Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you can always support and assist us.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Our identities remain legitimate
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and it exists.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,My name is Cami, I'm 22 years old,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I'm nin-binary
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and I'm here to talk about my identity
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,'Non-binary' is an umbrella term
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that includes all the identities that are
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,neither exclusively masculine nor feminine
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,That could be agender, with "a" meaning
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,a subtraction without gender.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Which is neutral. Or it can be all
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the fluid identities, as we imagine gender
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,as a spectrum with two poles, masculine
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and feminine. And there is a cursor
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,which moves. So people who are
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,genderfluid, demigender, pangender, etc.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I never really identified with femininity.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,At 18, I started to ask myself questions
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,on my gender identity and I met
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,a trans man, who I was with for awhile
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and we finally put together some words
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,for my identity, so 'non-binary'.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I think it's because he had more info
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,than me. He helped me find the words for
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,my identity. Gender identity is what
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,we are. It's the gender we feel, our
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,lives, and what we experiment with.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and gender expression is what we present
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to others. It's the way we express
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that identity. You could have a gender
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,identity, for example, that's masculine
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,so a man, and you can have a gender
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,expression that is feminine, with markers
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,considered as feminine in society.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Like for example, Bilal Hassani, he is
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,a man with a feminine gender expression.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I told my parents that I was non binary
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and that I wanted to change my name also.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I was 20, so two years ago
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and my mom took it quite well.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,She was already up to date with questions
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,about gender. She deconstructed them
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and it was safe, I felt secure.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,For my dad, it was a little bit delicate.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I took more time to talk to him
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and I didn't do it in person. I actually
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,sent him a message, as it was easier
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,for me to manage. And he took it well.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,He said he didn't understand it all,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but he would support me regardless
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and that it wouldn't change anything
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,for him, he loved me the same.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,For my grandma, it was less clear,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it's something unfamiliar for her.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,She grew up in the countryside. Then
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,she came to Paris. She lived with
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,my grandpas for 50 years.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,She lived in very cis heteronormative
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,contexts, where she never asked questions
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,on her identity or of others.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So when I talked to her about it, she
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,was caught off guard, but she always
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,tried her best to behave in the best way
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,she can with me. She's make a lot
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of effort, she doesn't make anymore
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,mistakes with saying my name now.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I made an application to chance my name
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,in 2019, I submitted the application to
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the city where I was living in. I obtained
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,a file that I filled with witnesses from
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,my close friends, to show that they use
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the name Cami to refer to me. I asked
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,my school to write a letter of support.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Then, I submitted my file and waited a
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,few months. The time span varies according
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to cities. And then I got my name change
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,accepted.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The fact of wrongly gendering someone
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is to address that person while using
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the wrong pronouns. So using gendered
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,pronouns for a non-binary person who had
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,explicitly said to use neutral pronouns
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,like "them" and to gender them using
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,feminine or masculine pronouns.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Personally, I use pronouns referred to
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,as "feminine" when speaking and neutral
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,in writing. But, in general, I have the
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,tendency to say right away that I prefer
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to use feminine pronouns for speaking.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,After, if a person doesn't do that
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,for themselves, and you want to be sure
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you are correctly gendering them,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you can ask them for their pronouns
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,or wait until the person refers to
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,themselves to follow their suit.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,In the videos that I've done previously
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,There was a lot of comments
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,which invalidated our identities
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and denied our gender expressions
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and identity. I personally don't read many
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of those comment since I know they are
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,mostly malicious or ill-intentioned
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and just want to cause pain.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I already participated in a report
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,where we could hear that it's just
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,a trend which came up a few years ago
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,in the US, around 10 years ago.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that it had a connection to fashion also,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and unisex fashion, etc.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,That is completely false, I think that
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it's also a very white perspective
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and very Eurocentric.
