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

There can't be a non-collective conception of gender, though. Given that gender is a social construct, some gender exists only if we have some shared understanding of what it is to belong to that particular gender. If there is no collective conception of genders, there are no genders. Perhaps what you meant to say is that we should be working towards gender abolition. I'm sympathetic to that view.

Yes, or that our understanding of gender needs to evolve from where it has been.
