Women are superstars on stage, but still rarely get to write songs https://pudding.cool/2023/07/songwriters/

Only 118 of the 3,077 (3.8%) top 5 hits were written exclusively by women.

Songs like:

1. Running Up That Hill by Kate Bush, written by Kate Bush

2. All Too Well (Taylor's Version) by Taylor Swift, written by Liz Rose, Taylor Swift

3. Dance Monkey by Tones & I, written by Tones and I

4. Mine by Taylor Swift, written by Taylor Swift

5. Today Was A Fairytale by Taylor Swift, written by Taylor Swift

But who performed those 118 songs? Nearly all were performed by women.

You don't have to be consistently "feminine" or "masculine" in your appearance as a nonbinary person if you don't want to be. You don't have to engage with either at all.

Those categories are very subjective and flexible for us. Bend and mix them for your use. Invent something new.

Enough ink has been spilled on the oppressive nature of both capital and the state, but I think it's time to talk the oppressive nature of society. It naturally marginalises who don't fit its ideals, and supports oppressive constructs such as humanity and the #genderbinary. Weirdos should stick together as their existence is a direct threat to society. #voidpunk #anarchovoidpunk #anarchism #anarchy #puttingthepunkinvoidpunk

So is the #genderbinary #nonbinary

Honestly feel kinda bad for everyone still stuck in the #GenderBinary

Making a place for yourself as a nonbinary person in many of today's societies is difficult.

Jobs, family roles, even hobbies all tend to be gendered, which isn't very helpful for anyone and it's easy to get lost trying to navigate it.

Things might be messy now, but in time you will find your way.

Take your time in working out your life. There's no rush.

The conversation about removing #gender binary from couples #iceskating is happening in Canada. Same sex skaters were already the norm in in larger groups of ice skaters which did not capitalize on "romance" to sell their production. Why did it take this long to change couple skating? #genderbinary

Being nonbinary does not make you broken. In fact, it's quite the opposite. You have put yourself back together after the gender binary tried to break you apart.

You are far from "broken" in this. You have made yourself whole by discovering who you really are.

#nonbinary #nonbinarypositivity #genderbinary ..

Work out your priorities in life based on what you specifically need, not what you're supposed to want.

As a nonbinary person, you've already thrown out the gender binary. Might as well do away with the arbitrary social norms holding you back, too.

Hobbies don't have to be gendered.

Everyone should be able to enjoy their skills free from worries about the gender binary, including nonbinary people.

Pursue your interests!

#Wrote and scheduled two articles for my #Patreon today. I particularly enjoyed digging through photos for the most wildly gender divergent pictures of me to illustrate the one coming out on Jan 18th.

I post new #writing every week on topics ranging from #consent in #BDSM to the #psychology of #EroticFantasy, disrupting the #GenderBinary, #feminism in the #kink scene, & more. They're about 50/50 public and patrons only and you can join here for as little as $1/month!

Trying to accept my body bc it doesn't determine #gender. We all wish our bodies were more this or less that to some degree. I work so hard to let my gender shine through, I'm tired, and as I get older it's harder. And there's so much everywhere backing up the #genderBinary and being anti #trans. I expect the judgy person in the mirror also has more to work through. Just left feeling not this, not that and not allowed/accepted/seen as in between.

I'm not going to lie to you. I don't know if I had #genderdysphoria or something else imposed on me by society. I happily gravitated into being #genderfluid by adulthood, but didn't know what it meant, and I was ashamed of it because society wouldn't accept it.

Thanks to the latter generations who broke free from the #genderbinary, I learned to accept myself. Sadly, my youth was gone by then.

I'm not going to lie to you. I never suffered from #genderdysphoria. I never did. I naturally gravitated into being #genderfluid by the time I became an adult, but hid it out of shame and not knowing it was even possible.

I was the latter generations who were free to express themselves and broke free from the #genderbinary who taught me to accept myself. These are the ones I have to thank.

I'm currently reading a book called "Gender," which tries to describe what exactly gender is, how people learn gender roles, and why they follow them. It does a really good job of showing how people come to believe gender stereotypes that have no basis in any biological reality. It's one of the best pieces of media about #patriarchy and the #genderbinary I've ever read. I highly recommend it.

@Bridgemakes yeah, modren-day St. Paul, MN, USA is probably one of the least shitty places on this planet to present outside the #genderBinary.
