Re: What's your opinion on nonbinary identities?

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, this is what gets me about it. Do they really think that the average person goes around thinking "wow, I sure feel female today!" or things like that? I didn't even know that the concept of feeling male or female was a thing until I saw people talking about it on Tumblr. I understand it in the context of being trans, sure, because in that case it's a matter of your gender not matching your physical body, so of course there's going to be a dissonance there and you're going to notice it. But for people who aren't trans? I'm pretty sure most of them don't put much thought into it at all, even the ones who are stereotypically traditionally masculine or feminine.

It makes me wonder what sort of warped ideas they have about how the majority of people perceive or experience gender.

Or--and get this--like trans people, they don't feel like they match their body! Surprise! I happens!

Do they really think ...

No, I don't really think that. What I think is, "Shit, I have to put on the cis masculine performance next week because I'm going to be stuck in suburban Florida caring for my elderly parents who laugh at jokes about queer femininity, in an environment where I don't know any of the safe spots, and I'm going to miss more scheduled meetings with my support groups, get into conversations where I'm backed into using gendered terms for my life partner, and probably sign documents that are unnecessarily gendered. And I'm just so sick and tired of doing work to pass, doing work to teach the people around me, doing work to watch for the people who could flip out and get violent, doing work to explain that I'm not comfortable in a church that can't decide whether I'm an abomination or not, ..."

So I suspect that the average person ends up thinking about less than half of that. It's not something I dwell on because I'm much more concerned about which average person is going to freak out if I'm not playing the game to their standard.
