RE: Non Binary Kids

in #gender8 years ago (edited)

I personally can't relate to those who refer to their gender as non-binary, but there were times in which I felt that I didn't fit into the existing cathegories and started trying to explain myself by using words I had created or thought decribed my situation better. Often these kids feel like they don't belong, like an alien, and I think that has a lot to do with the adoption of identities that aim to differienciate themselves from what they observe as the norm, what people assume of them that they don't identify with.

There are people who think there is such a thing as the ultimate men or woman, since they can't achieve the 100% of things people think their sex should be like or do, they protest this in a number of ways, sometimes by rejecting the idea that there are trends that tend to manifest given a person's biology, which can be quite dangerous.

Yep. Definitely dangerous. And I am keen on this subject because a core part of my wellness was becoming comfortable with my sexuality. That I am, in fact, hetero-sexual and male, and that I do cry and have strong, powerful emotions and that's fine also.

I think identifying yourself within your core being, whether you are hetero, bi, homo, or trans is healthy in my opinion - separating yourself from that is not healthy. But again, I could be wrong. It's all opinion and speculation from my end right now
