ok this is Very Niche crosssection wise but arthur lester has the same vibes as steven grant but to the left

Okay because neopronouns and xenogenders are so fucking cool. Honest to god I think they're the best shot we have right now at gender abolitionism. Not terf gender abolitionism, but real gender abolitionism. Where we can decenter gender and its constructs as the most important basis for identity and like actually identify with things that are meaningful to us and give a sense of personal fulfillment.

I want you to look me in the eyes and tell me that a teenage gamer boy thinks being a boy is more pivotal to his identity than being a gamer. Obviously being a gamer is more important to him! Now, if someone took away from him the fact that he was a boy or attempted to undermine it, being a boy would become pretty fucking important to him. But hey, removing those external factors he might just identify as a gamer.

I feel like neopronouns and xenogenders are our transition (heh) state to that world. It reminds me so much of when they/them started to become popular on tumblr in like 2013 (i'm sure it was before then too, that's just when i got tumblr). Everyone flipped their collective fucking lid, cringe compilations were everywhere, and people cried the death of empiricism and western society. And now I get gendered as they/them, entirely unprompted, by cis people who don't know me.

So much of the criticism I've seen of these identities is that "they're just hobbies!", "that's just your special interest not your gender", or "that's just an aesthetic you like". and, YES!!!! That's the point! All of those things are equally as important to someone's identity and sense of self than arbitrary gender boxes we've made!

Gender abolitionism is a long term goal like any other anarchist principle. I personally like my gender, I like being called a man and referred to as he. Fuck anyone who says I can't. I'd also like for that to not have to be so important to me. I wish I could just be a writer, or someone who really likes the color green, or a gamer.

So what I'm trying to say is keep fucking with gender kids!! Make more of them, find pronouns that don't exist yet and use them with your friends. Have fun! Keep going! A better world will be made because of it.
