Demi Lovato gender journey isn’t over yet. The musician, who came out as non-binary in May, recently spoke about their experience exploring their gender and what the future looks like for them.
Demi Lovato says they can’t always identify as non-binary as they continue their gender journey
“Being non-binary, what that means is that I’m so much more than the binary of male and female. And that we are all so much more if we allow ourselves the ability to look within ourselves and challenge that binary that “I grew up living in,” Demi said while speaking at the 19th Rep Summit .
They later added, “At first I was very nervous about coming out as non-binary because I didn’t want people to think I wasn’t authentic. I just wanted people to see what coming out as non-binary meant for my healing process.”
Demi noted that they started questioning her gender as early as elementary school, but the whole gender journey lasts “forever.”
“There may be a time when I identify as trans, there may be a time when I identify as non-binary and gender nonconforming my whole life.
Or there may be a period of time when I get older that I identify as a woman,” Demi said.
While Demi doesn’t “know exactly what that looks like” for them, they do know that they are fully embracing how they currently identify.
“I have a feeling it will never go back to being one way or the other, but just, it’s about keeping it open and free and I’m a very fluid person, and that goes with how I express myself.
too,” Demi concluded.
