My friends are a straight-presenting queer couple (FTM and drag king) with two children. The eldest is 13 and a very self-aware young lady - religiously Pagan, takes her school through an Eco-Quest program, passionate about Scouts.
Her parents were teasing her one night about having a girlfriend on Facebook (she's open to crushes on all genders.)
Dad: Isn't she your girlfriend?
Her: Daaaad!
Mom: Well, you talk to her all the time.
Her: Mooooom!
Me: Are you even interested in dating right now?
Her: *pause* I don't even know what I LIKE!
Me: Is she cute?
Her: *pause* Yes?
It was great to see a young lady who wants to wait until she's comfortable with what she likes before pursuing it. If only so many others were as secure as she is.
