#non-binary community

[June 1, 2022]

I want to start this post off first by saying...

HAPPY PRIDE MONTH!!!

I’ve been part of the LGBT community for a while now, since discovering in middle school that I was bisexual.

I’m now coming to a new part of my life and realization that I’m now still confused on.

I like dressing both masculine and feminine, and don’t care if people misgender me and think I’m a guy.

I might be non-binary but I’m not entirely sure. 

I need to do more searching and research and maybe see what the non-binary community’s experiences are?

I do often like to switch up, but when people say she all the time to me it never bothers me, I also don’t want to confuse people and make them have to ask me daily what pronouns I use.

On some sites I do say they can use whatever they feel like for me, he/him or she/her.

I also enjoy building a personality around what pronouns they decide to use for me.

I’m a very weird person it seems.

I wonder if this is what non-binary feels like? As I also feel like at times I have no gender, I know my sex is female but as for how I feel on certain days it ranges.

Some days, I constantly switch from dressing feminine to masculine and vice versa and I will usually identify in my head as how I’m dressing.

I often though feel shame for it due to those I used to be around in school so I think it’s bad or wrong but I used to thing that about being bisexual once as well.

Like...we can’t use nb because it already stands for non-black and we shouldn’t take that term from the black community, ...but on the other hand a lot of us don’t like “enby” because it seems infantilizing.

So why not “enbian” for short when we don’t want to keep typing/saying non-binary?

I know we already sort of use it as an adjective, but we can easily have it be a noun too.

ex: “Raven is an enbian.”

“We are part of an enbian support group.”

“We discuss enbian issues.”

“Trans men, trans women, and enbians are all part of the trans community.”

So...I have some ideas on things to do, like make non-binary focused positivity posts, make space for respectful non-binary discussions (NOT discourse), and non-binary resources. But idk where to go from there or how to actually actually make this a thing. So if you have ideas/advice/whatever, rb or comment in the notes or send me a pm, I really want to see a non-binary community on tumblr.

To anyone who’s trans, and has been harassed by this person, I’m so sorry.

To anyone who doesn’t know this blog, maybe take a look at them. Honestly, I’d like to save a lot of the people the pain of this headache of a person, so I suggest promptly blocking them.

As a non-binary pan myself, I find this person disgusting.

Thanks for listening.
