Asia Kate Dillon Quotes

As I started to explore my gender identity, I didn't know how I could claim the title of 'feminist' without subscribing to the gender binary. I thought I had to be a proud woman to be a feminist. Then I came to the realization that I can be proud of women without necessarily identifying as one.

We are on the forefront of a revolution in which identity and expression will take priority over the labels assigned to us at birth; in which self-identification will take priority over perception; in which gender will fall away entirely.

I'm non-binary, but I don't really talk about it that much.

For some people, pronouns are a very important part of how they identify. I completely understand that. For me, I have more of a looser interpretation.

I do say gender fluid, because I experience my gender identity as being fluid because it's on a spectrum.

My name is Rain Dove, and my pronouns are just a sound. You can use whatever you want.

I model as male, female, and everything in between. I model as all genders.

It's not about living my life as a boy or a girl - but I'm also not trans - it's just that one day, you wake up feeling masculine, and one day, you wake up feeling feminine. The flickering in between those two states is what's most fertile for me.

I always say I never felt 'latched' to a gender. I just kind of always felt like myself, and I never felt like I had to do certain things or be a certain way to fit into a certain mold.

Ever since I was little, I showed traits of both masculine and feminine energies. Androgyny was never something that I thought about or tried for.

Androgyny refers to a specific way of joining the 'masculine' and 'feminine' aspects of a single human being.

I was always into very androgynous things. Guys, girls... I'm into androgyny in general.

I believe gender is a spectrum, and I fall somewhere between Channing Tatum and Winnie the Pooh.

If gender is on a spectrum, where one finds oneself is completely unique.

I identify as a woman first, but I am also proudly trans.

I don't view myself as a 'trans actor' or a 'trans model.' I mean, I am - it's part of who I am - but it's not something that solely defines me.

'Actor' and 'actress' don't have to be gendered or sexed.

Trans women, trans men, AFAB - which is assigned female at birth - and non-binary performers, but especially trans women of color, have been doing drag for literal centuries and deserve to be equally represented and celebrated alongside cis men.

More and more - especially the younger generation - are functioning outside the binary concept of gender. That's just next-generation stuff.
