My friend came out as genderfluid

So we were chatting together and suddenly she said she was genderfluid. I was in shocked. I secretly didnt like it but as a friend i want to advice her. What shall I do as a friend that didnt support her choice as genderfluid?

I think it's where your gender identity is very fluid and can change at any time, so one minute you could feel more like a guy and then a hour later feel very female.

It might be confusing or nonsensical to you, but this is evidently quite important to your friend so you have to get used to it. A great start would be to ask what pronouns they now want to use :smile:

If she asks, then you can advise her. If she doesn't, it will likely not be welcome.

It that what your religious text actually says?

Maybe they are embracing what your Gods created them as, maybe it is in fact you who is wrong.

If she's told you then she probably wanted support not religion shoved down her throat.

Nah don't shove **** down anyone throat, just do you and if they don't agree then leave 🤷🏽*♂️
Listening is good. Listen to them. Reassurance is good to. Reassurance that you're still their friend. And maybe learn something about gender fluidity. Learning about stuff, even if it's unfamiliar can be really good to develop a wider world view. Many cultures throughout world history have embraced wider definitions of gender and gender expression.
It's not going to affect you in anyway whether you agree or disagree. It could even be something she's been struggling to deal with don't make life anymore difficult for her.

fair enough. you might be making things more difficult but that's a fault on both sides.
