1)
if gender was a person
i’d hug them
say thank you for being so spacious
enough to wrap several arms in
enough to engulf
and drown
and breathe in
2)
if gender was a person
i’d make them dinner every night
and remind myself that feeding a complexity
is the same as filling my own mouth

In the autumn of 2020, we put out a callout for non binary people to answer some questions about their experience. From the many replies, we chose 10 people to respond to a set of questions in a way that made sense for them. These are the questions we asked...
What is your understanding of gender?
What has your journey been?
How does this identity intersect with other identities you hold?
Do you see yourself as an activist?
What challenges do you face as a non-binary person?
Do you feel your gender identity causes friction in your society?
