View submission: Do non-binary identities reenforce gender stereotypes?
. If a woman likes things associated with men that doesn't mean she has the gender of a man , shes just a women with the interests that stereotypically more men are interested in. If a man wears a a dress and acts feminine that doesn't mean his gender is that of a woman.

Then what is non-binary? Where does it fit in?

Being tall and short are deterministic. You wake up 6'5, you're tall. 5,6? You're short.
If you at 5'6 feel really tall you have little man syndrome. You act all big. You puff your chest and stomp when you walk. You have the inside feeling of being a big guy.
6'5 and shy, bashful and nervous. You speak quietly. Noone hears you walk. You drive a tiny compact car. You have the inside feeling of a small guy.
This is the difference between gender and sex. One is a feeling inside you based on how we gender characteristics an individual may exhibit. The other is determined at birth, tho it can be more complicated. Like what if you're born tall but your legs get blown off and now your short?
