neither/nor
Someone wrote…
I don’t know what I am anymore. If I’m non-binary and unhappy with both my options, what do I do? One set of gendered pronouns bothers me more than another but either way, neither of them fit me.
How do I handle body dysphoria and social anxiety around gender when I’m neither/nor?
What’s your experience?

5. gender-neutral pronouns: they/them/theirs, ze/hir, your name, co, vi, vim, vir, etc.
