I think I need to share an experience I just had recently.

I was talking with an elder, in his mid-80s. He was showing me pictures, and showed me his wife’s “grandson” — cue photo of a stunningly fashionable young woman, wow does she know how to dress — “except he's trans, he did his trans-…he transitioned…”

ME: Does your grandkid use “she” pronouns now?

HIM: Yes!

ME: So she's your granddaughter now, I think?

HIM: Yes!!

And he switched to using she/her and did not switch back for the rest of the conversation.

There's more…
