Non-binary and Genderfluidity a Sign of Rising Consiousness?

[Jade]

I've met a lot of genderfluid/nonbinary people lately, actually. The primary point is to reject traditional gender roles, and also gender based language. One small thing being combated is the fact that we default to "he" instead of a gender neutral pronoun like "they". Being around these new friends has really affected my conscious use of language, which I find extremely valuable. A lot of people who consider themselves nonbinary do it as a support for those who legitimately have gender identity issues -often their partner(s), because a lot of nonbinary and genderfluid and transgender people that I know are in polyamorous relationships. But the fact is, it's about not identifying with either gender construct, really, and I think that's an important step that society needs to take and moved past. There are very few things within traditional gender roles that are actually positive manifestations of human experience, because it's about elevating one's gender above the other in a see-saw - men are good at this, women are good at this. It's extremely limiting. I think Jeremy is right that the backlash is about trying to maintain social order through traditional roles and constructs, and why it's perceived as something potentially dangerous like "hostile PC culture" when people are deliberately thwarting it. I've yet to see nonbinary/transgender people rallying in the streets with tiki torches and running cis-gendered people down with their cars, or shooting up Wal-Marts, so I find calling it a hostile culture to be a little bit of an hyperbole at this point in our society.

Ra also says that the fact that we live in such close, overpopulated cities that a lot of confusion occurs in the aura regarding sexuality. Those of us who see themselves clearly as one gender, and clearly are only attracted to one gender, have no idea the kind of confusion and shame that those who struggle with these ideas experience every single day, often starting as children. I have a basic understanding because I definitely never identified with being a "girl" from a very young age, and was often punished by my father for not filling traditional gender roles well into adulthood. I like what Aion said about it being about each spark of the Creator finding their own unique identity. It's a ripe paradox between unity with creation and establishment of our own individual spark - but this is why we are in third density, to play with all the paradoxes and learn about the subtle shades between the lines.
