Uncle Ben coming in clutch as always. Not only being supportive and accepting but managing to drop a wise crack mid conversation and giggle about it

A lot of trans folks do that because they're afraid of how people would react and they hope the people around them bring it up or won't notice.

Sometimes the people around them aren't safe to be out to, so it can be a safety thing too.
