Yay! Thank you so much for commissioning me! Here's the rest: Max felt a little bit trapped. Every moment felt like the wrong moment to come out. Finally, not being able to stand it anymore, they emailed Alex Vinette, asking for some tips. They didn’t expect a response, but to their surprise, they got one. Sure, it was three months late and Max had already came out to his parents by then, but it helped them come out to their classmates.
Their parents were very supportive and didn’t change the way they treated them. Their classmates though, had mixed reactions. Some avoided them, some grew closer to them, some started acting all strange around them, but Max didn’t care. They finally felt less in a box.
In high school, Max decided to join the GSA and help raise awareness to middle schoolers about gender fluidity and LGBTQ in general. They hoped that they could help others feel more comfortable with themselves.
When Max was in grade school, they were always very quiet, and while they always had one or two friends. They didn’t talk very much to others, feeling like they were somehow different. They didn’t really know why exactly. They felt like they didn’t fit in with all of that stuff at school about how boys liked blue and girls liked pink. As a biological male (wasn’t sure, but I hope it’s okay), they weren’t interested in football or the other sports, rather enjoying drawing and painting instead. This, of course, was normal, but Max still felt that there was something different about them. They couldn’t understand what though, and that made them feel unexplainable distance from the rest. And the others felt it too. Some kids tormented Max. It wasn’t bullying exactly, but they forced Max to play football with them and targeted Max even though they knew Max wasn’t comfortable with it. Max tried their best to forget about it. One day, in middle school, Max’s brother, who was in college, (if they don’t have one, you can change it to friend or something), gifted Max an interesting magazine. One of the stories was about Alex Vinette, an openly genderfluid celebrity who did her best to raise awareness about genderfluidity to teenagers. Of course, Max’s brother didn’t know that this was exactly what Max needed to see. After reading it, Max completely forgot about it for almost six months, not really sure what to make of it. Then they saw the magazine again, sitting under their bed. After rereading the article and thinking about it some more, Max slowly realized that this was exactly what they were going through. They felt like some days, they felt more feminine, and some days they felt more masculine. They adopted the name Maxienne to use in addition to Max and silently struggled on how to come out to others, who had known them as a boy their whole life.

Can you send me the entire story together, please? It would just make it much more easier to paste into their bio! Thank you so much!
