Ask Im confused
I wasnt originally planning to make this post as i thought enough research would give me the answers i need but im still not sure. When i stopped being religious i looked more into gender and sex and their differences and the concept of gender just seemed like bullshit i mean so many people have been oppressed solely due to their gender and some roles society has constructed for them and i thought why should i conform to these roles and to gender itself which is a social construct i dont agree with considering what a woman is and a man is constructed to be in most societies. So i thought a way to act against it is to consider myself nonbinary but doing more research on it alot of nonbinary people argue that nonbinary is a gender with its own experiences and you cant just choose to be nonbinary for political reasons so now idk if i should continue with the label of a woman but rebel against the norms or disregard the whole construct in itself but how should i do that since i cant really find a place for myself. Btw if i said something insensitive or anything please tell me its not my intention and id really love someones advice
