    Excellent article. Just came out as gender queer. It’s terrifying being myself, but I 100% agree. They’ll keep pushing because it’s my very existence that offends them.

    Putting myself back in that binary box feels like death, because it is. It’s a spiritual death. Not just for me, but for generations of people to follow.

    So, I’m going to keep dressing how I like even if it offends. Because it also encourages and inspires other people like me and you.

      Your very existence is an act of revolt, and I hope it upsets as many reactionaries as possible without compromising your safety.
