+                                \n\nLeading up to my birthday last year I had realized I'm gnc (gender nonconforming) and had been starting to feel 
+                                very uncomfortable with masculine pronouns. I was already looking for a replacement name at the time and knew I 
+                                needed to do something about the way I was being referred to for my sanity. I've never been particularly fond of 
+                                holidays (my birthday especially) because something always seems to go awry when family is involved. None the less 
+                                I decided to take control of the situation and hope for the best. \n\nI custom ordered my cake and bought all the 
+                                ingredients for the meal and cooked it myself. I even did my makeup. Not something I do often, but it was my birthday 
+                                and I wanted to feel pretty. Before unveiling the cake (decorated with a nonbinary flag) I went through the whole 
+                                spiel about being nb and what that meant for me, as well as explaining pronouns and what not. \n\nWhen I finished they 
+                                were silent for a minute or two. My brother spoke first, saying something to the tune of: My dad says gnc people go 
+                                to hell. Obviously not the first thing you want to hear after such a tense interaction. Long story short dinner resolved 
+                                peacefully but it didn't seem I got through to them as the next couple weeks were filled with pronoun related arguments. 
+                                \n\nMuch headbutting later they've come around on my pronouns and the name I've chosen. As you can imagine though, for a 
+                                time I felt extremely unwelcome in the home, and after all the effort I put in I was pretty devastated my coming out
