NYTimes posts an article about Tumblr "nonbinary, genderfluid" people. The comments section call them spoiled, rich and coddled special snowflakes who have too much free time making up neologisms.

Some gems:

"It's silly and clueless to complain about organizations that are crowded with those boring gay guys. Umm, maybe they're there to find boyfriends, not to do interpretive dances about nonbinary sexuality."

"My generation (at least the economically privileged among us, like the young people in this article) is so full of boundless self-confidence and self-absorbtion that re-writing gender norms and coining neologisms on social media (and then adopting these fad terms as central to our very identity!) seems like a free-time activity in between unpaid internships and saving the planet. "

"Well, aren't they some precious snowflakes! For people who hate being put in restrictive boxes, these kids sure have a strong desire to be put in...boxes. I honestly think this whole "I am so unique! Look, I even created my own descriptor: Nerd Fighter!" is so generational"
