"valid" is almost worse than "exist" at this point. :/

Isn't 'valid' a bit of a 'Tumblr-ism'? I was never on there in its hey day, so I'm not even sure if it and it's politics has influence still or not.

Just throwing that suggestion into the mix as I had a different idea. When I first read it a month ago, I didn't like the idea of someone validating my existence, but I guess no more than any folk liking the idea of having their existence validated. We exist. Our gender identities are valid. 🏳️‍⚧️🙂
