    Demi Lovato has come out as Non-Binary and changed their pronouns to they/them.

    Just thought I’d bring some recent LGBT news to EC:blush:

    If she has genuinely discovered her true identity, then good luck to her. But knowing celebrities, I expect that it's really just all about the publicity.

    It's disrespectful to say that. First, you're not respecting their pronouns. Second, the LGBTIA+ community doesn't invalidate its own members. Instead, it would be nice to support Demi for being true to themselves or not make remarks like that.
    Them being a celebrity also brings some representation for trans and non-binary people in the public eye.

    I'm happy that they came out!

    I fixed what you said a bit. Because, sadly, way too many even in the LGBT+ community are big on invalidating some people. I heartily agree with the rest of what you said.

    Non binary? Is that a machine language that uses 2? But srsly. Non binary is a creation of left wing gender studies which is not scientifically supported.

    @Bi Wolf.....I tend to respect what someone says they are in relation to their sexuality. I think that they are the only ones who have the right to use a particular label or if they so choose, no label. I respect your opinion that; "Non binary is a creation of left wing gender studies which is not scientifically supported." while I disagree with it. I would hope that you could also respect Demi Lovato's choice of Non-Binary whether you agree with it or not. You have a right to your opinion just as she has a right to hers but Empty Closets is a place where we try our best to accept people as they are and help them in any way that we can.
