View submission: Do non-binary identities reenforce gender stereotypes?

View parent comment

My body parts decided I’m a woman, and I have thus been socialized as one my entire life. And I’d think that’s true for everyone, even if you don’t enjoy or agree with what society has taught you about your gender.

I feel like that’s an odd way to determine you are non-binary. It may just be evidence that you are more logical and literal. I’m a cis woman, but I agree with you. If I were put in a man’s body, I guess I’d be a man. Because quite literally, I’m a man now…

I think it’s more accurate to say non-binary people do not generally align with gender stereotypes and how society thinks they should behave as a man or woman, and thus identity as non-binary to tell society that they don’t agree.

I mean I wear dresses and quite easily align with what people view as woman.

I am still non-binary.
