OMG. I’m an Enby?? WOW! Barmaid, you have shocked me out of my complacency and allowed me to become my true, real lived self. Now I will forevermore march into the world, head tilted, fists clenched, and launch myself into my new community of like minded souls. We just need a name.
I think that the preview button is a WordPress plugin. Probably a central WordPress upgrade wonked it, or something something, so it’s likely not anyone’s fault but WordPress. (I am not a WordPress expert–I WORK for a living.)
Alas, the cartoonist forgets that there may be DOZENS OF GENDERS, many of which we do not even have the capacity to recognize yet. Myself, I am a multi-sexual yet a-sexual Blue Furred Venusian Dragon whose true spiritual home is the acid clouds above the equator of lovely, lovely Venus.
Man, that sounds so much more important than “plump, unmarried, aging white suburban minor municipal bureaucrat typing inappropriate comments on my work desktop” doesn’t it?
One commenter there, possibly reacting to my assertion that LG&B are sexual orientations and have nothing to do with the purely gender identity-based letter salad that has parasitised them, has stated that LG&B, along with heterosexuality – which isn’t even included in any of it – are genders.
Yes, you read that right. Lesbianism, homosexuality, bisexuality and heterosexuality are genders.

That’s exactly it. Whatever business WordPress thinks it’s in, the business it is really in is fucking up people’s sites by constantly and without warning messing around with plugins and templates. I don’t know what the missing step is between that and PROFIT, but perhaps that’s why I’m not in big business.

Isn’t binary/non-binary itself binary?
The next Twitter argument I get into (which is due in about 14 seconds), I’m going to announce that I’m binary. I don’t know what it means any more than anyone else knows what non-binary means, but I don’t see that slowing me down.

How about Humanity?
Rojette.
I’ll take heterological for 100 shekels, Alex.

For !@#$’s sake. Bring back the preview button!
I didn’t remove it and I have no idea how to bring it back! Please don’t shout at me for it.

And the lynch mob assembles on the front lawn in 3….2….
Waiting for the ideologues to come up with “partially non-binary”.
Isn’t binary/non-binary itself binary?
Yes, that’s the joke. Moses’s “you’re either non-binary or you’re not” is the excellent pre-punchline joke.

I have replied. Politely. More-or-less.
EVERYTHING is perhaps a “gender”. My addictive predilection for high calorie ice cream is a gender.
