Why or why not?

If so, would it depend on how they present or their assigned gender at birtb or something else?

    They wouldn’t really be non-binary if they’ve undergone gender affirming care.

      Point of order - non-binary people sometimes medically transition. We might not choose all the options to swap to a full binary presentation but target things which cause us duress.

      Non-binary is under the trans umbrella though not every Non-binary person identifies as trans. There are political enbies or people who see their ambivalence towards gender and sex characteristics entirely as being an expression of a Non-binary experience while others experience the same euphoria/dysphoria to their natal sex characteristics that binary trans people do but desire more of an absence of all sex characteristics or a mix of male and female phenotypic traits.

      Your statement in effect only describes a fraction of Non-binary people.

      They could be. Transitioning doesnt stop them from choosing to identify with a non-binary gender.

      Are you thinking of intersex? Even in that scenario, I don’t believe that statement applies.

        Then no, I wouldn’t be with them if they’ve transitioned. That’s part of the “keeping the parts I’m attracted to”.
