We use "sila/siya" in our language and it automatically means he/she/they

Fun mini problem with being out, my Spanish class. My professor asked for pronouns and El/Ella is just staring at me.

Not really NB but my mom got me a trans pin. She still won’t call me her son. Yet she says she supports me. Still waiting for the day she calls me a handsome boy 😞

i came out as nonbinary yesterday with a cake that my friend helped me make, and i feel obligated to let you all know that it was basically a gender reveal cake

I came out to my parents as Nonbinary over a year ago. My mom started using my "new" name half a year ago, my dad only before a few days, after my therapist talked to him. I've got friends in school who I'm out to and they immediately started calling me Leigh. I'm proud that I've come so far, I even cutted my hair short and started wearing clothes I like. As I'm a person struggling with depression, I often think I will never live the way I want to, and it's good to see how far I already came.

i'm not even nonbinary but i like to watch these kind of videos :]

I was forced to come out as nonbinary to my parents last night because my mom found my second Insta account. It ended with me screaming at my dad so yea😗✌

It is still wierd for me to be spoken about with he/him or they/them instead of only she/her because I was adapted to my old pronouns a lot

No i was 2nd but hi just came out still call me her cause my mom "doesn't do pronouns"

I came out a few months ago and can attest these are BIG daily struggles. Thanks Laurenzo. Glad I'm not the only one

My parents said they supported me as non-binary, and yet still won't use my preferred pronouns and name. It's caused a lot of confusion when I'm writing my name or saying my name or pronouns, because I want to be true to who I am, but I don't want my parents to hate me.

My parents arent supportive of me being non-binary/genderfluid and refuse to call me by they/them (because I'm not more than 2 people) but school is really supportive. I love Laurenzo's videos, they make me so happy and make me feel like I belong. Keep it up 😁❤

Did you know that in Spanish the word "non-binary" has feminine and masculine endings? That's hilarious!!! "Nonbinaria" and "Nonbinario"

I'm Spanish, and here we use an e as a gender neutral alternative, so instead of saying "ella/ello" we say "elle"

Well, my first language is Arabic. I took French in school, and Arabic is even more gendered than that. Even our “you” pronoun isn’t gender neutral. As someone who’s questioning their gender, this is really frustrating, but I doubt anyone will try to figure things out over here

And yes You’re actually really funny !! You help so many of us ! We’re so grateful to have you ! You’re such an inspiration ! Love you 💙 Your non-binary friend Arrow 🏹

I hope when I have a kid they feel confident enough to tell me anything they need to because I'll just be happy that they are mine 🥰

I personally use "E" At the end for Spanish for a neutral ending for non binary Amigo= Male Friend (El) Amiga= Female Friend (Ella) Amige= They/Them Friend (Elle)

Thanks for the vid! Speaking at plural seems really tricky indeed x) I’m french and tho we struggle a lot with our « gendered words » like you said, at least our neo-pronouns (we mostly use iel) are singular just like il/elle are or he/she in English ⭐️

My struggle is getting other people to use my pronouns, no matter how much I remind them.

I’m so sad because, I’m 11, and have had my friends call me Charlie and they/them, so I KNOW I’m non-binary, and I’ve been slowly trying to hint to my parents that I don’t wanna be their little baby Ava anymore, and I asked to have a ‘boy’ hair (I believe myself that hair has no gender) cut and they said “we can talk about this when you’re a LiTtLe older” but for me I know that means “when you ask in three years like you did this time we can just shut you down because WE like you having longer hair”

Trying to talk neutral on spanish can be really discouraging. I know some non binary folx that would like to use Elle/le/e (spanish for They/Them) but it gets messy to explain, and they don't feel prepared to explain it to others :( So they put their prefered pronouns only on english. Personally I think that the more people using it, would become less ""weird"" to listen/talk/write and people could understand it better, but I obviously respect pals who prefers sticking to the binary pronouns.

Love your channel!!!!! You help me sooo much!

Why are your videos so adorable :3

This really helped!! Thank you!❤️❤️

I have a question Is it ok if I choose to not come out as non binary to my family since I’m from an African American family and my family is closed minded and old fashioned

My friends are supportive about it and my friend is even nonbinary too. But how should I come out to my BEST FRIEND, she is not that educated on LGBTQ+ things involving gender and pronouns. And I’m pretty sure that she will be okay with it but I’m not sure. How should I tell her?

Yess! Portuguese (Brazil) is the same thing! Have the feminine and masculine in EVERY adjective aaaaaaaaa

This is kind of off topic but are you guys watching the inauguration?!? 😆💙

Thank you so much for that Laurenzo, I still struggle sometimes cause I’m out as non-binary finally and people say they’re supportive, yet they still don’t call me by my name or use my pronouns , I mean I go by any pronouns and ppl know that but they keep only referring to me as she/her ! I know it will take them some time but I hope they can call me by name soon ! Also since ppl don’t call me by name irl even though they know it and everyone online call me by name , sometimes when ppl call me /deadname/ irl I don’t answer or turn around cause I feel like they’re not calling me if that makes sense 😅✨

I’m demigender and I’m still deciding wether I want to use they/them or a lesser-known pronoun like ze/zer so this video helped somewhat

I’m still sort of figuring out how I identify? I’ve struggled my whole life with how identify and just didn’t know enough about non binary / gender fluid stuff. I’ve been debating starting to use they/them pronouns and it was really helpful to hear you talk about having trouble adjusting to other people using them, because I feel like that might be the case for me at first and I wondered if that meant something more significant, it’s nice to know it’s something others experience too

I just came out non binary! You were a great role model for me coming out and everyone is so supportive 😊 Thank you!

Its Midnight, I’ve been watching your videos all night. They really inspire me and motivate me. And I’m not gonna stop soon because they’re worth watching

Although I'm not non-binary my best friend is and they're so scared of correcting people who say he/him and I really wanna help them but idk how

Hi! I'm enby too. A problem I have is my parents still calling me their daughter out of habit.

Thanks for posting this!🖤 Im a Non-binary kid and im currently struggling to come out. You're videos help me so much!🥰🖤

My friend just came out as they/Them and they were so scared that they went to me and my friend first. We immediately Showed our support!

this is literally my fave LGBT channel!

My issue is french class which is ✨ mandatory ✨ as you need a foreign language to graduate *Il Elle intensifies*

I've gotten used to calling everyone they, since most people I talk about, I don't know their pronouns and I feel that's most respectful. So now I have to teach myself to use other pronouns (She/Her, He/Him) 💀

As an italian non-binary person I struggle with pronouns and and names too. But I found out that in the italian vocabulary is been approved the ə. Basically you use it for neutral adjectives or names. Here's an example: male: amico female: amica non-binary: amicə When you use the ə is mute, so it kinda feels like a dialectical form but with time you get used to it. For pronouns, with my friends I've been using ləi. Here's an example: Male: lui è andato a comprare il latte Female: lei è andata a comprare il latte Non-binary: ləi è andatə a comprare il latte. I don't know if "ləi" is in the dictionary yet but for now I'll use it as a solution to my pronouns problem only among friends. I hope I helped some italian non-binary people with this comment🙂

I'm a closetted nombinary ftm, it's hard & stressful being closetted. But I do wanna come out. My mom is anstrict Jehovah's witness & anytime we bring up lgbt+ she goes into full blown rants about sin & religion. I don't think she's going to handle it well when I'm ready to come out

its the same with arabic we have the ending to refer to a male or female and its kinda weird when u refer to enby or anyone who use they/them in plural but im getting more familiar with that im using they/she pronouns as well and my friends never used they/them to me bc i think it sounds weird to them😭

I have a question: What’s done of the best ways to tell parents you want to change your name?

Woooo

I have the same issue with French. In French I use the new special non binary pronoun "iel" but indeed there is that same problem about adjectives being pronounced differently. I just use feminine in that case to break the "masculine prevails" which is everywhere in French.

Idk which one to come out first that I'm bi or non binary which should I do first?

At first I thought I was Gender-fluid, but after a little less than a month I was like wait, my gender is not fluctuating, but I’m not a boy or a girl...and I still feel like a have a gender so...Non Binary! I came out to my family and friends over text because COVID. Everyone in my family was accepting! And my friends! Even my grandma, who’s mom was a grammar teacher. I think finding a name was the hardest for me. SO. MANY. OPTIONS! Anyways, hope y’all have a good day!

This made me realize that there’s a strangely high overlap between my non-binary friends & my Italian speaking friends... The last time I had a conversation about using their pronouns in Italian v. English w/ one of them, this friend decided it was easier to use the pronouns they were assigned at birth (in Italian) instead of going through the hassle of explaining gender identity. We were also working at a school in a more rural area of Italy, so they didn’t necessarily feel comfortable outing themselves to our coworkers & students. I hope that Italians have more of a dialog about this issue, since I’m curious to see what solution(s) they reach

Pronouns are weird it’s even hard for me at times to remember my own pronouns like using them in my head i call myself the right name but pronouns are even hard for me to get correct

You are special. You are loved.

I’m 15 and I came out to my mum a while ago as non-binary after debating to myself if I should 😅, and her response to it was- “HUH?!”. She knew what non-binary was! Because I’d told her a couple days before what it meant in preparation. Blah blah- stuff happened and she says that she is fine as long as I’m ME but she thinks I’m too young to know anything about it. A couple days later I asked her if she could call me by They/Them pronouns instead of she/her and she said that no one calls anyone by they or them and went on how it isn’t a thing. Pls if someone is reading this could you give me some advice I don’t know what to do :,) No matter what I tell her I couldn’t get her to believe me.

about the pronouns in other languages, i really dislike when ppl put * or x at the end of words bc it’s unreadable, but fortunately in Portuguese (which had the same issue as other languages that originated from latin) the neutral pronoun is becoming more popular, so instead of saying the articles like a (fem) or o (masc), you can use ê, for pronouns instead of ela (fem) or ele (masc) you can use elu, and for word terminations, -a (fem) or -o (masc) you can use -e so for example we could instead of saying latinx which is unpronounceable we could say latine (which is still neutral and pronounceable!)

I do have those issues regularly when talking in my native German. I don’t live in Germany though, so that isn’t an issue. I’ve been non-binary in my head a looooooot longer than openly, so I don’t have that much of an issue there. My biggest struggle is getting other people to respect my pronouns in every day living without feeling like I am being a hassle. Everybody basically ignores it.

ive recently come out as non binary but im struggling to tell people my new name, what should i do?

i take spanish and she just has me use what ever i was with the genders

When you’re dad and sisters assumed my gender omg

Do you have any tips on coming out if you might be unsupported, I can’t be deadnamed and the wrong pronouns used on me anymore From Alec, she/they girlflux

Tysm for the video 💛⬜💜🖤

In my language depending which pronouns you use not just is are change but also rest of the damn words so sometimes I try so hard to see how tf should I say some stuff

Spanish speaker here!! People are using the letter E to try and remove pronouns from words so like friend in Spanish is “Amigo/Amiga” but it would be Amigue. Now it does sound weird and there are times where it doesn’t make sense, so it makes me a bit uncomfortable hahaha that’s why I just go for she/her pronouns. I hate it here 😂😂

hi i actually just came out today but my dad keeps saying the wrong name or the wrong pronouns bc he forgets can u help me to get him more used to me? he’s struggling but he’s trying and i want to help him in anyway possible

A couple weeks ago I tried to explain to my family what nonbinary means and about the pronouns, I'm german so it got really complicated at that point because our literal translation of 'them' is the same word as for 'she', but the form of the verb is still different and 'their' is also different and at the end I had the feeling I had more questions than them 🙈 Everything I know about it is through english... So if anybody can recommend a video or something for german language, that would be perfect 🙈 Ps: I love these videos

I support this community because we have are own opinions on who we are but we are all people

Hey! Idk if you talk about this in your other video (haven't seen it) but, in Spanish the community is trying to endorse gender neutral pronouns by using the letter "e" instead of "a" (femenine) or "o" (masculine).

Question. Can still get surgery top and bottom mtf. And still be non binary?

How long did it take for people to respect your pronouns?

👏🏻👏🏼👏🏽👏🏾👏🏿✨

can anyone help me with how to tell my parents that I have a new name now? like literally H A L P M E H

Ok so i want to come out to my mom about it but I’m honestly scared 😬 how should I come out to her, any ideas? Also I feel like she will say “ur to young”

in portuguese is dichotomic like that... but we recently have been using neutral (not oficial) neopronouns. they are amazing srsly. (ela/ele/elu)

You have an amazing personality and I love your content

I'm Brazilian and we speak portuguese, since everything has a Gender, People are using Elu, Delu, Não-binarie etc, i think it may help for People who speak similar leguages

Kinda off topic but your hair looks great!

Ok, so I'm not a non binary but still enjoy all of your videos.. I'm a little young so for the terms I don't understand, I literally have to Google it to see what it means lmao.... But I'm fine with it cuz you are spreading a beautiful message and putting an entertaining twist to it too

Where u get u flag?

being nonbinary, I didn't think it would be that hard to be respected, and I didn't think I was that boring that they would forget all about me being nonbinary. It really sucks because I just want to be respected and treated as an adult and not a child anymore.

i almost had to come out as nonbinary and pansexual cause my friend who talks to everyone found my secret tiktok account, and atleast on the moment I thought of telling him my friends dared me to do it, and I just forgot to change it back, he believed me lmao

when you get a popup for FTM surgery on the video:

What do you do when you get outed?

I live in Greece and we don't have a translation for they/them cuz it sounds like feminine pronouns

i’m watching this because i’m planning on coming out to my mom today

How do I ask to become non binary cus I know my dad and others in my family don’t support lgbtq I’m not sure what to do

I came out as non binary to my parents at least 3 months ago and they still don’t use the correct pronouns and I feel uncomfortable with correcting them I don’t know what to do :( I also don’t know what to do with my hair or name because I don’t want to have to ask my parents wherever I can change it but I don’t know whether I want to or not too

How to speak asterisk: AmicBEEP

So I have a question and I’m not sure if you will be uncomfortable with it? So what gender were you originally born as? I love your videos 🤗

Ngl I was just staring at the nonbinary flag Its SO pretty

I came out but my dad doesn't use my name because "we've been using it for 13 years", so I don't know what to do.

I’m nonbinary and lesbian and I have only came out to some friends and not my parents so idk what to say. I think I should atleast tell them in non binary but idk how

Im not Non-binary but I love these videos :D I dont know how to come out being bi tho :( Love your videos tho :))))))

In Portuguese seems like is the same as Spanish, French and Italian... I am trying to learn how to be a better ally and respect pronouns but I really don't know how to call nonbinary people in Portuguese, when even people/person in Portuguese is a female term. Pretty Tricky!

In belguim for they/them pronouns they use hun/hen or Hun/Zij pronouns which can be a struggle for some ppl cause there arent alot of ppl who are nonbinary in my country ;-;

Second pog!!!!

I have a weird situation, I identify as a male and I am fine with being male it's just I am not really into masculinity or femininity kinda in between/a little bit of both , I don't know if there is a term for this XD not a gender problem , i just want to know wat this is

I have a question and i'm really sorry if you find it offensive i'm just wondering about something. Being non-binary is like being outside the binary , not being a girl or a boy. How do you know what a girl or a boy is or classify's as so you can know that your not that?( like what characterizes a boy and/or girl? ). Again i'm so so sorry if i shouldn't have asked this i' just curious.

ummm....Hi?

I’m questioning my gender and who I like but I’m scared bc my dad homophobic and if I’m a different gender and/or like someone else I’m gonna be so hated 😔✌🏼️

I got mixed signals from my dad it was weird

My friend we do A lot of text role plays and stuff and I am non-binary so she’ll be like Hai Gurlll oops hey Friendddddddd
