"identity" is such a hard to grasp concept.
In the sense of… I mean I guess being nonbinary is a part of my "identity", since it is a word that I don't reject, and that I use to describe myself?
But at the same time, that's about it. It's not who I am, it's not what my gender is. It's just what I am comfortable sharing about my gender: that I am neither a woman nor a man.

@maunzikation but isn't that what all identity markers are? words that we don't reject?
@lizardsquid probably, and that's what I find so hard to grasp. Idk it's weird. I guess identity means more than one thing? And one meaning is this, and another meaning is "something that says who you are in a way that feels like it's 100% you", and these really don't go together well in my head.
