    […] Is that “nonbinary” is not the most accurate term for people because it, seems to me, to imply that gender is binary.

    It does not imply that. If it did, it would defeat itself, because there is no place for nonbinary in binary. It implies that a slice of gender can be seen as binary (Men and Women), but there is more to it.

      “Hi, I’m not a lobster. Nice to meet you.”

      Their point is valid: the term only makes sense when the negated trait is the norm.

        I can see how people could have problems with that, yes. It is just not what I understood from the comment.

      Ok, I’m not trying to assert that really, just guessing why…
      It seems like they’re just an anti-trans troll creating a bunch of alt accounts calling their mod account (DraconicNEO) an anti trans troll in order to be confusing and chaotic and pretend like they’re the joker or something…
      It’s impressive how obsessed they are I guess.
