Re: Questions you can't ask IRL or online non-anon

while I'm all for not policing how someone feels on the inside, nonbinary is such a fucking...god, it's the worst of this whole hornet's nest because it really calls into question just how far you can go before you're reinforcing gender stereotypes instead of trying to break out of them. when you've done a full 360 and warped all the way back around to "girls wear dresses and like to shop and boys like sports and trucks and gosh today I feel like I like trucks so teehee I must be NB." like. that can't be how it works. it just can't, or else you end up in a paradox. if that's how gender works then everyone is NB which means no one is actually NB.

Yeah, I kinda see it as a societal stepping stone to when that hornet nest is opened. There's the whole transmedical argument (you need gender dysphoria to be trans vs you're trans if you identify as trans) that I'm also interested what the popular opinion will settle on.

This is how I feel. I wouldn't go around telling people this out loud, and I can't assume there is no one who really feels, deep down and apart from gender roles and stereotypes, that they are neither male nor female - or they are both - but most of the time I can't help but wonder what the NB identity is based on when there's really no apparent difference between the NB person and all the people I've ever met who very comfortably identify as either male or female, even in the midst of behaving in stereotype-defying ways.
