This is the most incoherent thing I’ve read in a while. There’s hardly any discussion of dysphoria or bodies but lots of talk about fashion. These people think “gender identity” is something akin to the soul but the way they talk about it is pure style.

I'm increasingly viewing non-binaryness as more an expression of trauma and a desire to be understood as not a typical [insert birth sex here], and less to do about gender itself at all.

Yes. With a heavy dose of reinforcing sex-based stereotypes on the side.

I'm just gonna step into this circle jerk to point out that it's ok to just not weigh in when you have no idea what the fuck you're talking about

Is your basis for the idea we don't know what we're talking about that you disagree with us?

more the fact that you're sitting here musing to each other about things you're incapable of understanding firsthand instead of literally just listening to the people who actually have these experiences, but what you said is more internally consistent with said circle jerk so w/e

I, too, was once a young person desperate to be special so I’m pretty sure I get it.

I don't think nonbinariness is (though it can be) an attempt to be special; I think it's much closer to unresolved trauma expression.
