Non-binary : a different persective

6 replies

There seem to be more an more women considering non-binary relationships.
I don't get the impression there's a proportionate increase in men considering non-binary relationships.

I don't really know what my question is here. I guess I'm just trying to get my head around the contributory factors and am interested in what others think.

Are the numbers really so skewed, or is it down to media driven visibility?
In the context of the zeitgeist focusing on "toxic masculinity", are men sexually repressed by homohobia, or are the reports that young men are increasingly scared of getting into relationships with women a factor?
Are we returning slowly to a societal model closer to our primate cousins, where social groups are mainly female, with a single dominant silverback and subordinate, itinerant males on the outskirts of society?
Or are women just figuring out that women's bodies are more fun than men's?

I think it’s no different to what it’s always been. I knew several women about 20+ years ago who when they reached middle aged decided they wanted to be with women instead and got divorced.

We just hear about it more now because of forums like this. I don’t think anything special is happening at the current time. I don’t think anything in society can make someone become sexually interested in the opposite sex. My whole friendship group could become lesbians and I still wouldn’t be able to look at another woman that way. Being gay/bi whatever is not something you become, it’s who you already are, in my opinion.

I'm 21. I cant speak for previous generations ! but I know that among my 'galmates', all but one of us has tried or is thinking of trying a female/female relationship.

@NPET Are all but one of your male friends thinking about a male/male relationship? And if not, why the discrepancy?

Do you mean bisexual rather than non-binary @mnmnddddd? I'm not sure women are actively seeking out relationships with NB people and I'm curious what makes you think that they are? Most non-straight and curious women I encounter are interested in other women.

I’ve no idea about the stats but I would have assumed there are a lot more bisexual men out there having ‘experiences’ on Grindr etc than bisexual women. Maybe women are more likely to want relationships though?

If you're attracted to non-binary then you're just bisexual.
