| {{quote|Even when I was a boy, I wanted to be as pretty and maternal as Pepper LaBeija. I didn’t know what non-binary was. And Pepper LaBeija didn’t say, “I'm a non-binary person.” She probably would have said “[[trans]]” — or whatever language was there. No, you were beyond gender. You were a parent. You were a figure. You were razor-bumps and red lip. You were all of it. I was like: ''I want to be like that.'' I didn't have language for it. And to imagine how she didn't have language for it either.<ref name="Schwartz">{{Cite web |title=An Interview with jayy dodd |last=Schwartz |first=Claire |work=Los Angeles Review of Books |date=27 July 2017 |access-date=15 May 2020 |url= https://lareviewofbooks.org/article/an-interview-with-jayy-dodd/ }}</ref>

| {{quote|Sometimes I believe my gender is the future. But I think I have to call it what it is, which is now. It's here. There are so many misdocumentations of non-binariness. Non-binary beings have been; but the language for us is limited. I feel like here and now are two resources I have to think about gender work — to locate it all as present, urgent. I can imagine futures for my gender, but I also don’t need to. I can hope things are different for gender in the world, but my gender is this. Is alive. Is black. Is here. Is now.<ref name="Schwartz" />}}

| {{quote|Until recently [[Gender non-conforming|gender non-conformity]] was only represented as white. Outside of the occasional [[drag]] queen, the only folks allowed to rupture gender were straight white men “expressing” themselves or white women trying to get ahead. Thankfully, we have rappers, writers, actors, [[activism|activists]] & more able to live their complete selves. Our families, culture, language is so flexible & resilient despite centuries of oppression. For a people who were never afforded the safeties of gender, we need to more ardently push back on the parameters. We need to see the needs of ALL Black people as urgent, we need to dislocate the ways limited privilege positions us against each other. We need to see each other as whole & living. We need to imagine ourselves more free.<ref name="GNCBlackness">{{Cite web |title=Gender Non Conformity as Peak Blackness |last=dodd. |first=jayy |work=Medium |date=28 November 2016 |access-date=15 May 2020 |url= https://medium.com/@deyblxk/gender-non-conformity-as-peak-blackness-7834a901dc1d}}</ref>}}
