That’s very brave of you to share your experience and feelings. ❤

I relate SO much with this topic. I’m queer/ neurodivergent, and I’ve just not wanted to bother about fitting into stereotypes of what it is to be a “women”, (in this society) especially when it bypasses my comfort. I like to be comfortable 👏🏼 I also felt weird in my body so I had a breast reduction (not full top surgery since to be that would be too male which i don’t identify with at all) but they’re smaller and makes me feel SO much more comfortable. Thanks so much for sharing 🖤✨

Sadie thank you for explaining more about autism. I am going to do some reading up on autism. P you was missed. P maybe someday you can talk about ADD and how it effects r lives. Hope you girls r doing well.

❤🧡💛💚💙💜 I relate so hard!! I'm a queer, genderqueer, neuro-diverse trans non-binary AFAB person. It took me over 35 years to realize it. But I also recognize your experience of being just a person. Thank you for making this! 🐇

Interesting to hear, thanks for sharing once again. I can relate from the other side and I thought the same things about why the hell do girls have to do that and I have to do these things. I patted myself on the back and thought I was a ladie's man because I got on so well with the girls when I was little and thought I was 'woke' before it was even a thing 'cause I played with girl's toys (as well as boys). I see myself as a man with feminine qualities because of my gay brain's nature, I can be emotional and soft and all that but I still come across as a man while doing that, even a straight man. People don't cop that I'm gay and give me points for 'not being like the other guys'. 😁 But it sucks when I need to be treated with a little tenderness and people don't get that because I'm kinda locked in this role (same for most guys I guess but different if you're gay). I feel I have to be tougher than I should. But damn can I appreciate a good scented candle! 🤣

you dont have to prove anything to anyone, just be you and just try to solve your problems when you actually see them as problems, its ok to be not normal, no one is actually normal anyways

Hi Sadie, LOVED this video. As an autistic nonbinary person I totally relate to a LOT of the things you expressed. I really appreciate you talking about this. I also experience excruciating periods, and I do know that there's a high statistic of autistic folks experiencing higher than average pain on their periods. I'd be interested to know a bit more about what your experience is like and how you've dealt with it? I got to the point recently where it made me so badly ill every month that I went on the pill, which I was actually really upset about but I needed the relief. Thanks again for this video 😊

thank you for sharing this, I relate so much! It's been 5 months but if you are still open to questions, I am wondering if you identify as non-binary, or thought about it? I do and I come from a very similar experience and the experience you explain sounds very non-binary to me, so I was wondering. At the same time I don't really care what pronouns people call me and don't get terribly offended by being perceived as a woman, and do still relate closely to being a lesbian as that is how I identified for a long time. I am also neurodivergent (adhd for sure, autism maybe, not sure) but have never thought about the connection, I just thought this is a common experience queer people have.

[@SadieP]

I don’t identify as non binary only because I think it’s not ok to limit womanhood to that very feminine stereotype. I wanna be an example of a more androgynous female. Also I find the label “non binary” very confusing and also the pronouns get me confused as well. If we could get rid of the gender stereotypes then we wouldn’t need a whole new label for people who don’t fit them.

[@intuitiveturtle]

thank you for answering! I get your point, though I personally don't find it any more confusing than I find the labels "man" and "woman" confusing :) I think it's great we have examples of both people who resonate with being a more androgynous man or woman as well as people who resonate with not belonging to any gender. and who knows, maybe in 100 years being male or female won't mean anything more to humans than what it means for a cat :)@@SadieP

[@SadieP]

Totally agreed!

Hi Sadie!! I'm a trans person, but i don't identify with a specific gender. It was really difficult for me to come to terms with this, because of the things you said in the video, i grew up being really free about my gender expression, and i felt like that. I just didn't felt like a boy or a girl, it was just me being me. As i grew and started to experiment life the way society expects us to, i felt super left out of everything, because i couldn't relate to that expectations, and people just ignore things that are different so... It is a common denominator for neurodivergent people to feel left out of the gender norm, maybe because they're so sensitive, they just don't want to (or can't) sacrifice their comfort for something like that. I found out that a lot of people who are not trans can relate to this, and i think is valid. I remember you saying how uncomfortable you felt about your chest in another video, and i related so much, i think it has to do with the sexualization. I'm about to have top surgery (where they chop off your breast haha), and it has cost me years of thinking if it is the right choice for me, because i actually like them, but they bother me. This is super personal, but i've come to the realization that i feel conected to womanhood in a spiritual level, and my body is the manifestation of that, so whatever you need to do to feel like yourself is the right choice. So glad you feel better with your body now, and hope this will help somebody. Thank you so much for talking about this, and hugs to you and P! (Sorry for my english haha)

Neden turkce alt yazı koymuyorsun artık ?

[@s0larfire]

Really well thought-out video as usual. As a gender fluid person, I can relate to this a lot

[@cazdinleyenkamyonsoforu4174]

Kendim gibi olan birini gördüğüm için o kadar mutluyum ki. Bire bir aynı şeyleri düşünüyoruz bu konuda. Bunun adı gender dsyphoria mıymış? Eğer öyleyse, ben şimdi neyim 😂

[@lucitamagsino6489]

Hi sadie?where is P?

[@corneliusrolando4224]

Bu Videoda cok tatli cikmissin

[@eonyma]

It took me a while to understand that you didn't refer to your etnicity, but you said that you are Jewish because of racist stereotypes that Jews are greedy As a fellow autistic gal, I'm confused, and it's not right to spread racism about any race/etnicity

[@SadieP]

I am jewish due to my mother being jewish 😂 i guess you’re right but it’s not a stereotype thing, it’s just so true for me

[@eonyma]

@SadieP Ok, understood. So did I get you right, and you were referring to Jews being greedy? It's a stereotype, and if it doesn't hurt you in particular, it doesn't mean it's not problematic. I know some groups of people may joke about stereotypes about them, like ironically use them, but it's bitter because these stereotypes are actually harming someone and promoting discrimination Sorry, my autistic sense of justice makes me do this. Hope I didn't upset you
