There is a petition on the UK Parliament website to legally recognise nonbinary as a gender – which would include an X marker on UK passports for nonbinary people.
The deadline to sign is March 2026 and at the time of writing only 213 people have signed.
Let's show them the power of Mastodon. At 100,000 signatures, the petition will be debated in Parliament.

Don Lemon’s arrest involved a gay journalist & conservative church. That’s no coincidence. https://www.lgbtqnation.com/2026/02/don-lemons-involved-a-gay-journalist-conservative-church-thats-no-coincidence/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon #lgbtq #lgbt

Being open about my identity attracts some of the worst people. YouTube comments can be ugly, especially when discussing anything that does not pertain to cis white men.
Today, I dealt with a private message on Mastodon that forced me to learn the term "sealioning."
Wikipedia defines it as "a type of trolling or harassment that consists of pursuing people with relentless requests for evidence... while maintaining a pretense of civility... likened to a denial-of-service attack targeted at human beings."
It is bad faith exhaustion tactics. If you see it, do not engage.

Another type of troll I experienced today was the DARVO troll, which has a lot of overlap with Sea-Lioning. Darvo stands for: "Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender." While the point of sealioning is to drain your energy, what makes DARVO different is the goal is to flip the script to make you the bad guy for having a boundary.
When you set a boundary like "I do not want to debate this," continuing to reply is a form of trolling.
There is a wikipedia page for this one too:

Pride Marches are different to other community events. The history, the crowds on the side of the road, it all makes it special. To me it also means reaching a clear point where I am no longer ashamed of my identity, where I am proud of my journey. #Pride #LGBT #transpride #trans #transgender

@pmjv @mig Tvrzení "Láska vždycky končí zastrčením válce do otvoru. To všechno potom je už jen společensky naučené chování." a poté co upozorním že to není pravda, že lásku mohou mít i lesbičky, které válec nemají, tedy ho do otvoru zastrčit nemohou, a že takové prohlášení je dle mého názoru homofobní, tvrdit že "to je jiný druh lásky", to je podle mého názoru obzvlášť homofobní.
If you see an invitation to participate in a trans or genderqueer study sponsored by Northwestern University, steer clear. It's a rigged, unethical scheme to undermine access to care. Spread the word.
