My dad is non-binary
| And, idk. It's just been really cute and wholesome following them on their little self discovery journey.
I'm not surprised by it at all. They never really seemed, well, male or really anything else to me. So, it's been kind of a relief almost, and it makes me really happy to see them starting to really be themself. Especially after a bad marriage where they just stayed repressed and never took time to think for almost 20 years.
So, yeah!
| Your dad is kinda retarded
| If that helps them be happier and more comfortable with themselves, well, good for them
| >>812024
Mhm! They seem to be getting more comfortable and happier and that self discovery, which makes me happy :3
| They comfortable being called dad or would parent be better?
Reminds me of one trans girl I know who when she came out to her mom learned that he's actually her dad. Which is just a power move you can pull on your kid
| Good on them.
| >>812033
Yeah! They said they'd like me to still call them dad. Not sure if that's their personal preference or because they think it's easier or some, but that's what they told me to call them, so that's what I'll do unless they say otherwise.
Damn! That really is a power move. I love that!
>>812034
Mhm!
| Imagine thinkin gender is a feeling lol
| I don't even know wtf is this "non-binary", can somebody explain me this?
| I love the conga
| >>812057
Well, you can just search it up. But short explanation is someone who doesn't fit the category of male or female. In this case specifically someone who doesn't have any gender.
| >>812119
I thought this was some kind of mental illness. And people go to some specialist to fix this.
| >>812130
Nah, that's unscientific bullshit. I recommend a more fact-based approach to your searches in the future.
| >>812134
> that's unscientific bullshit
What precisely? That non-binary people exist or that it's some kind of illness?
| That's cool. He can call himself whatever he wants.
| >>812274 I thought you were trolling for emphasizing on "he"
Is them. They can call themself whatever they call
| >>812291
There was no emphasis. I said that by default because OP mentioned that the person was their father.
OP also didn't make any mention of preferred pronouns in the original post, so I wouldn't have thought to say "they" anyway.
| >>812298 well I mean, them/they is the pronoun for non-binary.
But it was my bad to think you were emphasizing. Also, I didn't meant it as a bad thing, I thought it was clever lol
| this post is fake and bait. every g/u/rl's dad leaves before they're born
| >>812298
Ah. I agree with the other g/u/rl that it seemed very emphasized and intentional. Might be because I'm used to people being toxic towards me and everyone I know who's not cis, which is why I was trying to ignore your comment and said >>812288
Glad to see you didn't mean anything by it though!
>>812303
Yeah, that's usually the case. At least if we're not talking the umbrella term, which we aren't.
I can understand their confusion. Especially if they only really read title.
| >>812304
Not true! Some leave later. Mine left after I was born. Actually only about half a year ago.
Though, they only live about 10-15 minutes away and I spend 5-6 days there from time to time.
| If they're nonbinary then shouldn't you call 'em as parent, not father?
| Nvm read that. Kinda weird
| Though I myself discriminate everything that's not female or at least trans girl. Sorry! Not sorry!
| What
| Cringe OP
| I bet you're a man
| Oh no...
Tf happened here?
| >>814235 The Nation of mouth-frickin g/u/rls attacked.
- Special Effects: All g/u/rls in this thread are now horny.
And all mouths are watering wet, expecting their lewd fate that is to be fricked.
| >>812303 I wouldn't say it *is*. I personally feel 'they' feels a bit distant, but I'm perfectly happy being called either 'he' or 'she'.
| >>814285
...my thoughts as well tbh.
There's no "standard" pronoun for nonbinary people, you either just ask or they don't mind either.
| >>814285 >>814289
Mhm! That's very true. It's the most common thing to go by for non-binary people who are, like, fully no gender. But not all of them. And all other variations of non-binary is different, and with no standard for any of it.
It's a very personal thing so to speak.
| Well, I could be wrong about this, but I find that the most polite thing to do is refer to someone as "them" when you don't know what their preferred pronouns are.
Asking is for sure the next step. :0
| >>814304
Of course! Regardless of if they're non-binary or not, doing so is a polite gesture. Not the most common one though.
| Yeah my father never felt male guys, totally healthy and normal.

| I kinda just feel like sharing because I think it's kinda wholesome.
So, my dad recently came out to me as non-binary. They'd never really thought about their gender (or lack thereof) much before, but due to me being very open about mine and talking to them about it a lot, it kinda got them thinking.
They told me that they never really felt "male", but never "female" either, and now that they've seen me be me and had more time to think due to living alone, they've discovered why.
