elierlick: This is revolutionary y’all. I remember being 13 and refused to go do any ceremony because my parents tried to force me to go through a bar mitzvah. By virtue of the masculine name alone I just couldn’t do it. After that, I felt very alienated from the Jewish community. Having this option is so important for us to repair these binary aspects of our culture (link) This is pretty sweet, but just a heads up: “Bney” isn’t gender neutral, it’s plural masculine.We actually do have nonbinary forms in Hebrew used specifically by nonbinary trans people (here in Israel/Occupied Palestine). In speech, we alternate between ‘masculine’ and ‘feminine’ forms, and in writing, we use both forms’ suffixes separated by dots. -- source link
