Ilana Glazer explains how their pregnancy journey helped them realize they’re non-binary

Ilana Glazer got candid about their sexuality, explaining how being pregnant with their daughter helped them realize they’re non-binary.

The “Babes” star, who uses they/she pronouns, told the Independent, “Being pregnant on paper was the most female thing I could ever do, but it actually highlighted both the masculine and feminine inside of me.”

“For so long, my masculinity felt like something I had to hide or make a joke of, and my femininity was something that felt like drag,” they continued.

Glazer, 37, explained there has always been an “element of comedy” to their sexuality, which limited their “genuine personal expereince.”

“Then this gift of being pregnant made space for me to be real with myself,” they added.

When asked if identifying as non-binary changed thier everyday life, Glazer responded, “It’s more a point in the process of a long journey of self-actualisation. I’m moving through the world in a way that’s truer.”

Earlier this year, the “Broad City” star first addressed their sexuality, describing it as a “cool and hot” part of themselves during an interview with USA Today.

Glazer — who welcomed their daughter with husband, David Rooklin, in 2021 — also learned pregnancy makes them “full-on horny.”

“I was so sick when I was pregnant for the first six months,” they told Page Six in May at the premiere of “Babes.”

The comedian continued, “and sometimes sex would be the only context in which I wasn’t sick. Women tend to be horny through context, like dinner and candles, which is lit, but the spontaneous, animalistic horniness of pregnancy is nuts!”

Glazer and Rooklin secretly tied the knot in February 2017.

While the couple keep their romance under wraps, the mom of one told Harpers Bazaar in June that their “grateful” to have decided “to have a kid” with Rooklin.
