Even if you don't understand, you can always support us and be with us.
Our identity is real and it exists.
My name is Camille, I'm 22 years old.
I'm non-binary and I'm here to talk to you about nonbinarity.
Nonbinarity is an umbrella term that includes all the gender identities
that are neither completely masculine nor completely feminine.
So that can be "ungendered" or without gender which is neutral,
or it can be all the gender fluid identities, including all the people
who are gender fluid, demigendered, pangendered, etc.
If you imagine gender as a spectrum with two poles - masculine and feminine -
and a cursor that can move between them, it would include everyone
who is gender fluid, demi-gender, pangender and so on.
I never really identified with femininity and when I was 18,
I'd aleady started to ask myself questions about my gender identity.
I met a trans man I was with for awhile and together, we could find the words
for my identity, which was non-binary. And because he knew more about it than I did,
he was able to help me find the words for my gender identity.
