       "gender is a spectrum!" is the "so what are you, like, a 40/60 bisexual? or like what's your breakdown" of gender modelsI'm not even saying there's anything wrong with either statement as, like, a rough breakdown of experience ("if gender is a spectrum between male and female, I'm like..."/"if someone who's equally attracted to men and women is a 50/50 bisexual, I'm like...") but both of them are much simpler than the territories they respectively map.

       like, how would I answer the "Are you, like, a 40/60 bisexual or what" question? that's just not enough flexibility. like you'd probably rate me as, like, a Kinsey 1 or 2, unless you've heard me talk about butch girls, in which case you'd be hard-pressed to rate me below Kinsey 5. Kinsey's scale did not have "bisexual as in, attracted to gay+ people" in mindsimilarly, if "gender is a spectrum" you'd have trouble capturing what I (a woman) have in common with effeminate gay+ men (cis or trans)

       I just don't think the answer is eithermore (numeric) axes" (e.g., the 'gender unicorn' or 'genderbread person', if anyone here remembers such things) ornovel conceptual schema (e.g., I saw on Tumblr awhile back the suggestion to use 'solar/lunar' as substitutes for 'masc-aligned/femme aligned', & the development from nonbinary people using celestial/inanimate reference points for THEIR gender to people using celestial/inanimate reference points to UNDERSTAND nonbinary gender is what I mean)

       and I wanna be REAL careful here: I don't care how you explain your own gender to yourself or to other people. that's not what I'm disagreeing with here. if you're stargender, that's fucking excellent. go off, quing!but if we zoom out, look at gender as a social system we want to understand, two common approaches to expanding beyond the binary are "we just need a bigger number/more numeric variables," or "we just need conceptual frames which are unconnected to the binary"I don't like either.

       like, if we want to see gender-in-society as connected, as having central principles which help us understand the whole, it is not necessary that those principles be binary... but the gender binary IS central to the process.the truths we come to understand about nonbinary genders SHOULD relate them with binary genders as part of a social system in connection, connections including suppression/oppression by binary gender frameworks.

       this is maybe the most jarring/abrasive/disorienting thing that I talk about on a regular basis. sorry in advanceI think faggotry is a nonbinary issue. that is, I think 'faggot' as it exists and functions in society is a nonbinary gender, which heterosexual ideology has had continuous need to explicitly acknowledge & reject from the binary for centuries (at least). it's a nebulous category around effeminacy, penetrative receptivity, & 'male' gayness.

       there are an infinite number of ways to fail to be gendered correctly, and only two correct ways to be gendered— both held tantalizingly overhead, just out of reach of anyone at all.

       Gonna abandon the conceit of this being some kind of official statement and just turn this into a thread of things that are gay:• redaction• obscurity• games which force players to guess what the rules are• prisoner's dilemma• passwords• scathing tact (thanks, @socialskeleton, for assisting in this research!)• needles in haystacks• overwhelming detail• trompe l'oeil• déjà connu• subconscious affinity• over-the-shoulder eye contact• mimickry• fragmentation & creation from fragments
