton of "dad" stuff for me, like teaching me how to drive. I'm up to my ears in parental figures lol. When a whole group is together, all the adults just take responsibility for whatever kid is physically closest to them. Baby crying? Kid needs food, is getting into trouble, has hurt themselves, etc? Whoever is closest just deals with it. It allows all the parents to relax a little because there are so many eyes watching out for all the kids.

      Okay, the time stamped point: THISSSS^^^
      I say Cardcaptor Sakura had a massive impact on my life, and one of the things I will forever thank the series for was exactly this. Knowing, and understanding there are different kinds of love.
      Partial spoilers for the series for those who care?
      There's a scene at the end of one of the early episodes (like 12 or 13 think?) Where Tomoyo tells Sakura she loves her and Sakura says "I love too." Iirc, theres supposed to be a thought dialogue where Tomoyo says "I think our definitions of love are different." (If its there, its only in the sub because EVERY dub is homophobic.) There's also the throughline of this later where Tomoyo is giving advice to Syaoran on how to manage his crush on Sakura. Something about how "even if the feelings arent returned, you want them to be happy." (He also kind of picks up that Tomoyo likes Sakura but isn’t going to fight him over it.)
      In the Sakura Card arc, almost half of an episode is about Sakura deciding to confess to Yukito how she feels. His first response is to ask her to relate her feelings for him to those of her dad or brother. She tells him they're pretty similar. Then he tells her that he has feelings for someone else. Later on she admits to Syaoran that she lied, but his rejection still hurt, but she wanted him to be happy. (In a seperate scene yukito also admits he could tell she was hurt.)
      Then close to the end of the series Eriol and Syaoran are moving away pretty close to each other, but Eriol leaves first. Sakura says she's sad to see him go, but she isn't tearful. Eriol tells her to remember that when someone else close to her tells her they're leaving.
      -- So Syaoran tells her he's leaving and she runs home in tears and says she doesn't know how to describe that pain.

    My mom wanted a boy, had a girl (me) instead. She wanted a boy because she wanted someone to watch sports with & she thought a boy would be less worry. I ended up being a huge nerd & liking video games, reading, & D&D.
    She tried getting me to like sports & other "boy" stuff. Some of it I liked & still do to this day but I never got into sports.
    When my sister was pregnant with her first kid, my mom was so happy when she found out it was a boy because then she could finally have a boy to pass on her love of sports to. When my sister had a second boy a little over a year later, my mom was happy because it was another boy she could bond with over sports.
    Both my nephews are over 18 now, they were never interested in sports, & ended up liking the same things I do.

Encouraged to wear heels, makeup, jewelry, hair accessories, nail polish, long fake nails, long hair, play with baby dolls, and easy bake oven and barbies. Watch shows tailored to girls like My Little Pony and Sailor Moon.
      I did all those things plus fake tattoos, wrestling, video games, getting dirty, being loud and wild, dinosaurs, and Power Rangers. I love snakes, mice, rats, etc. while girls at school freaked out over them. My sister had a pet snake too, so I could never understand girls freaking out over them.
      As I got older I wore dresses only to church or weddings etc. I was labeled a tomboy. My friends saw me as one of the boys. But I was still mostly labeled and treated as a girl. It made me uncomfortable at times, but I wasn't sure why. As I hit puberty, I didn't want to wear bras. I was uncomfortable undressing in front of girls in a girl's locker room. I started realizing I didn't fit in with other girls, and even though I fit in more with boys, I wasn't a boy.
      As I grew up exploring who I am, I kept some interests while others were phases from me trying to be like my mom and sister. I quit stuff that wasn't me and started enjoying stuff that was me. I quit seeing it as "This is for girls and this is for boys" and started seeing it as "If I like it I like it"

      That's awesome. I'm single, but my best friend's MIL super loves her sons and loves her daughters in law just as much. I recently found out that because my friend loves Hallmark christmas movies, her MIL records all the new ones that come out in December and holds off watching them until they go visit for Christmas so she and my friend can watch them all together. It's so freaking adorable. I can't imagine being immediately hostile to your son's partner when you could be building a beautiful new friendship like that.

    I find it weird that people seem to assume that boy will be rowdy, making a mess, ... and girls will be well behaved, tidy, ...
    My brother is 2 years older than me, my mum always told me I'm the one who taught him to disobey, I taught him how to climb trees (we weren't allowed, but it seemed like fun to me XD ), ... I also fought with my mum for equality (she had been raised by her grand mother, so she was pretty old fashioned: girls should do household chores, cook,... but never asked my brother to do so. So I fought and said I wouldn't do any of that until he has to do it too. How did it end? He's 40 and still brings his laundry to her and he eats at my parents every day. I live in another country XD )

    The number one comment I got when I waited until birth to find out the sex of my babies was “oh I could NEVER! I’m too much of a planner!” A) what plans are you making that have to do with their genitals? Aside from whether or not you’ll circumcise, that’s literally the only one I could think of, and I planned for that. B) Bold of you to insinuate my type-A anxious ass isn’t planning. Do you want to see my stack of books, blog posts, medical articles? Do you want to hear my 7 year plan for handling car seats as recommended? Can I tell you about how I took birthing classes for FOUR MONTHS and hired a doula so I could have the best chance of success with the birth plan I researched and planned for? Do you want to know how I have researched absolutely every item sold for baby proofing and compared their ratings for effectiveness? Miss me with that “I’m too much of a planner” bs you just want to decorate and buy as much gendered stuff as possible.

    Hi Jamie, I started watching you off and on about three years ago. I was 15, and I was starting to explore my gender. I found out I was a trans guy soon after, and watching your older videos of you journey and experiences have helped educate me so much on transitioning. I’m now almost 18, and I’m two years on testosterone, and I’m waiting for a call from the doctor to schedule my top surgery! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and experience on these things, and also being entertaining while doing it, it’s helped a lot with dysphoria and feeling alone for me. So thank u ^^

    That's so sad. I have 2 kids and them being still very young they often say that they want to live with me forever, or they want to marry me (because you get married to someone you love). I always say that one day they will love someone else, someone who isn't part of our family, so much they'd want to marry them.
    It's not "cute" or "fierce" to be so possessive of your child that you expect to be forever the most important person in their life. Ironically, people who are like that usually end up with adult children who are incapable of looking after themselves and always running back to mummy to fix life for them or they shut their inappropriate possessive parents out of their lives.
    The goal should be to raise well adjusted adults who can take responsibility for their actions and to have a good honest relationship with them. Is that asking too much?

It's not HRT, it is cross sex hormones, HRT is something given to women who naturally produce a hormone which becomes depleted due to either surgery or menopause. Children with precocious puberty will eventually go through their natural puberty, it is just delayed because for some medical reason they start puberty too young. Children who are given puberty blockers and then cross sex hormones never go through the natural puberty for their natal sex. You only need to see what happened to Jazz Jennings to realise that there is much more to going through your own puberty than just reaching sexual maturity, ironically something that Jazz Jennings will never reach.

    Cooking is probably one of the most useful skills in life. I feel like parents should teach their kids to cook both regardless of gender, sexuality or some other weird thing that assumes someone will be less or whatever.
    I learned how to cook and bake basic things as a kid and really enjoyed it. When I grew up I got to experience experimenting with recipes, making recipes from scratch and finally combining ingredients I didn't know went well together when in a tough financial situation.
    Cooking should never be taught as a "this is to impress others" or "this should make the future partner feel less"
    Cooking should be taught as an important life/survival skill.
    I've gone to food banks and told people simple recipes I came up with from things I got. Even talked to a guy who didn't know how to use spices.
    I usually just feel bad for people who can't cook or don't know how. It doesn't make them less but can cause them to struggle more since, for one, pre prepared meals tend to be more expensive and less nutritious, and two, when in a difficult situation financially they'll struggle to find why they like.
