          Their stance sounds more like gender abolition…

          It’s basically “we made up gender roles, and they’re useless and harmful. Let’s just get rid of all of it, and let everyone express themselves however feels right”

          It’s the only end goal that makes sense… Adding more labels helps people understand the box they’ve been forced into, but ultimately we just need to move past all of it

              I don’t think that’s a fair reading of what they said at all

              Gender is indeed irrelevant at all times. It doesn’t exist. It’s a set of expectations you impose on another person and have imposed on you… Realizing I don’t have to explain anything to anyone is my personal answer, I just need to stop forcing myself to pretend.

              Gender roles exist, but only to people who believe in them. You can break them at any time. You don’t need a category, you can just be you, moment to moment.

              I can’t think of a more accepting position for non-binary or genderfluid people… Some people need external validation, but ultimately it’s about how you see yourself

      Other than peeing while standing being easier and my inability to give birth, I’m not sure I can come up with another 9.9% of the time to fill that gap.
