I’m not fully awake yet but just go with me here.

Gender is like a restaurant that you thought your whole life only had two options, and you could only order one of them.
Someday you learn there are actually a TON of options. Dishes you sort of know and dishes you’ve never heard of before. Combinations of the two dishes you knew they had. Some dishes that have completely different ingredients.

And you can order ANY OF THEM.
It can be overwhelming and kind of scary, tbh. Maybe you don’t love your dish, but you like it fine. No reason to order anything else, right?

Except one of those other dishes might be your favorite meal ever, and you’ll never know unless you try it.
Maybe you’ll try a new dish and not like it. Oh well. Try another one.

You get to try as many as you want. You get to figure out what meal you like best.
You might never find the perfect meal for you. Or it might change depending on the day. But that’s fine.

There’s a lot of pressure to know exactly what you want to order, but the choice is *yours*.
So look at the menu and go wild.
