I think the thing other people are parsing as 'gender' isn't 'gender' to me. I talked with a nonbinary friend recently who described their nonbinaryness as sort of... not wanting to be misunderstood as having female traits. This is valid! This also is completely different from-

FWIW, most women do not want to be the “typical woman.” From the masculine perspective, it may be the most typical thing about women.

Who is a "typical woman" anyhow? At 100%, even when they are alone and there is no need to put up a show?

It’s almost as if what you’re describing is some sort of human revelation known as ‘individualism’. If only someone had figured this out before 2020.

I was confused for a while because I thought we were all trying to dismantle "masculinity" and "femininity" as legit categories of traits, but it seems like everyone decided they actually liked those categories... they just didn't like their association with biological sex.

I have totally the same view as you on gender (also as I am not a typical man, but still a man) and till today I didn't quite understood, what "they" wanted with their non-binary etc., but your post made it clear. Thank you for that.
