Adrian D.E. AshPaw

Adrian D.E. AshPaw is one of the younger people on our list. She identifies primarily as a wolf but also as other types of animals. She started a media frenzy when she posted a video of herself running around the forest with a tail. She wrote on one of her Instagram posts, “I love feeling the cool earth under my hands and feet, the energy that radiates is something truly extraordinary.” She continued,”Not to mention the feeling you get when you have worked hard for something you really want. My parents see me come home almost everyday with mud on my hands and jeans.”

Religous Jewish Man Is Non-Binary & Trans-Masculine

We have another term for you: non-binary. These are people who don’t identify as male or female all of the time. There are infinite subsections like bi-gender, demi-girl, agender, and gender fluid. The person in this picture identifies as “non-binary, trans-masculine.” He is also Jewish. He stated, “Years ago when I came out I went to the wall [Western Wall in Jerusalem]. There are three sections – the male section, the female section and an ungendered section. Now I would probably go to the ungendered section, but it was my first time presenting as male in such a holy place and I went to the male section of the wall. It made me so happy to do that, to go to the part of the wall I wanted to. I was transitioning medically and spiritually and it was one of the most important moments of my life. Jewish online magazine reported on that and it sparked off online, I got really abusive messages. I thought, these people don’t know me, I don’t think anyone should be able to tell you who you are and how to live your life. Yourself is yourself, even in the religious community.”
