    • I have a swype keyboard that types enby faster than MNB (edit: and with less typos)

    • Enby is a word instead of an initialism and flows more naturally in conversation

    • Enby is a term in use by the enby community, and using it shows I know what I’m talking about

    • Enby is a more “cuddly” word that makes us sound more relatable than an initialism

    • People in the enby community say enby more often in casual conversation, and I wished to convey a casual tone

      Don’t forget “nb” is used to denote non-black, so out of respect and to avoid confusion, as well as for all the good reasons you’ve listed, “enby” is the preferred term.
