      My family won’t even stop deadnaming me. I’m not even trans, they just don’t really care.

        What’s wild to me is that nicknames are acceptable to most people, but chosen names are somehow different?

        “I’ll call you Scoops for the rest of your natural life, but I’ll be damned if I ever call you Emily!” Or whatever
