Usually I love Christmas, spending time with family, giving and receiving gifts, eating such delicious food. This year though. I won't see my brother or my nieces and nephew. All because they don't understand my gender. I will be deadnamed and misgendered by my parents. Because they are offended that I don't want to use my birth name anymore. They don't understand that the inside hasn't changed, I'm still their kid. I just am being who I am on the inside, on the outside. (Even though the only things that have changed are my name and pronouns).

I don't really know how to end this so I'll just say have a very happy holidays. Be kind to one another. Love as much as you want love returned.
