We understand feminine, masculine, the things in between, the nothingness, the parts of gender that are interdemensional...More importantly, we have some sense of what we don't know about gender, about the possibilities, better than you could imagine. Before you lecture a nonbinary person about gender, go grocery shopping as a gender you were not assigned at birth. Report back. You don't even have to use the bathroom. That will be next week's lesson.

Oof yes 🙌 One thing I love about Ayurveda is how the elements, and therefore doshas, are not specifically linked to gender. Tendencies and behaviors are inherently nonbinary — they’re elementally driven, not gender driven. One of the tantric principles as I was taught is that everything is meaningless until one assigns meaning. Our society is obsessed with assigning gender as meaning — and it is an equally valid choice to not assign that meaning at all. Thanks for the thought food today! 🌈❤️
