After watching the video, Im now educated more on gender. I didn’t know that different gender identities have existed throughout history. What I do admire about my generation is these identities are being brought to light and more people are becoming accepting of it. As Alok mentions, going against the gender binary norm doesn’t mean getting rid of women and man. Many people have a misinterpretation by this movement and may even feel threatened by it. I’ve had peers say that they don’t like how other genders are trying to erase the traditional two. This has always angered me, being that other identities are focused on trying to become equally accepted with women and men, not go against them. Society will have non binary people regardless if it’s accepted or not. The problem is, not accepting them brings them to a disadvantage. the way they’re treated, lack of respect, and lack of opportunities. Something I admired about Alok is he loves himself unapologetically. He understands that being non binary is something much bigger than himself. As a cisgender, being an advocate for non binary people is significant in moving forward. The lack of our support stunts the movement. As women, we should not be subjected to being feminine and men should not be subjected to being masculine. Children are being frowned upon for doing activities, such as ballet dancing or basketball. We are keeping them from freely expressing themselves because of societys take on how two genders should act. With the different identities created throughout the years, it is no longer logical to put humans in two specific categories.
