Thank you for such an informative post, and the questions you linked above, it has certainly broadened my understanding and I'm grateful to you for sharing.
As human beings we are all unique and everyone should be allowed to be whoever they feel comfortable being, I find it sad that there are people who, not only don't agree, but who actively go out of their way to make people feel they are not accepted. We should all be allowed to decide our identity, we are us, we are not what someone else wants us to be.
Enjoy Snowflake, everyone is welcome here :)
