Fab Friends with LGBTQueer-ies
How I Messed Up When My Child Came Out, Fearless Words from One of Medium’s Finest, And Is Makeup Just for Women?
Hello, My Fabulous Friend!
I can’t believe it’s June already — HAPPY PRIDE!!!!!
Are you planning on attending any Pride events? The pandemic shut down all of them last year, so my family will be enjoying several celebrations this year. And not to worry, I’ll be sharing all the fun photos and adventures with you.
The Fab Friends with LGBTQueer-ies Newsletter
If you haven’t grabbed the full issue of Fab Friends, you can get the most current issue here. As always we have lots of fabulosity for you!
- Wearing Makeup Does Not Require You to Be a Woman: My transgender son likes to wear makeup sometimes and I haven’t always been supportive. The difference between gender identity and gender expression has been a difficult lesson for me to learn and understand fully.
- I Messed Up When My Daughter Told Me She Was a Boy: My child, Z, was eight when they first told me they wanted to be a boy. I thought it was like they were telling me they wanted to be an astronaut when they grew up. Or a teacher. Or a kick-ass rockstar.
- Fearless Words from Fabulous Folx features one of Medium’s finest, James Finn. He wrote an amazing piece about Pride that every ally needs to read.
You can check out all of this in the latest full issue of Fab Friends!
