Much my work is focused on moving beyond binary categorizations, particularly the gender binary. The gender binary affects all people, because all people have gender identities and all people are constrained by the social constructs created and maintained by the gender binary. Those of us who exist outside of the gender binary experience a range of exclusionary and sometimes hostile actions on a daily basis. It’s time to shift the focus from individual “non-conformity” to structural oppression rooted in the gender binary and societal manifestations of binary thinking.
