Hello, My Name Is: Blank Slate | DNA, Hold My Beer T-Shirt

We were supposed to be blank slates.
That was the story.
When things went well, it was nurture.
When things didn’t? Suddenly it was nature.
This shirt plays on the long-standing adoption myth that children arrive as clean canvases — shaped only by environment — right up until DNA testing showed up and said, actually… no.
Hello, my name is: Blank Slate
DNA: hold my beer.
It’s not anti-science.
It’s not anti-family.
It’s anti-oversimplification.
Perfect for adoptees, donor-conceived folks, and MPE/NPE humans who grew up carrying expectations that shifted the moment genetics became inconvenient or explanatory.
Minimal. Ironic. Uncomfortably accurate.

Story Behind the Design
Every design in this shop comes straight from the lived experiences, chaos, humor, grief, and occasional “Are you kidding me?” moments shared across our community.
Some stories come from adoptees.
Some from MPE/NPE wanderers.
Some from donor-conceived folks.
Some from first parents reclaiming their voice.
All of them come from real people who got handed a plot twist they didn’t ask for.
