If you haven't been aware already, I am nonbinary, and use they/them pronouns. I am also intersex, and went through both puberties without medical intervention at 9. Where things get really interesting is:
I am a Salmacian/Aphrodisian, and I have been one even since I was transfem rather than enby (nonbinary).
Basically I am pursuing a nonbinary surgical transition option (which WPATH v8 standards of care now covers.)
So yes, I will end up eventually being able to defuse the "what's in your shorts" argument just as quickly as I can defuse people who claim people are only two genders. The operation in question only adds, but doesn't remove anything. (Since I have epispadias I can already defuse that.)
In VERY late May 2020, I became legally nonbinary on my ID, and since I never had any prior form of identification, and I got that X marker from the start, I'm IMMUTABLY legally nonbinary, and combined with being intersex...
Now here's the thing. I cannot medically binary transition either on hormones or lower surgery. So I'm literally (but willingly) stuck as an intersex enby. Fate sure has a sense of humor. Secondly, I formerly was *more-or-less* transfem for a year, and I am VERY sure that I am not a trans girl. I don't call myself transgender or trans either, but trans* and transandrogynous ARE fine. (Rumors and Lies has a section on how I am not binary trans.) Oh, and if you're thinking I was swayed into this path by evildoers, remove that idea from your mind.
I tried to keep this as worksafe as I could. (But given that I tested my 4GiB sf2 on Yu-No, I'm one to talk.)
