Transgender is you still identifying by a gender and changing over to that other gender.

I'm not sure I agree.. many of my trans friends have said they didn't "change over" to the other gender, they were always that gender.

Non-Binary identifies OUTSIDE of genders, all and any.

Again, I think you missed the mark here.. nonbinary folks often do identify as a gender which is not part of the typical binary. I think you confused this for agender.

    Please consider sharing achievements of Seattle mayor Katie Wilson rather than sharing the negativity and hateful propaganda of her critics.

    Anytime you share a thing you hate online, you are doing free marketing for them.

    You could instead ignore it and counterbalance with hope, optimism and successes.

    How do you understand this take then?

    The definition of transgender is anyone who identifies with a gender other than the one they were assigned at birth. It is therefore an umbrella term that includes nonbinary genders.

    Every person I've ever met who participated in an "open relationship" became the target of profound jealousy, or became jealous themselves.

    I think it sounds appealing; 🌈my partner and I love each other but our hearts are too big to only enjoy one person's company🌈 then their partner sleeps with someone else and they get all shitty and bitter.

    My experience has always been "Are you sure your partner is ok with this?" --> "Yes definitely" --> The partner becomes a shitty rage machine. I had a guy corner me at dinner with my friends and yell in public because he was so jealous. He agreed to the open relationship. He was a hypocrite. All three of us suffered because he couldn't handle it. He should not have been in an open relationship.

    That was the worst one but I think it applies to most people. It's a pipe dream that they don't have the emotional maturity to actualize.

    This criticism would have been better spent on American conservatives, surely they're the bigger threat? Or even better, making positive net change. I'll never understand people who choose target the lesser evil ..
