This is a reminder that being nonbinary is not bad in any way. It's just as natural as brown eyes, shortness, strength, red hair, or being a woman or a man.
Being nonbinary is a natural expression of human diversity, and has all the goodness and beauty that entails.
Though the status of nonbinary people in a society change with time, we remain inextricably part of humanity.
Our roots are older than tradition and reach deeper than dogma.
There is a lot of emphasis placed on pursuing and being in romantic relationships even for nonbinary people.
But you are important as a nonbinary person regardless of your relationship status.
You're valuable to your community and yourself just as you are.
Being nonbinary is as natural as every other way to be human. It's blood, tears, and the mundane moments that make up a human life.
There is no way to extricate nonbinary people from humanity at large. We are innate to it.
Fitness is for nonbinary people, too.
Yes, there are gendered facilities, spaces, programs, and clubs that leave no space for us. But we are welcomed in many others. Finally, we can make our own spaces.
There's room in the world for nonbinary fitness.
Join Ely Pride to protest the recent Supreme Court ruling that the term Female relates only to gender assigned at birth. This is a huge step backwards for trans rights, safety and inclusion.
We will be meeting Monday 28th April at 7pm on Market Square, Ely
You can love yourself for being nonbinary.
It may take time and a lot of work, but you will overcome the artificial self hatred instilled in you by the cowards of your childhood.
You will come to love yourself because an indomitable being like yourself is worthy of it.
If you need permission to look into medically transitioning as a nonbinary person, I'm giving it to you.
Gender affirming care is something that belongs to you, too (regardless of the various legal barriers you may need to overcome).
You deserve a chance to explore and feel happy in your skin.
If all you can do right now as a nonbinary person is survive in spite of bigots, then keep at it.
Hateful people want you to give up. Your community needs you to survive.
With time, I hope, that you'll also live for the joy you deserve.
I might be a hippie but I'm still fabulous though. #nonbinarypride #femmescanbethems #transmascfemboythings #genderfaunet #nonbinaryhippie
I am poisoning the blood of America
My body is a weapon against fascism
My sexuality an act of terrorism
I make myself a target
To draw fire from others
I practice acts of guerilla kindness
I welcome others into my community
Your cruelty makes our ranks swell
Twigs snap, but faggots are hard to break
You may not like it, but this is what peak trans agenda looks like.
I think one of the biggest moments was when I realized that, like the improv show "Whose Line Is It Anyway?", it's all made up and the points don't matter.
Gender is a social construct. A collection of things we're supposed to have, not have, like, dislike, find attractive, act like, not act like, etc.
But all of that is just social pressure to conform to an ideal of femininity/masculinity. And the people I see trying the hardest to draw those lines in the sand, are also the people I'd trust least to have *any* say in who I can be.
...
I guess I just stopped giving many fucks about what others think about shit that isn't any of their business. I'm poly, pan, and nonbinary—life's too short for arbitrary restrictions.
(Excerpts from a Signal conversation on gender)
My gender rolls a d20 while I'm asleep and tells me the result when I get up. I've learned not to worry about it too much
