I never fully get these posts but I think that’s why I like them so much
Sock is a stereotypical name for enbies, in the same way Chad is a stereotypical name for boys. Nonbinary people being autistic is A Thing. Autistic people tend to struggle with executive dysfunction, which makes doing chores hard. Allistic people are often naturally good at manipulating or guilt tripping autistic people.
Sock is an autistic enby who no wanna do dishes and blames their roommate's neurotypical privilege for being able to guilt trip Sock into doing them.
I don't know anything about Portland.
Why would anyone write "enby" when nb is shorter and whose meaning can much more easily be guessed at by people like me wondering what it means...?
nb is already used to mean "non-black". The phonetic spelling "enby" is used to prevent any confusion
That makes sense and is the answer I sought :) thank you kind stranger
