If you think "exploding the binary" necessarily means 'obliterate all current positions, render them impossible and meaningless', I think you might have misread*. To me, it has always seemed a mathematical explosion of possibilities, a multi-dimensional expansion, not a reduction. I would not deny anyone a sense of self that currently fits within the wo/man system, *unless* a fundamental aspect of that identity is that everyone everywhere must adhere to it, too. If your identity is based on the limiting of the self-definitional identities of others, you and I are probably going to be enemies. Otherwise, it's live, marvel, appreciate, enjoy, and let live.
*But if you first encountered that phrase where I did, it's almost understandable; it was badly written, and hard to get past the masturbatory self-aggrandizing to get at meaning.
