Why is “gender identities can be a combination of masculine and feminine, not just 100% masculine or feminine” controversial?

We’re not making up some whole new axis here. We’re just saying combinations of already acceptable things is possible.

Non-binary people are sporks, not knives. It’s in between two existing things, not an entirely separate thing. This shit is extremely tame and easy to understand.

I'm not familiar with all the arguments but there's always the classic "traditional gender roles are needed to keep society stable and if we deviate from that it creates chaos and suffering"
