I'm not part of the "community" so it isnt really for me to say but I can help but feel that non binary people are mostly looking to be special. Queer Theory has done a good job of of making non-normavity sacrosanct, and that has resulted in people going out of their ways to show upward unique they are, ironically by adopting views and beliefs that everyone else who buys into the ideology also believe.

I think of there are some genuine non binary people who arent doing it for attention they are doing it because they have backwards ideas about what it is to be a man or woman and they feel they dont live up to those ideals. I think that is dumb and wrong. A feminine gay man is just as much of a man so the most masculine straight man out there, and the same for women.

I'd really just love it if everyone could be happy being who they are, I feel non binary people are lost and confused.
