A teacher has commemorated their non-binary identity, along with their top surgery, with a twist on the typical ‘gender reveal’ party. Rather than finding out if they were having a boy or a girl, Flint, 31 - who prefers to go by one name personally and professionally - instead used this typical gathering to make fun of people’s fixation on gender.
The party included queer games and traditional blue and pink decorations, while guests were asked to bring a gift representing Flint’s gender. Flint, an English and film teacher by day and TikTok trans-issues educator and roller derby coach by night, lives with their wife SJ, 34, who is also non-binary, and their four cats.
The pair came up with the idea of having a party to celebrate not conforming to either gender identity. Originally raised as a girl, Flint also wanted to mark their recovery from top surgery in July, where the breasts were removed, with more than 25 guests invited to a bash at their home on August 13 this year - where there was a big build-up to their gender not being revealed at the end.
