I genuinely do not understand the vitriol people — even other enben — have for the terms trixic, toric, etc. Nobody is saying “you have to use these words because you are nonbinary and you can’t describe yourself any other way”. There is simply a good chunk of us who feel like terms such as “lesbian” and “gay” are too binarizing for us. It’s not going to kill you to learn the terms that enben are using to describe their relationships. It really just reads as incredibly exorsexist. How can you say you support nonbinary people while insisting they don’t make more inclusive terms for themselves when they feel it’s necessary? Have you ever considered that we might want to create our own space instead of having to carve ourselves one inside of binary labels?
