Even if you don't understand, you can 
always support us and be with us.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Our identity is real and it exists.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
My name is Camille, I'm 22 years old.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
I'm non-binary and I'm here to talk to 
you about nonbinarity.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Nonbinarity is an umbrella term that 
includes all the gender identities

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
that are neither completely masculine 
nor completely feminine.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
So that can be "ungendered" or without
gender which is neutral,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
or it can be all the gender fluid
identities, including all the people

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
who are gender fluid, demigendered, 
pangendered, etc.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
If you imagine gender as a spectrum 
with two poles - masculine and feminine -

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
and a cursor that can move between 
them, it would include everyone

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
who is gender fluid, demi-gender, 
pangender and so on.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
I never really identified with femininity
and when I was 18,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
I'd aleady started to ask myself 
questions about my gender identity.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
I met a trans man I was with for awhile 
and together, we could find the words

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
for my identity, which was non-binary. And
because he knew more about it than I did,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
he was able to help me find the words for
my gender identity.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
