When A Cis Woman Dates A Trans Man →
ethanology: theythesphere: Another couple uses the term “person” like I and my partners use “personfriend!” Here’s hoping it catches on. Interesting stuff. I gotta say, I kinda like this “person” idea. I can also relate to how her person ” wants people to respect his gender (by using the right pronouns and so forth), but his ultimate goal isn’t for everyone to think he’s a cis boy.” Cause...
