LBGT grandchildren

Just accept them for who they are. They're still the same person you've always known. Perhaps ask them how they want to be addressed?

Thanks very much MissInterpreted! I shall ask 😁

The only thing I can’t stand is the alphabet title if it get any longer we ll soon have all 26 letter with identifying as a zebra for the last one 🤷🏼‍♂️

I agree. I have no idea what the AI means. Artificial Intelligence?! Surely there can’t be any more permutations to add?

This isn't something I've had experience, so can't offer much advice Nellie. I'd hope that I would try to accept them as they are rather than how I would want them.
In terms of pronouns, what MissInterpreted says makes sense, though I wish the LGBT community could come up with an alternative to 'they' as it can be confusing. Ms was a good compromise for women who didn't want to be Miss or Mrs, but I can't think of one for people who don't want he or she.

Hello my grandchild said it stands for asexual and intersex

🙄 what next?

Is AI Asexual and Intersex?

I can't imagine discussing my sex life (or lack of it) with my grandparents, and I assume that when a baby is born with genitals that don't fit either male or female there will be some discussion in the family. It's probably fairly unusual for those who are questioning to get their grandparents involved, too.

When it comes to sexuality, then I think the best advice is to simply accept their partners, regardless of whether they are same sex or not.

You seem fairly clued up though - all those initials . If you keep researching as you have clearly been doing, you won't go far wrong.

Mx is a title than is non-gendered.
rarely needs to be spoken, but i presume like mux, cf Ms is pronounced muz, roughly.
some women, who are not the alphabetties, but prefer the Mx title on envelopes for safety, as it does not alert to a female resident.
some people trawl about communal letterboxes, looking for addresses that seem to have a lone female resident.

Mx is a title than is non-gendered.

but I was thinking an alternative to 'they', not a title.

Don't bank on it .

That "+" is just begging for another variation!
