I think it makes just as much sense to want to opt out of either gender as to want to transition to the other gender, when all that "gender" means is the stereotypical role of the sex. No one is actually going to change sex. They are just changing what stereotype they play, so a non-binary is choosing to not follow the pre-defined A or B, pink or blue, lipstick or facial hair, and instead mix it up.

Obviously that should just be called "personality". Having a cervix doesn't indicate whether you like high heels or boots or flip flops or nikes. It's not non-binary to dye your hair green or wear one earring or black lipstick or whatever.. (we used to call it goth) - it's not an identity, just a style.

Spot on! It's just fashion. When did androgyny cease to be fun and become an obnoxious political statement?

Actually just read this today in a silly (and I mean silly) article called "What Does Gender Fluid Mean?"

<Someone who's gender fluid might also switch between different gender identities at different times, and have different forms of gender expression, i.e. wearing a suit and tie one day, and a dress and heels the next. >

Yeah, I change clothes every day too! They're telling me I can "change gender" by putting on or taking off a tie or a pair of heels? Then why do men need the taxpayer or insurance company to foot the bill for extreme radical surgery? Much easier to take off or put on a pair of shoes. This is all so stupid.
