Is non binary about gender roles not sex?

I am so thoroughly confused. I am a biological female, yesterday I bled the radiators, re pressurised the boiler and watch tv when my biological male partner but the toddler to bed. This is non binary?

Attention seeking is all it be about.

I actually think we're going about the whole gender discussion the wrong way. There should be no particular behaviour ascribed to either sex and then gender wouldn't be a thing anyway. I find it very annoying when people talk about being assigned the wrong gender because they hate wearing dresses/ want to wear a dress (I have definitely heard people say this) because those things are not biologically defined are they? I think I'd be much more open to people feeling that they really were biologically wrong in the first place if society wasn't so ridiculous about what being a man or a woman actually means.

I don't understand this either. People say they don't identify as either a man or a woman so they are non-binary. I don't identify as a woman, I am a woman.

I think when the kids are using it they mean 'androgynous' or 'GNC'. But then of course they pile a whole lot of crap on the top of that. Because as we all know, sex is a binary blah blah blah.

I don't get 'non-binary' at all. I really don't. Everyone is either male or female, that's it. Everything else is just your personality.

It particularly pisses me off when it's used by the likes of Travis Alabanza as an excuse to use whichever changing rooms he fancies on the day.

No. Just no.
