JAMIL:
I accidentally misgendered someone who was rude to me on here because I did
not know they were NB. I instantly corrected myself but NOBODY reads your
bios, people. *PLEASE* include your pronouns in your screen name to prevent
misunderstandings/offense if it's important to you.
sMEGma THE GENDER GOBLIN replies:
For what it's worth, the black community has asked that we use 'enby' for
nonbinary people, as NB typically mean 'non black'. I only know this because
someone corrected me a while ago, so I try and share the info.
To which JENN KUNZ replied:
Folks just need to be careful because some non-binary people find enby to be
infantilizing and really dislike it. Been told off a few times for using it.
When in doubt, use the full term "non-binary".
To which BTR1701 replies:
Actually, Jenn, the hyphen in 'non-binary' is super problematic. It yokes two
words together in an orthographical celebration of heteronormativity.
Also, 'non-binary' is an anagram of 'nabon riny', which is Malagasy for 'I'm
sorry'. This implies that queer folx should repent or something.
Do better.

The last thing I want to do is hurt you, but it is still on my list.

Where are the apologies for referring to "people" those who identify as
cats?
