Ever thought what the world would be like if everyone had gender-neutral names?

This Twitter user came out as non-binary to their family and here’s a tweet to show how their mother’s trying to come up with a gender-neutral name to address them.

My mom has always called me “baby girl” and we’ve been experimenting with gender neutral ways to adapt that since I came out as nonbinary.

What is ‘Non-Binary’?

As per some studies, Genderqueer, also known as non-binary, is a catch-all category for gender identities that are not exclusively masculine or feminine‍—‌identities that are outside the gender binary. Genderqueer people may express a combination of masculinity and femininity, or neither, in their gender expression.

Ever since, Twitter has been buzzing with reactions to her tweet.

Pride all the way!
