      Please watch videos of professionals. Intelligent people who are not brainwashed by this "trend" , cult-like movement, with no medical, no psychological background. Taking the gender stereotypes we have been fighting against for decades, to determine you are non-binary is a totally regressive insult to society nowadays.. Listen to this video carefully and pay attention to all the contradictions. Just love yourself without all these stupid labels and also understand that every single human being born on this planet is non -binary ( we all have both feminine and masculine energies within us). What is so special about being called a "They"? Will you die if people don´t call you that? What is the worst that can happen if you are called by your real gender pronoun? Will you throw a tantrum like all those ridiculous-white-privileged tik tokers who have nothing to cry about because they ´ve always had it all and they need a reason to feel they are also a minority. Go to a therapist first. Go to a psychologist first... and I mean a real one, not an LGTQRST ++++ activist. Figure out what is behind your reason to wanna be part of this "trend".

    Labels are great for self identification, third person description and for giving names to emotional discourse, dysphoria or other degrees of gender diversity compared to cis individuals who connect with their physical sex and recognise their gender assignment from parents and society.
    However, I don't understand how a sign of being non binary is feelings of discomfort with gendered language (obviously I not referring to misgendering here; whether malicious or unintentionally ignorant, it is unacceptable that misgendering should continue beyond a correction or introduction to preferred pronouns).
    However other gendered language is different. Ever noun in French or Spanish is gendered, and this gender dictates the possessive pronoun used... Not the gender of the person in possession of the noun. In German and Latin, nouns can be masculine, feminine or neutral and again whether the possessive pronoun is masc, fem or neutral depends on the noun being owned, not the subject's sex nor their gender.
    The idea of pronouns is an English language thing which is why misgendering must be seen as always inappropriate, and offensive if intentional, but cannot feasibly be extrapolated to all gendered language- because a lot of it is simply that, language. The words that are often disliked due to gender association are collective nouns for a group of people of any single or many genders. Yet with all international variations of spoken English and descriptors for male, non binary and female people, I think we are mature enough to know that in the plural, words for 'group of people' when spoken outloud, directly TO a group of people, the gender of the collective noun can be disregarded and whatever word means 'all.'
    This is not the case in third person prose because a description of a group of people may be misrepresented by misgendering, but depicting speech of a character within prose would have the same rule.
    I don't see how referring to a mixed group of men and women as "guys" or "my dudes" can be deemed as anything other than being linguistically old fashioned and a bit sexist, but not offensive since it is a descriptor depicting 'group' and not person or persons as individuals with gender expression. I can't get my head around being offended by a mixed gender group being referred to (directly and in person only) as guys, my dudes, ladies, laaaaads or my gurls!?
    But if you don't agree with me or think I'm looking at this too academically and not emotionally, please share your thoughts with me xxxxx

    • @best_of_ant
      @best_of_ant 2 года назад +4

      It really depends on who you're speaking to and what they're comfortable with. My guess is that a lot of those terms while being gender neutral for the most part, for many they still might have the specifically gendered association with it that makes them uncomfortable. While many masculine terminology has been used as gender neutral terminology as well for a long time, feminine terminology on the contrary has been exclusively used as fully feminine without it being gender neutral at all. That doesn't exclude it from also being gender neutral at all, it's the intentional gendering of it that makes it be excluded from being also gender neutral.
      That's only my take on it, would be interested what you have to say on that /gen

      @@best_of_ant I think giving a specific example, James Charles calling viewers Sisters. (his behaviour is completely irrelevant)
      This is the contrast to 'guys' or 'dudes' I was referring to, though you are right that female collective pronouns for a group are more rarely used.
      What I'm saying is that while everyone's feelings are valid, I don't think the way a whole group is addressed should be policed if it is not being used to misgender anyone or the group. If men and women are happy to be addressed as "sister" there shouldn't be the expectation that the collective noun will be disregarded because trans boys only want to go by masculine pronouns...
      There is a sense of "it's not all about you" with some issues around language used with no malintent.

      Even then if the person is only comfortable with certain language being used around them I'd be using that said language because it's what makes THEM comfortable.

To me non-binary is saying that the binary system is incorrect and that gender and sex is a spectrum that the entire system should be non-binary and everybody fits in the spectrum not just the others in your definition.

Once you no longer declare intersex people as a disorder there is at least three but given the spectrum of the intersex community it's obvious there's more than three and once you include the intersex community you realize that it's very nuanced and it starts blending into what we call the binary

    Came to the conclusion that not to care what your gender is, as long has I feel that I know who you are. I will ask a question like excuse me, and not mention your gender. I can live with that, in a sense your a non entity.
