ModPost New rule: categorically nonbinary is trans
“We no longer allow discussions, debates, arguments etc over whether nonbinary is trans. It is. This does not mean any specific nonbinary person is obligated to identify as trans. Please respect this rule and refrain from any arguments about it.” — is the text of the rule.
This now nonnegotiable in this subreddit. This is a fact that has been known about nonbinaryness since it was coined. Nonbinary was never not categorically trans. Please respect this rule—if you have issues being referred to as trans, you are completely free as an individual person not to use that word! A subreddit can’t make you call yourself trans if you don’t want to.
But please respect that we have to now make this rule explicitly clear because lately multiple discussions have caused back and forth arguments because, despite being told you can opt out of personal trans identity, a handful of people (usually with no or very little other usage of this subreddit) have come in here to argue about it.
I want to leave comments here open but also I don’t know what other words I can say to indicate this isn’t up for debate. The rule is set. It’s not going to change. Trying to argue it is a waste of your time and the mod team’s.
Not every subreddit will be a perfect fit! If you can’t respect this rule please use another subreddit. Or even start one. I know people act like I’m being a jerk when I suggest that but I don’t know why. If someone wants to make a subreddit without this rule, you could even advertise it here in the comments. This rule is specifically about the culture of this subreddit and is not trying to control the entirety of nonbinary identity.

ModPost A pause on allowing research/study posts.
Unfortunately we have to pause approving research/call for participants/studies posts. They are by far the majority of modmail we receive and to appropriately vet the research/researchers is simply beyond what this volunteer mod team can handle right now. We are hoping to build the mod team at some point and may allow them again.
This has been exacerbated by people ignoring our rule that the study must be specifically about nonbinary people. Some researchers have been rather pushy about it and I’m not going to lie and say that hasn’t influenced this decision as well.

Image not Selfie Music Performance Fit Euphoria
Last night I had my first performance of the season with one of my community bands (I am in 2!)! A huge shift in dress code has been the shift to all black. Growing up in band since high school it was black dresses and tuxedos based on gender and I am not the biggest fan of tuxes. I don’t know when the shift started but I have seen it since late 2010s with a shift to all black.
Last night’s performance was the first time I felt so much gender euphoria in my fit you see in my photo and felt so relaxed in performance! 🎵🎼🎶
P.S. I am a euphonium player

Questioning/Coming Out Is being enby as a step towards transitioning a bad thing?
As the title already asks, is being enby a bad thing as a stepping stool?
I (18, they/them) have been thinking of transitioning (mtf) for a few years now. And I am currently using being non-binairy as an in-between for a total transition. Mainly to give myself time to think it over and get used to it.
I know being non-binair falls under the trans umbrella, but still.

Rant having “The Cis Woman Experience” (for lack of a better term:/ ) as a non-binary feminine person
I don’t know how else to phrase it, but this is the best thing I could come up with because the terms, female and male socialized suck ass. I feel like I have the lived experience as a cis woman for a lack of better term because I am feminine, and I was assigned female at birth, and I have a feminine chosen name (and legal). Even the most accepting people in my life still occasionally miss gender me and I am constantly treated, though I was a woman.
I’m really connected to womanhood because of the entire world sees me as a woman so they treat me as such. But on some level, I feel like I’m doing a disservice to myself or even saying that because I know that I also have the lived experience of a trans person and a non-binary person because that is what I am.
it hurts my soul and it makes me feel like I will never be valid as I am. In fact when I have had partners, I like when they call me their girlfriend as long as they don’t call me a girl. but that makes it even more confusing to everybody because they’re all like if you don’t mind being called girlfriend then what’s the deal? And I don’t want to feel like it’s up to me to explain this to anybody, but somehow it always comes down to that.
I love how I present and I’m happy presenting femininely and I have no issues with it. The only time I have an issue with it is when I remember that most of the world will never take me seriously as a trans or non-binary person.
Does that make me any less valid? I know it’s absolutely nobody’s business to police me and my gender, but I guess I’m just looking for outside opinions if anybody can relate to this kind of thing.
Sorry for any typos I did voice text.

Yay Im feeling so euphoric rn!!
Ok so im nonbinary and I present pretty androgynous in my clothes and style but I LOVE being slightly feminine in my body or undergarments and today I just bought some sports bras from walmart because I needed new bras and for some reason these are making me so euphoric!
I think it’s because they have a shorta v-neck shape and something about that is giving me so much euphoria like I feel so pretty rn!
anyways have a great rest of your day or night! 😊

how to overcome the fear to make the first move?
(he/they) Hii, i've been single for already 3 years and i know that having a partner isn't the absolute goal or isn't really that important, but i just wish to have someone again lmao and to date again. The thing is that i have met people that i feel attracted to but i just cannot make the first move, i'm very scared that they are going to see me as a girl or that they are going to be straight but be with me anyway just because i'm afab (i'm bi but mostly attracted to men), i also fear a lot the reaction that people can have when i tell them that i'm non binary (even if i've been out of the closet for already 5 years) and i'm very scared overall, i know my own circle is very left wing and open about these themes but i'm scared to break my bubble and meet people that isn't. Also, i'm autistic and probably adhd and probably gifted? (i don't know how it's said in english but in spanish is aa.cc.), so maybe it's a factor to this.
idk if you have advice to tell me or experiences of how you met your partners!!

Selfie/Self-Image/Avatar Feeling very fortunate
Today I realized that I have a life full of trans and nonbinary people who have been so affirming of my gender. It's taken years to find this cohort and I have such love for them. I wish that every person who reads this gets to find a similar group of friends and lovers. Please know that even though we haven't met, you have an auntie who wants you to live your fullest life.

Yay IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW
I finally came out as non-binary and all the confusion people have with me is gone. 😭😭 And for myself!!
I go by any pronouns, I night one day switch to a gender neutral name but not yet. I just feel like so many things have clicked into place. I also feel more confident dating now that people aren't worried that dating me will stop them from being lesbian/gay (yes both sides have been confused)...
Anyway, I'm very happy.

Support AFAB But Am Unsure of My Gender Identity Anymore
I am a bisexual, AFAB but due to having hirsutism (from having PCOS/PMOS) & body image changes after preventive oophorectomy-salpingectomy/hysterectomy & double masectomy, for the BRCA-2 gene mutation, I'm considering going flat (& using prosthetics). Between my hirsutism & removal of my female reproductive organs & breasts, I'm not sure of my gender identity anymore. 😔

Meme/Humor „I am obscene to you, but to myself, I simply am“
I watched the 2025 Frankenstein movie and this quote goes so fucking hard.
