What It Must Be Like To Feel Weird

A mom threw a belated gender reveal party for her transgender son 17 years after she 'got it wrong'

(CNN) -- Love and Brandon Gwaltney's gender reveal party started out like any other.
The couple from Akron, Ohio, wore matching outfits of pink and blue. There was a cake decorated with pink and blue sprinkles and a big question mark on top. And then, of course, there was the big box that typically contains the pink or blue balloons that serve to reveal the gender of their baby.
But as they counted down to one, what popped out were balloons of yellow, white, purple and black -- the colors of the nonbinary flag -- followed by their 17-year-old child, coming out to the world with his new pronouns of he, him and his.
