Why Is Taylor Referred To As They Or Them Etc On Billions?

[ToraToraTora]

Sounds ridiculous, she is a single person surely.

[Baldric]

Who?

Ditto ..

It seems they are a character on Billions Tv show. Thi may explain it :


"Recently cast in the role of Taylor, a non-binary gender identifying character in Showtime's BILLIONS, Dillon is the first non-binary gender identifying actor to ever be cast in a major television series."

Avoids the he/she dilemma?

[Baldric]

Thanks FF, but I will hold my hands up to losing the will to live after reading that :o(

Not a series I have watched, looks interesting.

if you don't know then you don't watch the show so don't try and answer.

[ToraToraTora]

balders why have you even commented then? never had you down as a troll.

[fiction-factory]

So you may not want to read this then Baldric which gives more info on 'them'. (Would they be offended by 'it', I wonder).

FF W\\TF is non binary gender? sounds like schizophrenia to me!

[hereIam]

Do not tell me whether or not to answer a thread !

[Mamyalynne]

There's a link to 'Non Binary' on that Wiki page.

[ToraToraTora]

then stop being an idiot, if it means nothing to you then clearly it's not intended for you to comment.

[Baldric]

If someone posts an OP, the meaning of which is unclear, I or anyone else are entitled to ask Who? What? Why? etc, but to be fair it's not a lot different in clarity to a lot of your OP's

"balders why have you even commented then? never had you down as a troll."
clearly you dont read any of his posts then!

[ToraToraTora]

do I go around trolling soap opera threads? No because I know naff all about them. really it's very simple, in film and TV if you do not understand the question the chances are it's not intended for you, simples!

[ToraToraTora]

balders do you watch "Billions" - nope, thought not. Please ignore my posts if you find them too challenging for you. Ditto any one else with a similar affliction.

[Prudie]

I do watch the show (superb) and Taylor I believe has requested to be referred to a they in the show as in real life. To add spice to the spatting they are clearly female to me.

[fiction-factory]

TTT- this bit may help (or not) further your understanding of the non-binary aspect : "Dillon identifies as pansexual, stating they are attracted to multiple genders."

[Baldric]

Seem to have touched a raw nerve there ;o)

[ToraToraTora]

fair enough FF, I identify as Brad Pitt but the honeys ain't beating my door down. She's born a woman, you can't just make up nouns and call yourself "pansexual", gawd elp us.
