This week reading was an interesting one, I identify myself with a few points that Alok Vaid Manon, the author of Beyond the Gender Binary, brought up. The reading focuses on the importance of being comfortable in your own skin and having both men and women live in a world where it is not just two genders but multiple and have people be comfortable enough to choose who they are. I really found it interesting that he added dialogue that for me stands for not just one-person talking but many people who have these thoughts without being educated. It threw me off a bit and confused me for a second because I have not read an informative book like this plus, I know a lot of people who think like that, I on the other hand did not really interact with that topic when brought up because it was not something I had knowledge of. The way he answers all the dialogue though is great since binary people want to talk about things they do not know since some do not really bother to interact with nonbinary and gender Non comforting people that lead to many lies circulating. One that stood out to me is “Why use the pronouns they when its plural? Its not grammatically, correct?” This made me think of the reading we had last week where it was stated that the gender pronouns one uses are aspects of gender identity and how people think about themselves. This stood out to me because I had not thought about the importance of these pronouns until very recently, this is how people identify themselves and should be respected because if not were only contributing to the problem of tolerating but not accepting them. This made me change my point of view instead of thinking for only what binary people think of women such as the feminism movement we should learn more to be able to help and prioritize comfort for everyone including non-binary, trans and gender non comforting people that society refuses to acknowledge.
