I think my grandson's transgender boyfriend is starting to feel like part of the family.
He recently got a job, and arranged to have every Wednesday off, which is when Mrs. Aristus and I have our day off, as well. I think he wants to spend more time with us. I guess he likes living in a trans-friendly house.
I think I told you guys before how he is already calling me "Grandpa". (Of course, that just because my grandson does.)

We are all one
and....Wednesday is my day off too
A mutual friend, who was at the same weekend thing, thought I'd already met him, because the friend made a point to tell me that this person had just completed transitioning. Nope, I'd never met him, or the former her. Had I not been told he's trans, I'd never have guessed, as to my not always discerning eye he seemed as fully male as could be.
I know there's a lot I don't know, a lot I still need to learn about trans.
I do have one acquaintance who is a trans woman. I'd love to ask her lots of questions, but because we are merely acquaintances, I know that they could easily be rude and intrusive, so I don't ask. I figure I will learn what I need to know, or what this person thinks I should know, in due time.
For what it's worth, both of these trans people are in the science fiction world, which is incredibly accepting of any kinds of differences.
Oh, and I also suppose it's possible I've met any number of trans people in the past who simply had no need to tell me that.
I'm so glad to hear how accepting and loving you both are - both to your grandson and his boyfriend. I think it's adorable how he's calling you "Grandpa" now too...
On behalf of all of us, thank you.
