Anyway gender is meaningless outside of what it does for you, personally.

So I don't totally agree here: you think gender is bullshit, I think gender is bullshit, but the people who are using it to make approximately 50% of the world's population into second-class citizens believe in it very strongly indeed. Their actions impact on us, whether we personally find gender meaningful or not, and to protect folk from gender-based discrimination we need to think in terms of gender.

I agree with what you mean entirely, i am so bad about specifying these kinds of things but i was speaking to personal Gender, where one makes decisions about how they reflect themselves in the roles, behaviors, and signifiers one inhabits and wears

The politics of gender is rife with meaning, foisted and undesirable meaning, usually. However one cannot just ignore these circumstances. I dont tell cis people im not strictly speaking a woman; getting acknowledged as femme is an exercise in either going all-out, where i can sometimes pass and not trigger their Gender Violation Sensor Suite, the masc identification is what i care most about avoiding and yeah trying to split hairs about enbyism is a recipe for pain tgere so im all to aware that gender is meaningless and also absolutely imbued with life and death meaning lol

You think you can take me at Satan's Hollow? Go 'head on!
Not entirely sure if I'm an enby but a little while back I hadn't gotten a haircut in a while, and my dad drove me out to this dude's house to pick up my truck that was getting worked on. In the car, the dude's wife comes out and she asks me if I like home canning, but then she got a closer look at me and said "oh I'm sorry, I thought you were a lady!". And I actually kind of took it as a compliment like "why yes, I do look like a lady thanks for noticing". I didn't say that out loud though because she seemed like a fairly conservative old black lady and she'd probably think it was weird.

Also I don't know why she thinks only women can be into canning. :shrug:

I mean I don't identify as a woman at all but there are times when I'm like... I don't really feel like being a dude either, and I do like getting mistaken for a woman. Whatever!

Yeah, although it's actual usage in real life is pretty uneven, in my experience. Most of the nonbinary people I know refer to themselves as nonbinary, although most of them are also familiar with enby as a term.

NB got kind of ruled out as a signifier because there was already a marginalized group that used that initialism, although my memory is failing me on what it stands for. A quick search suggests it was already established as meaning non-black, but I feel like my memory is incomplete there.

Yeah I've been fortunate to have met a number of seniors at various points in my 20 years of adult life who thought it was loving rad that younger people drastically defied gender norms and told their elders to gently caress off. They always wanted to do it too but felt too old to take part :smith:

Despite self-identifying as one, I also feel that "enby" as a term is one that I'd only use online. It's a cute term, but that's also the problem. It lacks a kind of seriousness that you'd want as a main gender descriptor. Which is fine though, because nonbinary is perfectly suited to that role instead.

Actually, with time I could see "enby" being used as an equivalent to boy and girl. It's got that lighthearted feel to it.

Woah. I don't actually hold any disdain for non binary people or anything like that. If a person wants to go by that, then fine whatever, live your life. I don't get it since thats not how I deal with gender at all, but I respect people and how they feel about themselves.
