A quotation from Bill Watterson

CALVIN: This whole Santa Claus thing just doesn’t make sense. Why all the secrecy? Why all the mystery? If the guy exists, why doesn’t he ever show himself and prove it? And if he doesn’t exist, what’s the meaning of all this?
HOBBES: I dunno … isn’t this a religious holiday?
CALVIN: Yeah, but actually, I’ve got the same questions about God.

Bill Watterson (b. 1958) American cartoonist
Calvin and Hobbes (1987-12-21)

A reminder for anyone questioning their gender, especially with questions like: "Am I trans?" or "Am I non-binary?":

Focus on what you would like to do, then work out the label(s) later :TransHeart: :NonBinaryHeart:

You don't need to have it all figured out up front, and it's okay for your concept of self and goals to evolve over time.

Terms like trans, non-binary, agender etc. are all descriptive: NOT prescriptive.

A screenshot of a Tumbr post. Text reads: unknought reminder that if you're questioning your gender, "what do I want?" and "what will make me happy?" tend to be much more useful questions than "what am I, really?" #in a world divided by gender

If you want to call yourself nonbinary, you can.

It's alright if you're not sure how or what the specifics may be. Claim it, if the term feels right.
