Our Identity is real

and it exists.

(Non-Binary Stories)

My name is Cami, I am 22 years old,
I am non-binary,

and i'm here 
to explain non-binary to you.

Non-binary, 
is an umbrella term

which includes
all gender identities

that are neither
exclusively male

or exclusively female.

It can be agender, 
the "a" meaning a subtraction

of gender or gender neutrality

or it can include
all fluid identities.

Like if we imagine gender
as a spectrum with two poles,

male and female.

You can have a moving cursor

that includes all people
who are gender fluid,

demi-gender, pangender, etc.

I've never really identified
with femininity.

At 18 years old, I already started

to ask questions

on my gender identity,

and I met a trans man

With whom I'd been with for a while,

and together we were able define
my identity

which was non-binary.

I think it was due to him

having way more 
information than me

that helped me find the words 
to explain my identity.

Gender identity is about who you are,

the gender we feel,

that we live in, 
that we experience,

and gender expression,
is what we show to others.

It's how we express this our identity.

It's possible to have a gender identity,

that's for example, male,

you are a man,

and then have a gender expression

that is feminine
with many markers

society considers feminine.

Like for example,
Bilal Hassan, is a man

with a feminine gender expression.
