My daughter has a friend named Hayley. She is not amused when I spell it heighleigh
My daughter's two best friends are Isabella and Felix, so she lucked out on that front.
... Felix is the trans guy, right? Felix seems very much like the name a trans boy would pick out for himself, lol.
Yep. That's Felix. I don't even know his deadname. I think my daughter told me once because the school deadnamed him over the announcements and she didn't know they were talking about him.
It makes me think of Felix the Cat, which is not an insult. I like Felix the Cat. Dude knows how to party.
i feel like i've just witnessed something which i don't have the context to, and should.
I dont know how to feel about this interaction.
Squid has mentioned Squidling's trans friend in other comments.
I'm a transgender man who also picked a "popular in Europe, not in the US" name, and names popular for trans people is a running joke in the trans community. When I came out, Aiden/Kayden/Jayden were the ones that everyone joked about being popular, and then it was the "drowned Victorian child" names, now it's Elliot and a few others I can't remember right now (and for trans women, my support group back in the day had a half dozen Jen/Jenny/Jennifers and now the popular trans femme name is probably Emily). And non-binary people stereotypically pick nouns, Target's pride collection had some stuff by someone who picked the name Bird.
ah ok, thanks for the context, i figured it must've been mentioned somewhere else, just haven't seen it.
If you pick out Felix for yourself, you're definetly a furry
