People can tell on a subconscious level. It's all in the mannerisms and cultural subtleties. "You didn't notice, but your brain did"

    There you go again, dismissing my opinion because a nonbinary person said it. I'm nonbinary and I have opinions, so they must be wrong. You don't even bother to invent a reason to disagree, you just dismiss me out of hand. I'm not even worth your time to invent an excuse to take me unseriously.

    No, I actually thought you were joking. I think people are pretty ordinary and can't telepathically tell that stuff in text. I bet you can't deduce my gender, orientation, race, hair color, and name. I assume this because I didn't tell you any of these things.

    I don't talk like a man, and I don't talk like a woman. People are only used to hearing men and women talk. That's the scope of their experience talking to human beings. Which means that I don't sound human. I sound like some kind of bizarre alien intelligence. It's scary for these people.

    Most people on lemmy, reddit, etc just assume you're a man until you say otherwise. It constantly happens to me, a woman.

    I hate to break it to you, but you sound just like every gendered person on the planet. No difference in the way you speak on here from men or women.
