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

View parent comment

Wishing you were thin does not make you thin. Wishing you were jacked does not make you jacked. Which leads me to my main point— wishing you were a woman does not make you a woman. Feeling uncomfortable as a man/woman does not mean you aren’t a man/woman and are nonbinary.

true, just *wishing* for things like being thin, or being buff does not make them happen. but you *can* absolutely take physiological steps to make these things happen, just like a man can take physiological steps toward becoming, and eventually, being a woman.
