Things Not To Say To A Non-Binary Person

[@lain7532]

why is it rude to ask someone their pronouns so you don't call them the wrong thing I don't understand

[@ohshedead]

It isn’t rude, it’s actually quite polite

[@gink_ie]

I mean, usually people say "are you a he or a she" when they ask for pronouns which is why nb's would be uncomfy with it. If you were to ask about someones pronouns you shouldnt ask if theyre a he or a she, but ask "what pronouns do you go by" I hope that helped in some way! uwu

I have a friend that just finished the medical side of a full mtf transition. I met her about 6 months into hormones and only really knew her as "K"* the grocery store employee with the unisex uniform. Then her and I became better acquainted and i asked her if she would prefer if I used female pronouns as well as her preferred name. "T" was excited and relieved that I asked. I also let her know that between that point up until her surgery, if she ever felt uncomfortable using the women's washroom, I wouldn't think twice to be there for her. I think she has always been a beautiful human being and can finally see the beauty to match what's on the inside. *letters used for privacy.

[@11jokerchen11]

Considering the widely different body types of even just cis women or cis men already is a huge argument for why this divide makes no sense and it would make much more sense to divide clothes by cut/fit. How does for example a cis woman with a very flat chest benefit from a shirt that's cut for larger breasts because that's "what a woman's body is like"? She doesn't. Because it won't fit well in any size. But if she knows where in the store to go for shirts that fit her body type better, she would probably not feel as awful about her body. The same goes for every body type of everyone of any gender. Shopping for clothes would get infinitely more easy if we knew rightaway which section of the store is for our body type, not which section will show us how much we do not fit a certain ideal or alleged average.

[@44Nevermind]

I've come back to this video a handful of times over the years and I still have no idea what could possibly be so wrong with the word 'unisex'.

[@TheNoobler]

I mean, all clothes are "unisex" because clothes don't have sex. Everything described as "unisex/fem/masc" is an object that shouldn't be gendered at all. If that's not their reasoning, then idk what else it would be. Even still, I get that it's annoying but people really haven't gotten that far yet. They weirdly haven't fully processed that fact yet so I wouldn't get mad, since it's not common knowledge for many people.

[@jeanv1352]

@@TheNoobler Of course clothes are gendered. They are designed for either a male or a female body. If everything is unisex (or whatever word you may use), what are transvestites supposed to do?

[@TheNoobler]

@@jeanv1352 No object has gender. Anyone can wear anything. There are sizes that fit male/female bodies better though, that is true. But a skirt isn't a "female clothing item", it's a fabric shaped into a skirt. As for transgender people, they can also wear whatever the hell they want.

I agree with ^ I indentify as non binary, and i am pansexual, even though i scream "im gay" all the time.

@Tarot Tune Up Most of the time when society mostly goes one way, it is the right way. Most people view murder as bad. Most people view racism as bad. Are they actually bad? Yes. The whole point is gender is determined by dna, you don't pick. The only things that should be identifying as genderfluid are the actual living organisms with male and female organs.

[@kiera1209]

@Tarot Tune Up The Majority would mind their business if the minority would stop acting oppressed and act like they need everything to be changed for them. Literally they changed how we do our graduation gowns at my school because the non-binary students can't stop crying about everything.

"You can be a boy and like flowers, a girl and like cars" - Precisely! And doesn't this undermine the concept of gender-fluidity? If you're a biological male, but identify as gender-fluid because you like flowers, doesn't that reinforce the stereotype that men can't like flowers? I thought we were trying to dismantle stereotypes?

[@renanyctea1247]

I was thinking about this too. Liking flowers doesn’t undermine your gender.

[@michace]

I get what your saying, but nobody identifies as gender fluid/non-binary/whatever just because they like something traditionally feminine/masculine that doesn’t align with the gender they were born as. Gender identity comes from a place of self reflection, what you feel as a person.

[@olivermoore7020]

@@michace Thank you for your response. Counter point: Surely such self-reflection would ultimately be based on comparing oneself to gender-stereotypes? If not, what is it based on? A side point I would to make: one thing that comes up in many of these debates is the idea that "gender is cultural traits, sex is biology" (or variations along those lines). However, I would argue that this differentiation only really exists in the minds of those immersed in modern (western) gender-politics. To most people, "sex" and "gender" mean pretty much the same thing: the only major difference is that "sex" can also refer to sexual-intercourse, whether as "gender "does not - and personality traits (whether they be stereotypically masculine or feminine) don't really come into it. For example, girls with stereotypically masculine traits were traditionally called "tom boys" - but this was never considered a gender, tom boys were ultimately still seen as girls. Surely its better for people to just be who they want to be regardless of their sex/gender? Surely its better to see gender/sex as simply an irrelevant biological quirk that shouldn't matter? (i.e. like ethnicity). And just to clarify, I'm not trying to offend anyone or undermine anyone's identity here. I am genuinely just trying learn, and I believe the best way of learning for these kinds of topics is for people to challenge each other in civilised debate.

The difference between a tomboy and a non-binary person is expression; the way someone looks: masculine, feminine androgynous, or a mix of that. The way someone expresses there gender isn't the same as being any certain gender. A tomboy is someone who dresses masculine and identifies as a woman, and a non-binary person identifies with not being male or female. How masculine or feminine you dress doesn't affect what your genders is, and plenty of non-binary people dress masculine, plenty dress feminine, and there are a lot of people who dress kind of in the middle of gender(androgynous).

Years ago seemed people didn't care about preferences at all. I remember him asking me a few years back if I was gay and I simply said no and took no offense. Just find it ridiculous that now for some reason some of the first conversations you have with someone is trying to find out their preference so you don't offend them. When it shouldn't be that way. We should be able to talk naturally and bond without having to even worry about personal preferences. I mean at the end of the day it's a personal preference so why isn't staying personal during the beginning stages of introduction? Not saying that in a way of dont ask dont tell but in a true world of equality you naturally just talk to people and bond not caring about anything that is visible. I have had conversations with homeless individuals that no one will approach eveb individuals apart of the LGBTQ community because their visible appearance and they were the best conversations I have ever had.

@A M. dude you have no clue how often I get asked if im a boy or a girl, if im trans, and then if I answer, what my genitals are/if ive had surgeries. you say we are fixated on our sex, and yeah, thats probably true! wanna know why? because we spend every day in a body that feels Wrong. most days I cannot even pinpoint why, exactly, but my body feels wrong all the time. like it isn't mine. like it's some mask or suit im wearing. except I cant take it off. and every day, no matter how hard I try to cover it up or change it, people see the suit im wearing and assume thats the gender I am. do you know how painful that is? so, yeah, maybe we are obsessed with our genitalia. because we have the wrong ones. and im sure if you were in that position, you would want to try and get rid of that suit to the best of your ability, too. for some its literally a matter of life and death.

[@Yourhyperfixationandmine]

A M. I’m not fixated on my sex so I’m not sure what your talking about. We get surgery and make fake dicks because it makes us feel less dysphoric. Judging my that comment I’m going to assume you don’t keno what dysphoria is (I’m really really sorry if I you do know what dysphoria is and I guessed incorrectly) so I’m going to explain it to you. Dysphoria happens when you are born in the wrong body. Imagine if you were born with boobs (or without if your female) it would feel wrong right? Like something is missing/attached to you that’s not supposed to be. That why we get surgeries to get rid of something that’s not supposed to be there or to add something that’s supposed to be there. It’s like if you had a bump on your leg, it didn’t harm you but it was big, annoying, and it made you didn’t like the bump, especially when people noticed it. You would get it removed right? That way you would feel more comfortable in your body. The same goes for surgeries to change genitals, it’s to make you feel more comfortable in your own body. I hope I explained this well!

Nikki then wear men's clothing because you have no femininity to flaunt. Men wear men's clothing whether they are pear shaped or fit as a fiddle.

As soon as someone doesnt share the same beliefs they are labelled as transphobic, should lose their job and recieve abuse. Such as in the case of cancel culture.

People have debated for millennia, politics, philosophy, ethics, religion, why cant we just talk about these things without assuming every question someone asks you is a personal attack? How can I learn if I cant ask questions. How can I learn if the answer to all my questions is "oh god you are so close minded." Like they throw their arms up when the statement came up "I dont get it" and shout "well learn!" But I've literally learnt nothing from any of the answers they have given to all that great list of questions presented to them literally. Nothing. Apart from apparently in India there is a third gender? Which wasnt explained any further just slapped on the table like it's a well known fact. These things clearly arent well known or more people would understand the third gender no gender thing, so maby they should talk about it and then more people will know. Rather than throw their hands up and act like all these things are so obvious everyone should know. But then the people who are asking to whom it is not obvious and of whom there are clearly a lot because these questions are apparently so common, learn nothing and come away hurt because theyve been called a bigot for not understanding something that noone will explain to them.

Judging from your profile pic I don't think you are being dishonest, but genuinely didn't understand, so let's take a step back; Society has and reinforces gender stereotypes and roles, that bears little or none at all biological reasons, so they shouldn't matter nor define you, literally quoting the video: ''you can be a boy and you can like flowers, you can be a girl and you can like cars'', but we have a context in which, in the first case, you are a boy liking a female thing, and sure, there are patterns, but the concept non-binary people have, is to not have a strict separation between genders(male and female), but rather a spectrum, and it's a misconstruction on your part that they define themselves as non-binary because they like both, flowers and cars, this would be just another restriction, gender is more complex, it's based on experiences, how you are perceived and perceive yourself, how you relate to other and other relates to you, and being on the extreme of that spectrum for some it's limiting that understanding. Even sex is more complex than memes might let you think and it's not so strictly binary either, been both part of sexuality, it might relate to gender in different ways, but they are distinct. Some non-binary people partly or completely disassociates with the assigned gender at birth due to experiencing social and/or physical gender dysphoria to varying degree, others might be more gender non-conforming.

So it's not necessarily as much of a gender stereotyping thing all of the time, but there are female builds, and male builds, and they are very different when it comes to shapes and sizes.

[@raevermilion4438]

Also remember that there are also junior sections, girls, and boys. It's all about the shape of your body! Imagine having to be a girl, and buying men's jeans. It would be so much harder to find clothes that fit your style and body shape/type. I don't care where you shop, but I personally think it would be a bad idea to combine men and women's clothing sections.

[@squiddymcsquidface3097]

To be honest I take a little from both sides. Usually jeans and stuff from the men's section, and whichever tshirt has the coolest design. I find that the main difference is whether or not an item of clothing has pockets.

[@claudianess1464]

Really? Some women buy men's clothing because it fits better, it tends to be made better and more sturdy, or they like the style. Your premise that there is a "female build" and a "male build" doesn't fly in every case.

[@raevermilion4438]

@@claudianess1464 I'm not saying that if you are female you have to shop in the female section, vise versa. I buy things from the men's section sometimes. But I'm saying that the majority would not like that. Because men's clothing is designed and shaped so differently from women's clothing. Yes, everyone has a different body shape. But if you have fairly large breasts, and buying a men's shirt, most of the time you're either buying a shirt that fits right everywhere, except the chest, or a shirt that fits right at the chest, but not anywhere else. All I'm saying is it's a lot easier for someone who is nonbinary to look in either section, than for everyone else try to find things they like in one.

[@janegrammer1383]

As an ally, Google should be your first port of call for any questions. Of course, Google won't tell you what an individual's pronouns are, but it will tell you how to ask that very reasonable question in a respectful way. Google will also tell you when not to ask a question, like, what section they buy their clothes from. Like, we do we need to know that?? Is that coming from a genuine place of getting to know the individual, or is that just appeasing your curiosity?? In which case the individual is some sort of curiosity to you. I always ask myself that before I ask someone a question. People probably don't mind answering these questions for you. But you forget you probably aren't the first person to ask that question. The individual may have been asked that same question hundreds of times and that shit gets tiring, especially when they experience varying levels of hostility from people who are asking just to deny your experiences.

But if you're a woman, and you like men, you might be attracted to a very very andro/masculine woman but in the end it wouldn't work because you like men (and penises I guess ?) and you wouldn't be sexually compatible.

Could it be that you don't really know what you're talking about, so you spread misconception, ignorance and apathy around so other people can see you as wrong? Seriously, most people do this because they read about it online and "relate" You know what else people read about online, and realize they relate to? Diseases. Most of the time though, there is a healthy reason behind all of it, and it's just your body needing something it doesn't have, like a vitamin, or water.

They come across as so condescending. These questions are valid from people who don’t know much about non binary people. And you can’t just say “learn!!”: you also need to do your job and explain; non binary people represent less than 0.5% of the population and the chances cis people meet some of them are not that high. I’m all for respect and everyone deserves acceptance. But this video doesn’t portray non binary people as friendly. They reject all questions by looking blasé or rolling their eyes. They want people to accept them but won’t make the effort to explain without this kind of condescending behavior. Very counter productive. I get that they can get annoy by some questions and feel angry by stupid comments but saying “you struggle with grammar, I struggle with my life” sounds so self centered. They can’t expect everyone to understand everything from scratch. Regardless of what they believe or choose to believe, our society has been based on a binary system for ages and most people associate gender with the type of genitals. They may find this a bad thing but you can’t get rid of thousands of years of history and science by making statements that the scientific community hasn’t acknowledged yet. This video doesn’t make people want to get to you and understand your struggles, they make non binary people look entitled.

You can complain about these people’s reactions but sadly minorities are irrelevant in this kind of situation. This video just confirms that there are differences between cis and non binary people whereas what you need is to focus on what brings all people together. This video shows people that actually looK happy not to be understood because that makes them different. Asking what you genitalia is is insulting. Asking “are you a boy or a girl?” is not. Basically all this video shows is androgynous people complaining that it’s difficult to wear the clothes they want or to go to the toilets because some people give them dirty looks. Wow... what a good way to get empathy.

I asked a lot of questions that I now know were "dumb". But I didn't know it back then and I learned. What I usually do is, google stuff. I mean, if I have a chance to just go online instead of asking questions in real life, it's a much better option. I haven't met a nonbinary person who ever refused to say which pronouns they use. It's kinda the first thing we say mostly. Usually when I meet someone for the first time I say "Hi! My name is Adri and I use they/them pronouns. You can also use she/her." And I always make sure to know what pronouns person I am talking to uses. Asking is the best way to know. And later on, if you mess it up, a quick apollogy and correcting the mistake, and keep going with the conversation. As for the video, generalization is never the key. Not all nonbinary people think or feel about themselves. Not all gay people or people of color are the same. Not all nonbinary people are going to agree with everything I say. That is just how the world works and that is why it's best to aks a person how do they feel about something.

It seems to me that: 1- Reality is complex. Science understands reality by simplifying it into models. From biology we positively know that humans have sexual dimorphism.

In practice, gender is mostly a social construct. 2.1- Perhaps there are physiological differences between male and female brains. 2.2- If this brain differences exist, then is more likely than not that they are formed separately from genitalia, and hence there are trans people. 2.3 - In all this complexity, it's natural that some people are agender, or if you prefer, non-binary. 3- If, however, gender is entirely a social construct, then anything goes.

I've been trying to simplify and understand the state of the science on human gender. However, what non-binary people are telling us is to not get too fanatical about our simplified visions of reality. If you're curious, read a book; but if you're truly interested in the other as a human being, just try to be a friend to them. That's important because: 1- People that are "different" continue being bullied and murdered because of fear that rises out of ignorance. 2- Teens are asking themselves about their own gender, and they need education to guide them in self-discovery and to help them make good, reasoned choices about their future. However, it seems to me that in the "culture wars" of America in both sides have turned this debate into a partisan fight, in order to simplify people as "good" or "bad". But it isn't non-binary persons! It is both conservatives and (some) liberals! What we need is the opposite: to reach out to people, to make sure that they're not afraid of asking to the right people.

Iris Devine Hahahahaha asking about non-binary gender shit isn’t educating yourself 😂

There is no state of science in gender, it is feminist theory and therefore not a real science. Some people try to put it under psychology but that is wrong, plus psychology has always been really bad at proving their findings. Gender was made in 1955 for the purpose you see today and wasn't even widely used until late 1970s, it was only in feminist theory then. Before that there was only sex and gender was only for grammar, there were 2 of them. So you have three issues that make the foundation too shaky for gender. 1.) it was founded on very bad grounds 2.) the people who pushed it had a very strong bias, most people do 3.) it is too vague.

[@GummyGrave]

Gingie it’s better to ask, most people do not get offended, yes some people are like that but people are also like that when you mis gender their dog

God23 I don’t remember any of them saying they were special. And what do you mean they feel like they have to control us? They never said that
