Bethany Meyers Shares Their Non-Binary Journey and Why Inclusivity Is So Damn Important
I grew up in small-town Missouri and was never exposed to any sort of queer lifestyle. I don’t think I even met a gay person—well, an openly gay person—until I moved to Chicago at age 20. Not only was I not exposed to that lifestyle, but I was also raised in a community that believed that it was really wrong, shameful, and just not ok.
Once, I remember asking a minister in the church: “I don’t understand. If you say that being queer is a choice, and it’s so horrible and shameful and you’re not welcome anymore—why would anyone choose this?” I couldn’t wrap my head around it. He said something along the lines of “people who are queer have fallen so deeply into sin, that it was their punishment from God.”
Then, at age 20, I was living in Chicago and for the first time, had feelings for a girl. I was at this New Year’s party and everyone was singling out who they’d kiss when the ball dropped; I was there with my really good girlfriend, who I really loved, and she kissed this guy… and I remember these intense feelings of jealousy. Those feelings really took me back for a second and made me feel scared. Because of how I was raised, I thought, “I don’t know why these feelings are here, let’s push those down.”
Throughout my early 20s, I think that I was really interested in women, but I didn’t know how to go about expressing that. So I often expressed it in ways that were not the healthiest, like going out and getting really drunk and hooking up with a girl in a more group setting just to kind of figure it out. I created these really strong relationships with girls that were friends… but then they’d start dating someone else and I would feel sad about it. I just wasn’t living in a place of honesty.
When I eventually moved to New York City at age 26, I decided to give it a real shot and went out on a proper date with a girl. So I went on Tinder and started going out on dates with girls. I even had a girlfriend. It felt like it finally made sense in this space.
If you follow me at all, you may be wondering where Nico plays into this. [Editor’s Note: Bethany is married to actor Nico Tortorella, who you may recognize from TV Land’s Younger and who also identifies as non-binary.] We met when I was 20, and have been in each other’s lives for 13 years now. Over those 13 years, we’ve had every iteration of a relationship that exists: monogamy, long-distance, open, even best friends and not sexual at all. What it comes down to is that there’s just so much love between us. Last year, we decided to get married; we both recognize our queer identities and the need to be with other people of the same or different sexes but decided to come together and create a relationship and family within our own home.
Shortly after that is when I started to identify as non-binary and use they/them pronouns. Although it might seem like it, non-binary is not a new phenomenon. It’s been around forever; there have always been people who don’t identify as male or female. But the word, the language, seeing it out there is something that’s starting to happen more and more. It’s becoming this mainstream word that we’re looking at and talking about, and the more that I started to look at that word and the definition and the meaning, the more I felt very strongly that it was describing me; that is who I am. And since I started using that word, I feel like it’s created a lot of freedom for me.
