    Ok now I get why people say she’s dismissive of nonbinary people. Trans people are supposed to pass? Like I’m nonbinary and agender. What am I supposed to pass as? A rock?

        i’m really glad everyone is so sweet and considerate. I often don’t even feel trans enough or that I’m not doing anything, since most people don’t even know I’m nonbinary unless I tell them. I’m not on HRT or anything and don’t have discrimination from my immediate family (extended family is a different story). All I’ve really faced is that coworkers and random people don’t understand or believe me, they say I’m just making stuff up. But I know who I am and so do my comrades, so I’m really grateful for that. At most I sometimes feel like I’m “supposed” to present androgynous, but why? I’d rather just be comfortable and present how I feel like. I mostly dress as a mid-90s lesbian, like with skinny jeans and boots lol.

        My biggest enby victory so far is a time when I went to jury duty. I’m registered in the county with my gender as “Other” and so the judge had literally no idea how to address me. Kept going back and forth between “Mister” and “Miss” and that kind of ruled.
