    That’s not what non binary means. A drag queen is someone who cross dresses for performative reasons and identifies as a woman during such performances. A transgender person is someone who transitioned from one gender assigned at birth to the other. Non binary means they don’t feel like they fit perfectly in neither man nor women, but something in between, or even something variable.

    Trans people can be non binary because NB is also a spectrum.

        I don’t understand the question. You are what you feel, that’s what gender is, or rather how you perceive it. It seems like you’re implying that what you feel isn’t real, but correct me if I’m wrong. I am cis man because I was assigned male at birth and I feel like I’m a man.

          I’m not trying to imply anything. I’ve just never had a feeling about my gender so I don’t really understand the concept. I was born a man, I present as a man, but I can’t say that I feel like a man, I just feel like me.
