View submission: Do non-binary identities reenforce gender stereotypes?
You simply aren’t reading my comments or are refusing to understand. Our understanding of used to be a certain way, rooted in some things that were always immaterial and some that were material but lacking depth. Now we have greater insight and can more clearly see the spectrum, biological and social, that makes up humanity, and I assume that understanding will continue to grow with more time. Therefore our language must evolve with it as has our behaviours. Obviously there are always some that cling to outdated models, both linguistically and socially, but society as a whole will continue to move.

This sounds like you’re arguing for ‘sex is a spectrum’… it’s not.
What is the obsession with ‘gender’ all about, exactly? The need to fit everyone into little boxes? Why?
There are males and there are females. In recent decades, society progressed… Martha Stewart became the world’s first female billionaire. Same sex marriage was legalized. “Gender nonconforming” behavior was seen as no big deal. Was any of the aforementioned bad?

I have literally broken down what you are saying and responded to each individual point.
If I'm getting something wrong then you aren't explaining yourself well enough.
Our understanding of used to be a certain way
We created it, of course we had an understanding of it.
rooted in some things that were always immaterial
Examples please?
and some that were material but lacking depth.
Again examples please.
Now we have greater insight
How can we have a greater insight into something we created?
and can more clearly see the spectrum, biological
There is no biological spectrum.
It is binary.
We have XX and XY.
Man and Woman.
Anything else is a fault, disease, illness, growth etc etc.
and social,
We have certainly added on things that we do not need.
that makes up humanity, and I assume that understanding will continue to grow with more time.
Understanding of what? And continue to grow to what end?
Therefore our language must evolve with it as has our behaviours.
Our language should evolve with our requirements but we still need a Base to work from.
Obviously there are always some that cling to outdated models, both linguistically and socially, but society as a whole will continue to move.
Sure but there are also scientific certainties which will continue throughout.
