Ah, ok, you're just a fucking asshole then. Let me remove the "adjacent" from my above statement.

What kind of response do you want? You're telling me I'm some Hitler-loving maniac just because I don't believe in non-binary genders? Just because I am on the (correct and true) feminist position that gender should be abolished and not reified and expanded into a million new categories that only serve to alienate people from each other and confuse everyone.

Where have I even implied that queer youth should be excluded from attempts to help the homeless?

A response that didnt mock my autism would have been a start. Showed your true colors with that one. I have absolutely no interest in engaging with any of your shitty truscum/terf talking points.

I will say, I'm a gender abolitionist and so is like literally every nonbinary person I know. They arent incompatible.

I'm sorry, I shouldn't have mocked your autism. It's just that your username is very funny.

Gender abolitionism isn't compatible with non-binarism (binarity? binarydom? binaryness?) because non binary genders rely on the gender binary itself to express themselves. I've read many non-binary people talk about how this action or behavior makes them feel more masculine, but these other things make them feel more feminine. It seems that to be non-binary is to be always obsessed with gender perception. How is that abolishing gender when you're still describing everything in terms of masculine and feminine-coded behaviors?
