As parent and child, Babette Santos and Jade share a unique bond.
It is founded on love and devotion.
On another level, they have also built a special relationship.
They’re gender rebels. As such, they’re bosom buddies in defying binary terms set by social norms and biology.
“My mom goes by they-them pronouns, and I go by he-him pronouns,” Jade told the
Straight in a phone interview together with Santos.
Jade is a 15-year-old high school student in Vancouver.
Santos related: “I’ve known Jade has been queer for a long time. Being a queer mom made it easy for Jade.”
