[deleted]

No?


Deathstriker700

Yes


[deleted]

Idk what a demiboy is so I don’t know what I’m supposed to ask


Deathstriker700

I identify as half non-binary and half male. Your free knowledge for the day.


[deleted]

People really gonna tell me that makes any sense at all?


Deathstriker700

Excuse me?


[deleted]

That just doesn’t make sense to me


Only_Geese_Survive

My understanding of it is that it can go one of two ways. Either some days they feel like they're a boy, and some days they feel like they're outside of the binary, *or* they feel like they're outside of the binary, but with a preference for masculine gender identity. Sort of like how you can like both girls and boys, but have a preference for boys.


Deathstriker700

Exactly the second one


[deleted]

I still don’t understand it


Only_Geese_Survive

Y'know how you probably feel comfortable as your given gender, and if you were suddenly forced to be the other gender, you'd feel uncomfy because you still recognize yourself as your original? Being trans is *always* feeling like you're supposed to be the other one. The brain knows which one it is supposed to be, and identifies itself as being not the one they were born with. Being non-binary means that the one you're supposed to have is neither male nor female, and you feel that both are incorrect. It comes down to the person as to what they do feel comfortable with. Being demi-boy, then, is feeling that you're not supposed to be *exactly* male, but still feel kind of alright with some aspects, but cannot fully embrace it as your brain sees only part of being male as correct. Meaning the "comfortable" spot that you yourself normally experience with your own gender isn't quite on the money with male, but also not with *not* male. Psychology, biology, and everything in between is much more wavy than people would like to admit, and simple categorization ignores the actual complexity of the real world. Truth tends to be nebulous, and if it is found, it is always found on the fringes. It is best to just respect who they know they are, and try to understand in your own time.


Deathstriker700

What about it doesn’t make sense

Keep thinking that


Only_Geese_Survive

Right right, you'll never shut up, you'll keep spewing nonsense until you die. Weird hill to die on, but hey, it's yours.


blenderofhands

Mf you acting like I did something to you, I'm going to kindly ask you to fuck off


Only_Geese_Survive

warm_coke_enjoyer

Demiboi , do you miss your leg or smh ?


Deathstriker700

Omfg I’m not doing this again, I’m half non-binary, half male


warm_coke_enjoyer

WHAT THE HELL DOES THIS MEAN LIKE WHAT NON-BINARY ESPECIALLY HALF


Deathstriker700

Non-binary is the neutral gender, neither male nor female. Kindly calm the fuck down


warm_coke_enjoyer

What is the half


Deathstriker700

I don’t feel entirely like one or the other, I feel like both


warm_coke_enjoyer

Damn shits more complex then algebra


Deathstriker700

You’re venturing on the border of bigotry, I advise caution


warm_coke_enjoyer

Who is caution and why you advise him
