When folk come up with these new terms for concepts that have always been a thing why do they create words that are such mouthfuls?
Girls, one syllable. Boys, one syllable. Non-binaries, four syllables.
No wonder folk always revert to the shorter words, human beings don't like change and are lazy when it comes to language so you have to appeal to that laziness. Non-binaries should come up with a one syllable word that also fully encapsulates the meaning of being non binary.

I'd think up a word myself but I'm far too lazy
