definitely needs some proofreading and can be quite repetitive. easy and current language with references to our community. i felt like truly listening to a friend

despite that, it is great on representing non-binary life: love and sexual life, family, friends and career. being non-binary through it all and recognising our value beyond our identity and the search for its validation.

wouldn't exactly recommend it to everyone. young non-binary folks, allies (still not being the right public, i consider non-binary people the target here) and non-binary people like me that needed to read someone say (and therefore validate) what i feel and went through.

the insights are basic, it really is just the sharing of a non-binary life. yet, i don't want to take the value it has solely from that also

This feels like it wasn't edited. It's riddled with missing words and sentences that don't make sense or are just clumsy.
