View submission: Do non-binary identities reenforce gender stereotypes?
I’m asking because I don’t know what it feels like to know you’re a man or a woman. I don’t think anyone does. We just are.
I guess what I’m trying to get at is that cis people don’t have an innate sense of gender that you think we do. There is no such thing. And in the absence of this “sense of gender”, you assume you must be non-binary. The truth is everyone feels this way.
I wouldn’t know I’m a woman without my physical characteristics. The rest is cultural stereotypes. You could put my brain into a non gendered alien, and nothing about me would change. I am me, my gender doesn’t define me and it shouldn’t define anyone. It’s just a word. I wouldn’t care if I was called the wrong pronouns.
There's nothing here!
