Nonbinary in a Binary World
- You are sought out as a leader in your industry, company, but have you human goodness?
- How many people in the tech industry, how many are women, how many are members of LGBT+, who many are nonbinary?
Story
I just recently come out as nonbinary. Imagine being in a marriage for the past 30 years and then finally realizing you’ve stayed with it only because society has been telling you to... every single day. From which bathroom you use, your pronouns, how family members and your partner refer to you, even down to how you are supposed to dress and act.
Now that you are divorced, imagine trying to get people to start referring to you as Miss and your maiden name... usually no one blinks an eye and really tried to make this happen since they understand that you don’t want to think of that past every time someone is referring to you.
