'you've changed!'

'You've changed, what's going on with you?' 
This made me think how, as an adult, you're supposed to be consistent. I buy some 'boyfriend cargoes' and talk about the things I love about being strong, brave, outspoken... apparently masculine qualities WTF?... and suddenly my intimate others think I'm about to transition! Maybe I will... back and forth again!

What you wrote made me think of this: http://www.robot-hugs.com/identity-shift/

We all go through phases. We have interests at different times. Just because they change, doesn't mean our identities at those times are any less valid from our understanding of ourselves.

    Son*

    I am a teacher and a learner and an activist and an artist and a parent.
    I always felt like a 'son' but never got taught
    how to use power tools.
    I’m making up for that now!
    The asterisk represents multiplicity. It’s a ‘wild-card’ for gender.
    My pronouns are they/them and she/her.
