At the LGBTQ Youth Organization I've worked with for 5 years, I met a nonbinary adult for the very first time. They're in their 40s and have a kid. With tears in my eyes, I told them that they showed me that I could be nonbinary AND an adult. That I could live to experience it for myself. That "nonbinary" and "adult" weren't mutually exclusive. It was life changing for me.

Whoopdie doo, big deal. Let people explore things and don't judge.

This. This is the thing so many people don't get. Even if it's "just a phase", the feelings felt are so real and often very painful. I remember that for years I couldn't stand looking at my body in tight or 'feminine' clothes and how I hunched over as for people to not see my chest. Because I felt unseen. I felt reduced and limited and misunderstood and I once was told by a person at the café I worked at who complimented me on my androgyny that I looked at the world with such a pained expression in my eyes and I almost broke down then. Because I felt seen for the first time. And not scolded or just commented on for what I wore or how I cut my hair like many others did. And that's what compassion can do. I remember how I started watching Ash's videos and seeing their progress (I hope I'm not using the wrong pronouns, I haven't watched this channel in a while!) and also the kindness even if things are hard and it gave me so much hope for myself. And today I feel okay with who I am and that's why people like Ash are so important. Love, kindness and compassion are so much needed in this world and it will always be like this.

@@sabrinagranger5468 I feel that a lot, with not minding more feminine kinship terms but hating the idea of *female.* Tbh tho for me it probably has something to do with the fact that my first language (the language my whole family speaks, hence the kinship thing) doesn't have gendered pronouns (we have ones that refer to physical sex, but they're not used unless it's actually relevant to the conversation) so my brain automatically converts all pronouns to neutral, but then I'm like "no wait that means they think of me as female ew" and it's just all around difficult.

Thank you for doing this video. I'm 42 years old, non-binary, preferring to have no pronouns at all rather than use the more common "they/them". I am on a low dose of testosterone, preparing to have top surgery in July, and I always felt transmasculine, but not necessarily fully male, so when I first learned the new language for genderqueer/non-binary identities, it just clicked as what I felt. I've identified as non-binary/genderqueer for nearly a decade, since I learned the language to describe what I already felt.

Growing up I just thought I was a lesbian since I didn’t know that it was possible for me to transition! I used to be a drag king in my 30’s & it never accrued to me that I am trans! Only this year that I met my friend’s boyfriend FTM & it really made a lot of sense of how I was feeling. It was the missing piece of the puzzle sort of speak! I’m much happier in a way but there is a lot of struggle at the beginning & my lesbian partner isn’t really happy with it but if she can’t accept which is understandable then I have to look for my own happiness!

I am 59 and nonbinary. It has been quite a journey to find some comfort in my gender. The term nonbinary in itself did not exist till 5 years ago or so, but I knew I am not a man or a woman for a long time. I owe to transgender people for letting me see that I don't have to identify with my biological sex, and at the same time they let me realize that I am not the "opposite gender" to my biological sex. This was in the 90's when so many transgender people came out of LGB community. Until then I believed that I was a lesbian just because the idea of biological determinism was so solid and unbreakable in my and most people's consciousness. I feel human collective consciousness is coming to loosen up more on fixed polarized idea of gender recently and am so glad that this is happening. Thank you for creating and posting this video!

I am 75 years old and just came out as nonbinary this summer. I attended a talk by Kate Bornstein back in the 90s and interviewed Sandra Bem about androgyny and gender salience back in the 70s. I always knew I had a strange relationship with gender, but didn't know how to define it until recently. I am finding more elder genderqueer and nonbinary people on and offline now. We are here.

I identify as Non Binary , I started binging my chest when I was only 13 years old. I had no idea what binding was, so I wore bathing suits under my clothes to school to flatten my chest. When I got too old to get away with wearing bathing suits under my clothes every day, I doubled tight sports bras. Eventually someone introduced me to the Ace wrap bandages, and then finally real binders! I've been binding for 15 years. I have never felt fully female or male since I was young. I have been saving up for Top Sugrery for a long time, and still have a ways to go. But no matter who you are , or how you identify, you are valid! Don't let people tell you it's a phase, or discriminate against you. Even when it comes from our own lgbt+ community. 🌈❤

Same for me, I had never heard about anyone else who was non-binary (or what ever words existed back then) when growing up, and was trying to invent clever diy ways to bind lol. I only got a real binder and a name change couple of years ago, after divorcing my ex-girlfriend. I guess she was always trying to convince me I was actually a woman, even though I didn't really realise it back then.

I didn't really consider how new the term "non-binary" is, which put things in perspective. While I may not identify as non-binary (I don't feel the term is appropriate for my experience), I am so happy to see these people owning the term and rocking their authenticity. TBH I would love to sit down and grab tea with all of these people, just to learn more about their stories.

What does "feeling female" feel like? What is not “subscribing to any sort of binary”?

@@xz740 You see, this what I don't understand about the way you think. Can you really not comprehend what Gender Dysphoria is? 'Cause we'll try to explain it to you politely and with patience. Gender Dysphoria is not a fad. It's not sexist gender stereotypes that we're trying to cure by changing our bodies. You are comfortable in your own skin, yes? Course, you might have insecurities about how you look or how you act, but that body feels YOURS, right? With all the flaws in your life, it's still you? Yeah. That's the problem with gender dysphoria. It's like regular body dysphoria, but specifically about the physical and social aspects of being your birth sex. Your body... doesn't feel like it belongs to you. So if a person was born female, they would not feel like themselves being seen as a woman or be comfortable with their sex characteristics. Those breasts would feel alien. It's disturbing and upsetting, to say the least. So you can understand why someone would want to surgically change their bodies to find relief from that almost constant feeling of not fitting right under your skin. Therapy should not focus on trying to cure you of "thinking you're the opposite sex". No, they've tried that and it has never truly worked. We go to therapy to sort out our worries, complex feelings, and traumas related to being trans and nonbinary. And also the insecurities of not being able to pass without subscribing to the sexist gender norms should often get worked through but not always. So yeah.

@@sagehoff969 Did you read my post? Where does it say that I think "gender dysphoria is a fad"? Gender dysphoria is a medical condition associated with depression and anxiety and requires medical treatment. What is a fad is people coming along and seeing how popular it is to call oneself a so- called different gender as part of popular culture. This is evident by the terms people use such as “I identitfy as” such and such. Identifying as an entity is not being that entity. People with gender dyphoria experience themselves inherently as having gender issues not merely “ identifying” as something.

This definitely gave me some amazing warm and comforting feelings, thank you so much ash just for putting out so much positivity and love into the world. The quote “I knew but didn’t have language” is exactly how I feel about being genderqueer. It was truly like finding a piece to the puzzle like they said. I have felt pretty alone and just all around invalid about my identity because I am comfortable with a myriad of pronouns but I suppose that is internalization I will continue to work through! This video gave me immense peace and validation. Thank you to everyone being so loving and supportive of each other in the comment section as well, hope you all have a lovely day!

This is probably gunna be a long comment but here I go lol. Ash, and everyone else thanks for this video. I rlly appreciate it. I'm about halfway through and I actually started tearing up. For years I've always felt so alone and like a freak. There were times I wanted to end my life. Not because of being trans but also because of being transgender nonbinary. I hated being nonbinary. I wished I could be a trans guy because in some ways transitioning can be more straightforward. Nonbinary it's tricky because u don't want to be seen as completely male or female. But, maybe u just want a little bit of each gender, ect. It varies. I'm 22 years old but seeing these older ppl rlly makes me emotional. Especially an actual gender therapist being visible as nonbinary. Screw these toxic ppl who spread hate or talk crap about u. You're an amazing human being and cover a lot of good topics in your videos. You're good at explaining too. Thanks for all u so, Ash. Keep being amazing. 😁🤗

I am 44 and I am nonbinary. First time ever saying this, but always knew this. Ash and guest, thanks for this, I have been so scared to my authentic self and I have felt this is a young movement and I dont have the courage to step up and say this is who I am, but seeing this fellow nonbinary friends I feel stronger to step up and be free.

Ash, Thank You SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Much for putting in all of the work to edit this together. I know how much work video editing is. It takes a lot of time, patience, and energy. Thank you for that. And thank you so much for reaching out to the wonderful humans. Several of them are some of my favorite people! The rest were new people to me and were great to hear from. And thank you to everyone who participated. I cannot find the words to really explain how much I truly and deeply appreciate this video. It is so validating. And it helps me feel less alone in this. Today has been such a rough day, after such a difficult and overwhelming week. I've been dissociating a lot and really feeling down. I finally had a new treatment option get offered to me for a hormonal issue I have been dealing with for years, that drastically affects my mental health. So I had this great hope, and then my insurance denied the claim and I don't have $500 to pay for it out of pocket. So I've been feeling really down and had a bad trigger in therapy. It's just been rough. So this was such a breath of fresh air and has me crying grateful tears because it has been such a difficult journey with this non-binary stuff and always feeling out of place. It was really nice to have all of these voices in one place and to not feel alone. Thank you

Just figuring out I'm nb in my mid30s and this video helped me feel less mad at myself for how long it took me to figure it out; I had access to current LBGTQ language and words as a developing young person, but these weren't words in my world. This video gave a whole other layer of permission that I so appreciated. 💜💜

Thank you so much for making this. I'm a (very) late 40s non-binary person, who, like many of the people in this video, always kind of knew, but only discovered the words a few years ago. It's hard sometimes when you tell someone you're NB, and the response is "isn't that just some trend the kids are doing?" It's so affirming to see so many older NB people, both in your video and in the comments, and know we really are everywhere, it's just we weren't talked about before.
