[–]yousaythosethingsFind and Replace "gatekeeping" with "having boundaries" 23 insightful - 1 fun23 insightful - 0 fun24 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

I know few self-identified non-binary people IRL but this is exactly what the ones I know are like. Feminine but want to feel edgy about it so they call themselves non-binary and now their textbook femininity gets rebranded as something special.

Like the intrepid author, they also can’t “decide their pronouns.” They’re all self-declared they/shes and she/theys and then universally everyone calls them “she.” These proud non-women are also suddenly women or “women-aligned” when they force themselves into my dating pool.

Always about having their cake and eating it too.
