Non-binary and Genderfluidity a Sign of Rising Consiousness?

[rva_jeremy]

My theory on this is that, to the extent gender is a social construct, the society is becoming able to accommodate broader roles as we drive towards social memory. IMHO, one can view the conservative rejection of more fluid roles as a yellow ray impulse to maintain discipline and legibility of the society. By discipline, I mean the benefits (from the conservative point of view) of using gender conformity as an element of more general social conformity and obedience to constituted authority. By legibility, I mean to point out that a society composed of entirely unique expressions of gender--for example, the profusion of pronouns we're seeing--is more complex to reason about and understand at a glance.

The tricky thing about this is the yellow ray aspects of the gender revolution--by that I mean the extent to which people's journey of identity becomes aggregated into a yellow ray political bloc, which then becomes simply a reciprocal attempt to discipline society e.g. through some rather hostile forms of so-called "political correctness" culture.
