AYRT: First of all, that's a false dichotomy. It does not follow that empowering trans people to make our own decisions regarding gender expression, identity, and medical treatment harms acceptance of GNC people. (And that IS how nonbinary and genderqueer got their start, criticism of the coercive gatekeeping of treatment for binary trans people.) There is very little conflict between nonbinary people and GNC people.

Secondly, have you bothered to really look at how gender is constructed in American culture? I've existed in a different gender category for all of my life. I just choose to own that with better words than fairy and fag.

Third, repeating "making up a new gender category for everyone who doesn't fit in" is completely wrong. Few people are advocating that, if any.

Nonbinary people are not trans.

AYRT: Wow, following up wrongness with wrongness. There's the complex history and diversity of people under the trans umbrella to consider. People who cross-dress for reasons of identity have lived under that umbrella more often than not. Medical and legal transition is a complex, messy, difficult, and individual process, which makes creating some sort of "gold star" standard for trans people impossible. It doesn't really help your case that Feinberg and Bornstein both medically transitioned.

But, I'm getting a great deal of help from binary trans people, and I'm seeing the same doctors as binary trans people. I suspect that the wedge between binary and nonbinary trans people is half psyop, and half ignorant young twits who never show up to community spaces anyway. Suffice it to say, this terrain looks really different when people over the age of 30 are involved.

Yes, they are. "Transgender" is and always has been used as an umbrella term that encompasses a variety of gender identities which includes non-binary identities.

Btw, if you think you're in any way standing up for the validity of binary trans people with this attitude, spare me. We don't want or need your support or approval. This is not your community to police.
