It's okay to let people be who they are.

I’ve eaten so much ice cream this afternoon that I’m definitely non-dinary this evening.

And I’m too bloated to think about cleaning, so I’m non-shinary too.

What a great day Grin

Someone I'm Twitter friends with has spent a lot of time telling us what non-binary isn't and how they (see, I can be polite) like to see pronouns in bios. Also how they are worried they would be misgendered if we all met up in real life.
I guess everyone is entitled to be a bit boring and think they are the first people to discover whatever it is they have discovered.

Eat too much junk and you might become non-shitery so be careful @Sophocles

Yikes Confused hope not! Better have an apple, for balanced nutrition.

That's what fibre supplements are for. Grin

Every single person I know has a biological sex - including trans people.

As for gender identity, every single person I know is non-binary.

I am trying not to throw too much away. I am non bin-ary.

ErrolTheDragon · 14/07/2021 19:56

Actually I think I've just realised the answer to Life, the Universe and Everything is more comprehensible if you're binary

Happy non-binary day. Pretending humanity is divided into just men and women is so binary. There can be transmen and transwomen too. We don't need to force and bully and threaten people into pretending they believe there are just men and women depending on gender identity, we can be honest and accepting and admit there are transmen and transwomen too - not the same as men and women but that's OK. Because we aren't binary. Binary is so restrictive and it does get exhausting having to conform and pretend all the time when we could just all be who we really are and admit it.

We don't need to force and bully and threaten people into pretending they believe there are just men and women depending on gender identity

And we can all have the beliefs that we have, without any compulsion to believe things we don't and think are harmful and absurd! Happy Days!

@Ereshkigalangcleg

Everyone living or who has ever lived is "non binary".
Except for those in IT. They're all about binary.

I am trying not to throw too much away. I am non bin-ary.
If you also stop making new purchases you’re non buy-nary.
somethinginoffensive · 15/07/2021 07:30

Is it still non-binary day today? Or do we have a new day to celebrate?

Ereshkigalangcleg · 15/07/2021 07:44

Sadly it's no longer Non Binary Day Sad

But cheer up, as today is National Tapioca Pudding Day! Glitterball

Celebrate the day by having a tapioca pudding at your home or a restaurant. If you have free time on this day, then try your hand at making your tapioca pudding. You can use your creativity to make it more exciting and delicious. One can get recipes easily from the internet. Tapioca can be used in a variety of dishes, so think out of the box to make something similar to tapioca pudding. It is unfortunate that many haven’t tried tapioca pudding yet, so take National Tapioca Pudding Day as an opportunity to try them. Many people have had bad memories with tapioca pudding as a child because of its sticky nature and this day can help them eat their nostalgic dessert. Post pictures and share your National Tapioca Pudding Day celebrations on social media by using the hashtag #TapiocaPuddingDay.

It's also National Orange Chicken Day and National Gummi Worm Day, for those too exclusionary or basic to celebrate tapioca, or other starch based puddings under that umbrella.

@RufustheBadgeringReindeer

Nicely put avocadowoman

Its beyond me why mumsnet allows these threads to be posted on this board

At best its an honest post in which case it should be somewhere like LGBT children/parents or maybe chat

At worst its goading and looking for screenshots

Why on earth would a thread that has nothing to to with LGB be posted in an LGB forum?

Gender is nothing to do with sexuality. Sexuality is demonstrable, can be seen throughout history and can still get you killed.

Gender is just an idea or a social construct and it changes over time. Please don't be homophobic by conflating the two.

RufustheBadgeringReindeer · 15/07/2021 08:18

Personally i dont conflate the two

But the board is LGBT, which includes non binary, if you’ve an issue with that take it up with MNHQ

Sophoclesthefox · 15/07/2021 08:19

To be fair to Rufus, shedbuilder, she mentioned the LGBT board, and as non binary is part of the T, it could belong there. Rufus isn’t homophobic!

So as it’s National tapioca day, let’s all have a bubble tea and be friends Brew

Sophoclesthefox · 15/07/2021 08:19

Cross post.

Ereshkigalangcleg · 15/07/2021 08:41

Is bubble tea tapioca based? I did not know.

RufustheBadgeringReindeer · 15/07/2021 08:58

Thank you soph
