Would you date a non-binary guy?

and before you write me off as some "keyboard SJW" think about this hypothetical:

A transfeminine but biologically male (who doesn't get caught up on labels but is just tryna live). They haven't altered their body in anyway but look "passable." They get assigned feminine pronouns, get treated like a "woman", etc. without any prompting from others. But maybe identity still or partially as male. This person could fit into a numerous amount of sub-labels (that become too bothersome after a point) but still moves through the world in specific way that isn't remotely tantamount to someone who's also biologically male but presents masculine and looks like a "man."

This ladder probably wouldn't be harassed/cat-called or subjected to physical or sexual violence on the street (they might but probably not) predators aren't conceptual they're not walking up to people asking "what's your name and pronoun choice" they're analyzing the physical. A transfeminine (or whatever person) may be subjected to the same if not more violence than a cis-woman. Also it asks us to separate man from masculine and woman from feminine. When a more marginalized groups experiences starts showing historic overlap with another or larger groups majority narrative is when a breakdown of boundaries surrounding identity happens.
