From Ena Sharples to Sunita Alahan
There was a time when the UK Soap “Coronation Street” was enjoyable. It portrayed working class life in a suburb of Manchester with a degree of gritty realism and humour. But the times they are changing and I stopped watching it around 1985.
It’s now got it’s own “non binary” person!
Coronation Street star Shobna Gulati has revealed that she now identifies as non-binary. The actor, who played Sunita Alahan in the ITV soap, said that she only recently realised there was a term to describe the feelings she had had all their life.
Speaking to Kaye Adams on her How to be 60 podcast Shobna, 58, explained: 'I've become more happy describing myself as a person. What do people call it now? Non binary. So, I suppose that's who I am.' The star, who now lists her preferred pronouns as 'she/they' on social media, continued:
'I've never had a word for it, but I've learnt from our younger generation what that might look like in terms of a word, because I know what it feels like in terms of being me. All the way through my life I've never had the words for that and I've never managed to explain that and I suppose my immediate family have not really thought about it.
I have a word for it. Mental illness. The worst bit is when the media plays along and uses the “they” pronoun to describe this confused woman. This is particularly unfortunate as it indulges the cognitive dissonance. I wish Ms Gulati well and of course we have to remember that she is a profession based entirely on dress up and make believe.

I want to thank the kind people who already do this, without your help this becomes impossible. Thank you in anticipation.
Just more celebrity psyops..
“Non-binary and genderqueer are umbrella terms for gender identities that are outside the male/female gender binary. Non-binary identities often fall under the transgender umbrella since non-binary people typically identify with a gender that is different from the sex assigned to them at birth, although some non-binary people do not consider themselves transgender.”
This definition is repeated all over the internet, and I’m still non the wiser. There you go, “non the wiser” - my new gender! My new pronouns are “twat/pillock”. I am hopeful that new career opportunities open up to me henceforth.
