5 perfect holiday gifts for your gender-independent loved ones
There’s nothing like a non-binary BFF to bust down stereotypes, forge new freedoms, and create space for everyone to be their authentic best.
Here are five great ways to show your appreciation for your friend who refuses to be pigeonholed.
1. All For One
Aren’t you tired of skincare and fragrance that’s categorized into his and hers? Us, too. Fortunately so is Calvin Klein. His CK All fragrance ($52) is for — you guessed it — everyone. If your pal likes citrus and green tea (and who doesn’t), they’ll love this clean, light fragrance.
2. Billie Club
Give your friend an emblem of everyone’s favorite new gender-defying genius. Billie Eilish, the 17-year-old sound sensation who’s pronounced gender an “ancient” concept, has cool urban merch like this Red Beanie with her signature logo ($20).
3. 50 Shades of Grey
Let’s face it: all nail color is nonbinary, but why not support a company who’s verbal about branding theirs as “unisex”? Context carries 17 glam shades ($15) with sexy names like “Breaking the Law” and “Unfaithful,” all of them vegan and free of nasty poisons. Our favorite might be the gunmetal grey “Destroyer,” as in destroyer of stereotypes, we presume.
4. The Singularity Is Near
We can’t resist this adorable long-sleeved tee from Laurelhach on Redbubble ($25.20) that comes with a built-in lesson about the singular “they,” just in case your friend has to deal with anyone who’s been asleep for the past few years.
5. On the Same Page
If your BFF’s got more material things than they can manage, help spread the love by giving a chunk of change in their name to a favorite LGBTQ nonprofit. We suggest a donation to GLAAD, or use GLAAD’s Resources page to find links to others.
