I enjoyed it, and read it through. I didn't find the nonbinary/queer stuff relevant, but she did. It was part of her emotional reaction, and that was the apparent purpose of the article: to capture and evoke an emotional response. Clearly it missed you but it did so successfully for me. It was beautifully written and it made me feel a particular way, in sympathy with someone else who felt that way. I didn't have to share the author's world view for that to work, and I'm glad it was posted.

Your comment, on the other hand, feels mean-spirited and is far more dominated by the topic of gender and sexuality, in a wholly negative way, than the article was.
