Sometimes the more acronyms it takes to describe your gender the more clout you get
When it's a spectrum, boxes are just a reasonable grouping for social means. If you're in a group who has embraced the idea of gender theory, you may make those boxes more granular, but that can be a shock to people that, until fairly recently, had accepted a binary option. In those cases, it may make sense to speak in more broad terms. To be clear, this meme is disingenuous and probably more than a little crass.
