#exorsexism — Public Fediverse posts

“There are only two genders.” “You just want attention.” These frantic statements are the dying breaths of an ideology.

These defenders of a rigid gender binary have been reduced to shouting hate behind anonymity and bluster with no hope of changing us.

Such acts are only to briefly lessen their own fear. They are afraid because we are winning.

So, keep fighting. Continue winning.

Make life difficult for those who wish to oppress, erase, and destroy nonbinary people.

Your oppressors are spoiled and accustomed to getting their way. They expect you to give in without a fight.

So, resist and make them afraid. Resist to keep other nonbinary people brave.

It's hard and often dangerous to be yourself as a nonbinary person.

The way you dress or otherwise present yourself now might be more authentic, but it comes with a price. You shouldn't have to pay it, but, nonetheless, you must.

It's alright to grieve the loss of respect you once received from strangers. The new love you're shown by other queer and lgbtq people will help heal you.

You're nonbinary even if you "look cis" according to some.

Nonbinary people take many forms, many of which are dissimilar from each other. Your appearance is simply another normal variation.

You have nothing to prove.

It may be hard to be nonbinary now, but hold on.

You have come so far. You have looked at what is said to be everything and found it lacking. You have braved the unknown and such stigma and still you remain.

You have the strength in you to keep going.

You should be proud of yourself as a nonbinary person.

You've overcome so much hatred and violence, and you still do. You've fought and won vicious internal battles against poisonous ideas inflicted on you. By being seen or by just existing you've made the world more hospitable for others like you.

Be proud that you've lived.

#nonbinarypositivity #nonbinarypride #nonbinarycommunity #nonbinary #bigotry #exorsexism

Waiting for a world where nonbinary people no longer face bigotry is probably not the best use of your time.

Instead, build yourself a shelter from the bigotry. It could be a hobby, something creative, or new friends that make the space for a nonbinary perspective.

You don't have to change the world to feel some peace.

Being nonbinary is not childish. It is an important quality that exists across all ages, just like being a woman or a man.

What's childish is assuming that everyone should conform to one's own expectations, and then throwing a tantrum when people are inevitably different.

#nonbinarypositivity #nonbinarypride #nonbinary #exorsexism #genderbinary

It's hard to be nonbinary today, and it's been difficult for a while now.

It's alright to be frustrated, tired, and fed up with how you're forced to navigate a binary society. Such feelings are natural and you can be honest about them.

But the reasons why life is so hard are exactly why the world needs you.

#nonbinarypositivity #nonbinarypride #nonbinary #exorsexism #genderbinary

I doubt that people are born hating themselves for being nonbinary (or any number of other qualities). It's more likely that self-loathing is given and then cultivated by others.

It's time to let that particular "gift" go.

It's alright to love yourself (in case you want permission).

Remember to take the time to appreciate good things. A nice breeze, cleansing rain, even the sound of your neighbors making dinner.

Life is hard as a nonbinary person. Take a moment now and then to notice what the struggle is for.

Even if the world buries and tries to forget all the love we shared and the battles we won, it'll be written in the fabric of time.

Travel into the future is always possible, but the past is set and blazing with what we were.

Nonbinary people have always been here, as have our other queer and lgbtq siblings.

Your existence as a nonbinary person is extremely important.

Unfortunately, your life is also a war, and every day you survive is a battle won against extremists. They would rather reduce humanity to fit their own small and fearful imaginings, than embrace the beauty in all of us.

I know that you didn't ask for this. I don't want a fight, either. At this point, however, it's our gift to the future to keep living and sharing who we are as nonbinary individuals.

Demonstrate that people are wild, wonderful, and complete as we are.

You might not be where you had hoped at this point in your life.

Being nonbinary can throw a wrench into many plans or at least make them more complicated. Even if discrimination is somehow not a factor, issues with employment, health, relationships, etc. are only ever partially under your control.

Remember that you're more than a series of goals to be crossed off a list.

#nonbinarypositivity #nonbinaypride #exorsexism #nonbinary #lifepositivity

Create what you need to create as a nonbinary person. The hangups of society censor you enough as it is without letting it into your mind as well.

We need what you make. The world needs your perspective.

If you've had to begin a new life recently, then you should be proud of how brave you've been.

It might take a while to build something new. Since you're probably dealing with bigotry as a nonbinary person, it may take even longer.

Starting over was worth it and the time it takes for your new life will be worth it, too.

#nonbinarypositivity #nonbinaypride #nonbinary #exorsexism #startingover

It might be tempting, and even necessary in some cases, to create what is seen as "normal" works of art, literature, etc. and forgo your own experience as a nonbinary person in the process.

Do what you must to survive, of course, but be sure to remember why you create in the first place.

Give yourself a space to be true to yourself no matter the pressures from a narrow minded, external society.

#nonbinary #nonbinarypositivity #nonbinaypride #exorsexism #nonbinarycreators

You deserve respect in all things as a nonbinary person.

You're worth more than an afterthought or being a token in someone else's "diversity" crown.

You're a human being, who is equal to all other human beings without the artificial hierarchies and bigotry imposed on you.

You are more than the value someone might place on you.

#nonbinarypositivity #nonbinaypride #exorsexism #nonbinary

Nonbinary people get invalidated every day, and yet we don't give in.

One has to admire such perseverance and strength.

#nonbinary #nonbinarypositivity #nonbinaypride #exorsexism ..

For as long as there are people, there will be nonbinary people.

No matter what laws are passed, what rights are lost or granted, or how bad things get, nonbinary people will keep living.

Whether in hiding or in plain view, we will remain. And, we will be there for you.

Social mores are not important in themselves.

As a nonbinary person, it's unlikely that you'll be able to fill such mores even if you wanted to anyway.

Leave them behind, because they have consistently failed to consider you.

You aren't alone as a nonbinary person in the world. This sense of loneliness is an illusion and a weapon created by your oppressors to harm and silence you.

Remember that there are other nonbinary people out there with similar experiences, lives, and dreams.

Even if we're not there beside you right now, we're still a big global family.

I know that all the oppression, violence, and dehumanization has become a terrible weight. I know that you'd do just about anything to release it even though you can't really imagine what that would mean. 

Unfortunately, all that pain isn't going anywhere, because that's our lot as nonbinary people. 

But, I hope it can feel a little lighter, when you remember that we bear it right alongside you. For as long as such injustice exists, you'll always have company.

If the gender binary was immutable, then there would be no need to defend it. It would be as inevitable and natural as the sunrise.

But it’s not.

It must be upheld by policing how people dress, act, love, etc. with the threat of violence if one gets caught deviating too far from this forced “norm.”

And I have no interest in being part of a fantasy perpetuated and defended by murderers, cowards, and the ignorant.

You shouldn’t have to be “obviously” nonbinary in order for others to take you seriously as a nonbinary person.

Anyone who expects you to look a certain way before believing that you’re nonbinary doesn’t actually respect you.

And you don’t ever have to compromise on who you are for another’s convenience.

You can be a feminine/masculine nonbinary or genderqueer person even if that technically lines up with your assigned gender.

You're not just faking it, trying to seem cool by breaking gender roles (that can't even apply to you), or are otherwise a cis person with a twist. Your gender situation is real, and no one's shallow ideas can change that basic truth.

And you do not have to change yourself just to match what others think a nonbinary person should look like.
