Gay people or bisexuals or any other sexual minority often fail to share ANY experiences with a trans person beyond "coming out". Consider an LGBA+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, asexual, pansexual etc.) and a TNB+ (transgender, non binary etc.) community Expand I know many trans people who do not associate themselves with the “non-binary” identity. In fact, many are annoyed that non-binary has taken over the trans conversation and it has taken away from actual trans people fighting for their acceptance. But that’s a whole other conversation to have. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

noisullitcefrep 3,871 Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 On 9/13/2019 at 4:01 PM, Autumn said: I know English isn't the only language but many languages do have ways of referring to 'them' as a group that could be used to refer to non binary people. Also, many non binary people don't mind if they get called he or she (from my own experience they understand it's unusual to many and sometimes not possible), it's not like they're demanding to be called a specific pronoun, just asking and most likely wouldn't mind if you used a gendered pronoun Expand Yes I get you, but I guess it really depends. Because in German the "they" pronoun already has a second meaning, so it would make things even more confusing I guess we're just right in the middle of change and we'll find a way everybody will feel properly acknowledged!

Guest Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 It's weird to refer to someone as 'they/them' since they means multiple people so it doesn't make sense. Maybe invent a new pronoun if it matters so much Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HighwayGuy 1,498 Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 I identify as non-binary and it’s not about going “too far” it’s about people recognising and appreciating your (gender) identity. I wouldn’t mind if I was called “he” by people who don’t know it’s just nice to not be labelled as “he” by family and friends when you yourself don’t identify with it. OT: I love sam for this so good to have a role model for genderqueer people Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
