Non-binary and other invented genders aren't truly gender identities. If you look at what they post, you'll realize they're primarily experiencing a coming-of-age complex, wanting to return to their pre-pubescent, gender-neutral childhood.
But this isn't gender dysphoria, and non-binary people often don't take any hormones and, after a couple of years, become normal adults.
Yet, they often speak on behalf of the LGBT community, and many liberals support this, even though, in reality, they're cisgender heterosexuals with youthful maximalism and some personality disorders.
I agree that, for something to be a gender , it needs to be part of the wider culture in some sense, like third genders are in the pre-modern world. I would argue though
>experiencing a coming-of-age complex, wanting to return to their pre-pubescent, gender-neutral childhood
meets this criterium in the west, particular in regards to protestant purity culture, even if i don't necessarily think it's a beneficial outlook on life.
>>5227>wanting to return to their pre-pubescent, gender-neutral childhood.there is no such thing.
humans are gendered and sexed almost immediately after birth
but even then, the condition of being gender non-conforming IS the condition of NOT being incorporated into cisheteronormativity.
It is normative gender and sex that are constructed, not the other way around.
You are peddling essentialism
