‘I am so proud of the up and coming generation’
Visitors to our Facebook page have had their say on our story about non-binary Quibs getting name-change documents:
Joanna Castle: Well done, keep it up. Other people who feel the same don’t normally say anything as this world is full of judgemental people. Your an inspiration to others. Well done on being so brave.
Liz Lilliman: Fantastic news. I am so proud of the up and coming generation. My daughter aged 14 has some non-binary friends at school, and they just accept it and move on. I think this age range and younger will be so more understanding of everything. They just accept people for who they are.
Chris Tonkinson: It could be worse – they could be getting daily insults for having ginger hair. The best thing to ever happen to me was my hair turning white. It stopped me getting into fights almost every other day.
Kerry Bareham: Hey Quibs, awesome news. Thank you for being a role model x.
Tia Jordan Fletcher: Leave them be. Let them be happy, instead of giving them hate for being who they are.
Daryl Edwards: They do have the right to identify as what they want, but by that same token I have the same right to identify them as what I believe them to be.
Sarah Keetley: Happy for you, Quibs.
Zowie Nicola Morris: Bullying is never OK for any reason, we’re all a bit “weird” to someone I suppose! I wish people could just be happy with what they’re given and who they are though. Maybe people should just let people be. Life is too short to be worrying what others are doing or wearing, etc.
Kayleigh Murphy: I don’t understand all this non-gender stuff but then again it’s none of my business what other people do and if they are happy they’re happy.
