"Our child Zoomer"

Are you fucking kidding me? Did these people completely miss what it means to be bullied by other children? Did they skip adolescence and living between the ages of 9 and 15 completely? WHY WOULD THEY NAME THEIR CHILD 'Zoomer'?!?!?

We wanted to hold space for the possibility that Zoomer could be intersex, transgender, or non-binary"

None of these things are like the others. Also, did you forget about LGB? Isn't that supposed to be a part of this great awakening and acceptance too? Why didn't you teach "Zoomer" about how there are same-sex couples and they're valid too?

We were committed to protecting them from experiencing sexism in early childhood.

Guess what honey, you don't get to control sexism through your child. Your intention was great and all, but you over-protected "Zoomer" from learning about the real world and appropriate reactions to adult interference. Other people don't subscribe to or believe in your cult, they live life in the real world, and they're going to subject "Zoomer" to gender identification regardless of what you think about it.

You completely eradicated your child's ability to function in a healthy way among everyone else outside of your family. GOOD JOB MOM! (Oops, I mean, gender-non-binary vagina-owning humanistic life form)

Zoomer would most certainly not be the first person to know they're intersex 🤦‍♂️
