I know that it has significant meaning to me but I struggle putting it into words to explain it to other people (especially other dya cis people). So like a few years ago I was thinking about if I may be trans femme. I have since realised that no, actually I was just struggling with it for a while because I don’t relate to the gender roles and expectations society puts on men. I now identify more strongly with being a man than ever before, and I love being a man in a gender-way. I just absolutely hate being a man in a “what role men have in society”-way.

    Thanks for your contribution, I can tell you thought it out, but I don’t think nonbinary people are nonbinary just because they don’t fit into prescribed gender roles. I think it has more to do with the way people see themselves and whether or not they feel comfortable with particular labels such as “woman” or “she/her”. At least for me, gender is something more innate, not something that informs how I interface with society.
