    you bad. You were debating the validity of a widely used term for gender expression and denigrating the use of “non-binary” as latching onto a futuristic term.

      discussing how a word feels to me is not denigrating, it is expressing an opinion.
      i was never debating the validity of a term, i was commenting on my own personal opinion of the aesthetics of the term… which is entirely valid and i will always respect any person’s preferences of references…
      odd coincidence that binary is being used constantly in every other aspect of the world at the exact same time non-binary was popularized, don’t you think?
      do you really not get that connection?
