The book “Beyond the Gender Binary” talks about how gender binary is about cultural belief which is upheld by a system of power, and that when it comes to gender there’s more about it, he talks about how it is discrimination that some gender are afraid to go out because the way people will look at them or treat them which the problem is not about being men or women but they were society see us and judge us. We should be comfortable with whatever we are and just be ourselves. In the reading, he stated “The thing about being visibly gender non-conforming is that we are rarely. If ever, defended by other people in public. Everyone thinks that since we “made a choice” to “look like that” we are bringing it upon ourselves. The only reason people can fathom why we would look this way is because we want to draw attention to ourselves. They can’t even consider that maybe we look like this for ourselves, and not for other people. We are reduced to a spectacle. And when you are a spectacle, the harassment you experience becomes part of the show.” I believe it’s sad because I think that to each his own and people should be doing whatever makes them feel happy.
