It's just another manifestation of suffering. (Subconciously being attached to particular experiences) its just a deeper craving, the grass always looks greener on the other side. We can easily go our whole life's chasing that gold at the end of the rainbow. Trying to figure out what identity to have, it's just more attachment, trying to find something solid and unchanging. When we observe our mind/body seriously, eventually we experience deeper, subtler aspects of our minds. And we know through real experience that everything is constantly changing, nothing is permanent. But it's seeing it for yourself that allows the suffering to dissolve.

I throughly do not understand genderfluid/non binary as a identity. Many people describe it as being fluid in there style of dress, such as dressing stairotypically feminine sometime, dressing stairotypically masculine other times, or even a mixture of the two. Other people or even the same people describe genderfluid/non binary as a feeling that is constantly changing throughout their life. As it regards to clothing why is it in 2024 that people feel like they are genderfluid, non binary, or a trans man if they dress more masculine as a biological woman or dress more feminine as a biological man? Why are people not allowed to wear what they want and not be persuaded into thinking they have to change how they identify? In regards to the changing feelings, why base your identity on feelings when feelings and emotions themselves are so fleeting. Why aren't people able to just be the sex they were born as and express themselves through style, attitude, knowledge, experience, etc. without being brought into thinking that they way the express themselves means they have to be genderfluid, non binary, or trans and not just a man or woman that expresses themselves in a certain way. This is in no way directed towards people who have been diagnosed gender dysphoria and have suffered with that their whole lives, and I hope the medical industry get better in that regard so people with gender dysphoria and all other disorders are able to live in this world without suffering as much as they do.

These comments are incredibly disappointing and even somewhat scary. But I need to say something. Even if Courtney never sees it. I've grown up with you, Courtney. You've been the representation I needed. The only validation I personally encounter is here at Smosh. Everytime Courtney's identity is brought up, I CHEER 🎉 for them. I cheer for all of us that don't fall on the binary and instead want to fall on the floor! And I can finally, truly, ignore the haters and cheer for myself. Because we ARE valid. Thank you, Courtney, for consistently putting the "them" in Theminine.

Just because someone has different views than you and disagrees with your choice on how to view gender doesn’t make them a hater. In fact, most of the people I see spreading hate are the lgbt/non binary community, but you don’t see it as hate because you agree with the opinions they try to force on others.

You might be looking at it in the wrong direction. The stuff they said doesn’t dictate anyone’s gender, but _for them_ having a constantly fluctuating gender causes the feelings they describe here. I know a person who would have preferred to be perceived in a nonbinary way out of frustration with how people treated her based on her gender. I know that I would like to be perceived in a nonbinary way because neither gender feels entirely correct regardless of how people would treat me. Same desire for different reasons.

@@Null-value ok but not knowing what to wear is something anyone experiences at times (not to mention a 1st world problem), it's not a symptom of being "gender fluid" or anything.

None of those people are a different gender because of it, they just break norms and express themselves differently.

@@marvinmiller2983 you are correct. There are many people whose identity matches with their birth gender who choose to present themselves without following norms and honestly? All the power to them! Society has had that particular stick up its butt for far too long. But gender nonconformity is at the end of the day a choice. Being genderfluid is not a choice. I don’t have any control over what gender I feel like today. It’s a thing that just happens and I try to deal with the issues it brings. It’s worth mentioning that non binary and genderfluid people can experience dysphoria. But most of the transition therapies are slow acting and permanent changes, meaning that full transition would ALSO cause dysphoria. So alleviating temporary dysphoria requires temporary changes, which is why genderfluid people focus so much on clothing. It’s a practical means of managing dysphoria.

I suppose I didn’t explain the not knowing what to wear thing did I? I can only speak for my experience, but there is a really annoying thing about being genderfluid. Most of the day I am trying to do the rest of my life. But I have to get dressed at o’ dark thirty in the morning. So I have to figure out what my gender before I’ve even had coffee and I am not awake enough for introspection. If I get it wrong then I get to feel cruddy. Having to do that introspection is frustrating, hence the desire to be able to just go around as a bare soul and not have to deal with all of that at 5 am.

I understand not wanting to be seen as girly or masculine. However I think these people are too obsessed with how others see them; “do I look too feminine today” etc.. It’s fine to feel neutrally about your gender; why does others’ perception have to dictate that? Imo it’s not factual to believe you can change your genes or that you do not fall into the male and female dichotomy. you are either male or female even though you don’t have to wear dresses or pants. not to mention, all of this extremely first world problem and privileged.

"I struggle with what i'm feeling..." Interesting. I always remember Bruce Lee's iconic line, "Be like water, my friend." Allowing your mood, feelings, & perception to shape your presentation to the world is what everyone does. It might be a leap but Bruce Lee tells us how water in a cup becomes a cup and so on. If you wake up aggressive, annoyed, and all around not likable, then, do you want to present as gender male? If you wake up feeling like you are pretty, caring, and supportive, then, do you want to present as gender female? Mood is fluid. Feelings are fluid. Does how you respond to your feelings make you "fluid?" Everyone is fluid. Be like water. But take care not to become so formless that you lose your grasp on who you are, as for so many that lose something in change that a part of them is gone. Will changing so many times shave off a piece of yourself to where no one can recognize "you." All they will see is the shapeless and unrecognizable.

I love the water quote but as someone who is genderfluid I have a very different interpretation of it than I think you might. For me, sometimes I feel like a boy, sometimes a woman, and sometimes just like an amorphus blob just chugging along in life - but regardless I am still me. Water in a babling brook is still water, waves and swells in the raging ocean are still water, water that is completely still and placid in a lake is still water. It doesn't transform into Soda or dilute into cordial. It can be calm or distructive and can behave or look so different from one day to another... but at its core it's still water. Similarly, I take on different "forms" that are often called different things by people, but I'm still me. Sometimes I'm an enraged woman, a sheepish dude, a caring brother, or a loving aunt/uncle. At the core of it though, I'm still just me. The form I take on might change, but I'm no less "me" regardless of which form I'm in at the time.

@@zaykay5462I have one question. On the last part of your answer you said "i can be an enraged woman", " sheepish dude", "caring uncle", etc. My question is, what makes you feel either like a female or a male? Why don't you just feel like an "enraged person", "sheepish person", "caring person"? I struggle to understand what makes one feel the need to switch to another gender. If you're still you, why aren't you just you, but have to change between a "woman you" or "male you"? What are the characteristics of woman and man? I'm genuinely curious, but don't answer if not comfortable.

@@saramonteiro4922 I can’t speak for anyone else, but for me it is like this: It’s not that I feel a need to switch to a a different gender, but rather that my gender changes of its own accord by some unseen internal mechanism. As for characteristics, my own experience is that my comfort with body parts, my internal voice, and my self-reference change with my gender. If we want to continue the water analogy, I would say it is like a river. Rivers are constantly changing, their banks reshaped by their own existence. But the river cannot choose to stay the same, and trying to force a river to stay the same shape comes with a host of problems. Much like a river, my gender changes over time, trying to stop it from changing causes problems, and having a beaver gets awkward sometimes.

@@Null-value thank you for answering! I think I was interpreting the "not identifying as a gender" as not identifying with what society, and ourselves even, interpret and expect of each gender, and when our internal sensations don't relate to that, and relate more to another gender's , we feel that we are in the wrong gender. But your experience seems to be more related to an internal discomfort. Like trying to find what best matches your self Identity. I like the water analogies going on in here 🧘♀️
