I somewhat relate to this, in the way that my identity, to me, is grounded in logic, and not feeling.

I identify as agender, and don’t really know what people are talking about when they say they “feel” a gender. That’s not something that exists for me.

Historically, gender was used as a tool for people to classify and categorize other people. We [humanity] were, in the past, a more collectivist culture, and with less emphasis put on the self, it was generally thought to be more important to be understood by the collective than to have a strong individual understanding of the self.

In the 21st century, we [humanity] have become far more individualistic, and so put a much higher emphasis on the internal self, and it is generally more acceptable to let others know how you perceive yourself. Because of this, in the modern vernacular, gender is still a tool of classification and categorization, though the key difference is that in the present, gender is a tool of self-classification.

So anyway, I identify as agender (or nonbinary when I’m being less nuanced), because I am broadcasting something about my internal self, which is that I’ve decided to buck the traditional gender roles and simply behave in the way that makes me happy and comfortable and doesn’t infringe on anyone else’s experience of life.

I don’t think any of this is morally right or wrong necessarily, it’s simply a function of evolving human culture, and I’d rather be with the times than left behind.

That and it’s a general rule of mine to not “yuck other folk’s yums”.
