Go ahead and tell all the non binary people that they actually don't exist, it's just all sociological. Is this the new "it's all in your head" stuff they used to tell gay kids back in the day?
Not even going to get started on the transphobia in your comment, trans kids shouldn't get the medical treatment now because some countries are banning it. Great logic, it's not like countries have ever prescribed incorrect medical treatment to LGBT people before. Alan Turing? Who's that again?
What the hell is wrong with artificial hair colours? I'd never dye my hair an unnatural colour myself, but it's a cool look on some people. What is the "blue haired leftist stereotype?" Is it some right wing American meme?
And? How does that make non-binary gender any less real? Which is what you implied with your original comment, by asking if it exists or not.
Many things are matters of social practice, doesn't make them any less real.
So if someone holds the view that they don't believe it's possible for a person to be a Christian even though there's millions of people that call themselves Christian do you think that means the question of whether or not there are people that are Christian is up for debate? That's insane.
You're right. It's about whether nonbinary people and trans people in general deserve rights and social validation. Which they do. End of discussion.
:::spoiler Personally, I'm of the opinion that men don't exist. All "men" are just NBs doing it for attention.
(apologies to trans men for this bit)
