trans masculine non-binary

[myslippersarepink]

The daily fail headline is Oppenheimer star Emma Dumont comes out as trans masculine non-binary and reveals new name
I won't link.

But what does trans masculine non binary mean?

Doesn't non binary mean you're neither of the two sexes? What is trans masculine? A trans man? If so, why use different words? And what do the two things mean together?

I'm so confused 😵‍💫

@myslippersarepink its just getting more and more confusing......too much word salads. I'm a mum of two bi sexual teens and even they are confused!!

So confusing

This. Absolute fucking nonsense.

It means ‘I have pronouns in lieu of a personality’

Attempts to be relevant? But it appears to have escaped her notice that people are less and less enamoured with this nonsense.

It means they need to get out more & realise they have a first world problem.

I don't know anything about this actress, but I do have a friend who's trans-masculine non-binary. They've had top surgery and take testosterone, and do not identify as either a man or woman. I don't find it any more complicated or confusing than anyone else's gender. They're not an attention-seeking person at all; they're very reserved.

It's true narcissism.

Publicity seeking. Possibly also has vegan cat as per DT.

A word salad of attention seeking nonsense. Me! ME! MEEE!

I've no idea but I was sent an email today and the sender's pronouns were "she/her/they/them" 🙄

Why on earth are they taking testosterone if they don’t identify as male or female?

It's a severe case of 'not like the other girls'.

I haven't asked them why they take it. They have said that the physical effects of testosterone have helped stop people treating them like a woman, though, which was something they wanted.

Top surgery FFS.

What a ridiculous euphemism.

How on earth have we got to the stage where any of this is acceptable?

They take T so they don’t get treated like a woman? So logically they want to be treated like a man.
That makes zero sense but whatever floats theys boat.

As a trans man I can quite confidently tell you that I....don't know. But I've had what I call a "people headache" for years now and I'm sure it's just getting worse.
My ex came out as a Fae a while ago and uses Fae/Faer pronouns and there's not enough Anadin extra to even begin to unpack all that.

What exactly is “being treated like a woman”? Being expected to do all the wife work? Being sexually harassed? Being patronised and ignored by male engineers? Being paid less than men? Being afraid of men? Being expected to wear heels?

Well, we’re all fucked off with that shit, but I don’t think the answer is to take cross sex hormones and destroy our physical health.
