I very much believe that gender is not a binary, but most nonbinary people I've been familiar with seem to be in some confused rebellion against how small the boxes of "girly" and "boy things" are, rather than being some kind of both and neither.

Yep!

I feel like being transgender and genuinely feeling you're a guy/girl and your body doesn't match and that causes you distress is totally valid and a different thing.

But being like "oh, girls/boys don't like/do X or girls/boys can't do/like X *and* Y so I must be non-binary" almost seems like they're playing into gender stereotypes and the way the traditional/conservative people think things should be. Why not instead be like "no, fuck you, girls/boys can do/like whatever the hell they want and it's not up to you to decide"?

Yeah, I always feel like all those people are actually reinforcing gender stereotypes instead of "destroying" them.
