(I'M LEAVING OFF BLACK- AND WHITE-DRACONIC BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO INADVERTANTLY GIVE AMMO TO PEOPLE WHO WOULD CLAIM WE'RE SAYING WE'RE DEMI-RACIAL. AS "WHITE" AND "BLACK" ARE USED TO IDENTIFY HUMANS.)

🐲 HI, CADE AGAIN

I AM ALWAYS A NON-MAN EVEN WHEN I AM A DEMI-BOY.

BECAUSE I'M NOT SAYING I'M A MAN. BUT A BOY.

I'M A DEMI-GREEN-DRACONIC KOBOLD, A DEMI-BLUE-DRACONIC KOBOLD, AND A DEMI-RED-DRACONIC KOBOLD.

@hannibalismybbg @nullisgay @IsabellaScar2 @granitesys @Friska_Rexie What _does_ "nonmen" mean? I'm curious how you are using the term here.

(It's never "explain it to me because I want to learn about people who aren't like me", it's "explain it until I am satisfied with your explanation, and will treat you as your self-identified gender."

Which is a rigged game based on constantly moving goalposts.)

[Endurant Games @EndurantGames]

Many trans and non-binary people are familiar with some folks' expectations that the cisn't person "owes" cis people, especially cis strangers, full explanations of their gender(s).

It's a super-hostile thing to do.

Whenever some BLERF thinks they've got a "WOAH THIS ONE SIMPLE QUESTION DEMOLISHES ANY MSPEC LESBIAN SUPPORTER" scenario by asking you, in imitation of TERFs, "define lesbian?"

(People will identify as "boy" or "girl" instead of "man" or "woman" for their own reasons, and nobody owes you an explanation of why.

Treating a self-identified "demi-boy" as if they're ... a binary man ... IS REALLY FUCKED UP. PLEASE DON'T DO OR IMPLY THAT.

@xyrnala @Friska_Rexie @IsabellaScar2 @hannibalismybbg @nullisgay @granitesys What's a woman and what's a non-binary person and what's a butch?

Who determines if someone is a woman, non-binary, or butch?

Spoiler: It's based on any given person's good-faith self-identification.
