Enbies. My comrades. We'll be marginalized long after binary trans people are accepted. We get a lot of shit now, but there will be days when everything the whole trans community faces now will be precisely directed at us. And we should prepare to be the next main target, the next universal source of evil corrupting children and ruining society.
What I expect in the next 5-10 years:
- So much more Blaire White-style binary trans people that we won't know them by names anymore;
- Politicians and propagandists talking about "nonbinary ideology" specifically all across the world;
- Legislation that erases nonbinary people from the existence in order to "protect binary trans youth" or something like that;
- The narrative of the right shifting from "you'll always be your AGAB" and highlighting biological differences between men and women to talking about cultural significance of oppositional sexism and moral "unhealthiness" of androgyny;
- Even more talking about language, names pronouns and gender-neutral terms than we hear now;
- Minor signs of support that we get now, such as an "other" option in "choose your gender" questions, being taken away;
We should prepare. We should build spaces just for us, create and support nonbinary content that isn't just a small "nonbinary people exist" after the "trans women are women, trans men are men"-chant, preserve nonbinary history, and more. More darkness is ahead of us. But the sun will rise.
I'm sorry, but as a not binary trans person, the way you're presenting this is actually fucking ridiculous. If you genuinely think that the overton window will shift to include overwhelming acceptance of binary trans people in the next FIVE TO TEN YEARS???? you do not have an informed view of anything going on right now.
I absolutely agree that things can and probably will get worse for nonbinary people, that's not my issue with this post. My issue is that you're vaguely pitting binary and nonbinary trans people against each other when transphobes still currently see all of us as degenerate freaks. If you think that in five to ten years there will be talking points of "protecting binary trans youth" you're extremely naive and misinformed.
They want all of us gone. Legislation is affecting binary and nonbinary trans people right now. You cannot possibly think that this world is anywhere close to affirming binary trans people. Do not fearmonger like this to young nonbinary people who already have so much to worry about. Don't lie to them and act like they aren't being hurt right now by the same legislation and talking points affecting binary trans people.
Please rethink this entire spiel. So many of the things you listed are actual problems right now and they affect so many of us trans people. We don't need any more division right now.
babe I live in a place where transness is criminalised and being charged with prison sentences I know what I'm talking about
