Who’s to say what it means to present as or behave like a certain gender? To what extent does one need to conform in order to be considered conforming? Why is anything gendered at all? Does the rejection of gender as a whole not fall under the same umbrella as non-binary?
All interesting questions … my comment you’re replying to was pretty shit, but you’re adding good depth.
I’d say that enby is a catch-all term, and rejecting gender altogether is (or can be/should be) included in that.
Given the context of how people in most western societies grow up, especially those of us who were punished for not following gender norms, it’s pretty easy to come up with a list of things which are considered typical, and where a threshold for being considered definitely of a binary gender would be for their society.
