Singer Sam Smith, who has in the past come out as non-binary, has now opened up about how having body dysmorphia helped them understand their own body.
“I have always been non-binary, I have always felt the way I’ve felt, and just hearing other non-binary stories made me suddenly feel seen. As I started to address that, I started to address my gender and realised that I was holding myself to these ideals of how a man should look. I have girl’s thighs and I have girl breasts too. It started to awaken this conversation that had always been in the back of my mind,’ they said, of ‘coming out’ as non-binary in 2018,” Smith said, according to a dailymail.co.uk report.
In September, the singer urged everyone to refer to him as “they” and “them” instead of “he” and “him”.”Today is a good day so here goes. I’ve decided I am changing my pronouns to ‘they/them’ after a lifetime of being at war with my gender I’ve decided to embrace myself for who I am, inside and out,” Smith had tweet.
