"I don’t think it necessarily causes me dysphoria to be honest. The reason I don’t feel dysphoria due to menstruation alone is that it’s impossible to say that we all have “default bodies.” I feel like people want to be able to say “Nonbinary people have xyz genitalia,” or that they all look a certain way. They want to discuss us the way they always have, using binary genders and make us into a one-size-fits-all third option instead of a full spectrum. For this reason I don’t experience dysphoria when it comes to menstruation. I know my body is my own and that it is non-binary in its own way, not anything else."
I can imagine a woman on the stand at her divorce and child custody trial, saying this with those crazy wide eyes staring at the Judge, the Judge making a face like he's smelling a fart.

??
I do feel as though I, nonbinary trans people and trans men as a whole, face exclusion from such topics. People often refer to “women’s” bodies when discussing menstruation and reproductive rights, yet these are issues that I deal with and I am not a woman. It makes me feel invalid, and those discussions alone provoke my dysphoria. Hearing these topics spoken about in terms of “women’s issues” associates me with being a woman when I am not.
Sapphire: Yes, I feel excluded, because the discourse is still highly cissexist and binary. I am read as a cis woman even though I am agender, and I wish they could expand their horizons to include women-aligned nonbinary individuals like myself.

"Cis women are the majority when it comes to the demographic affected by this much-maligned shedding of uterine lining."
Of those who menstruate, 99.9995% (or whatever) are ciswomen. As far as linguistic categories go, that's pretty fucking good.
