 | This is the sandbox page where you will draft your initial Wikipedia contribution.
If you're starting a new article, you can develop it here until it's ready to go live. If you're working on improvements to an existing article, copy only one section at a time of the article to this sandbox to work on, and be sure to use an edit summary linking to the article you copied from. Do not copy over the entire article. You can find additional instructions here. Remember to save your work regularly using the "Publish page" button. (It just means 'save'; it will still be in the sandbox.) You can add bold formatting to your additions to differentiate them from existing content. |

Article body
I've made a few minor additions to the content by linking some words and phrases to other existing Wikipedia pages - Alyssa (Man I love frogs)
Limitations and rejection
I would like to add subsections within this section! Below I provide a loose outline of what we could add to the article - Alyssa (Man I love frogs)
Degendering fashion
Earlier in this section the article describes social movements against the gender binary but doesn't go into specifics--I think this is a fairly well-known movement that is a prime example of people rejecting expectations of the gender binary.
A recent example in popular culture is Harry Style's Vogue cover shoot. A cisgender man wearing a dress (clothing coded as feminine) defies the gender norms set in place by the gender binary.
- We could also talk about how this was received by the public (i.e. praise and criticism he received for this).
Outside of popular culture, we can mention Alok Vaid-Menon, an nonbinary poet and activist that does a lot of work in degendering fashion.
