I don’t think it’s fully possible to embrace nonbinary people until you stop thinking of men as the opposite of women and of masculinity negative femininity and vice versa. Like. Honestly it was a ridiculous belief to begin with, we’re not an incredibly sexually dymorphic species to begin with and men and women (even cis men and women!) are far more similar than different. Until you stop thinking of men and women as inherent opposites you can never accept bigender people or people who combine masculinity and femininity or people who hold manhood in some ways and womanhood in others. And honestly it’s a kind of heteronomative viewpoint anyway

ppl will say “demisexual and demiromantic apply to literally everyone why is it a label” and then play smash or pass, see people on the street and comment to their friends how attractive they are, meet someone at a bar and ask them on a date, start talking to someone in the hopes that it will end up sexual/romantic one day

like bro. an actual lack of attraction until a serious connection has formed is not the same thing as wanting to get to know someone before you have sex or date them.

Nonbinary Categories

So some of these terms have caused me quite a bit of confusion in the past, but I think I’m starting to understand them. I’ve written out my own definitions of the words that may or may not be helpful, but please let me know if I’ve gotten anything wrong…

-

Nonbinary - Identifying as neither wholly and exclusively male 100% of the time, nor wholly and exclusively female 100% of the time; not adhering to the strict male-female gender binary.

All of the following terms are more specific subcategories for nonbinary gender identities.

Abinary - Someone whose gender is unrelated to/not influenced by either binary gender. (Unaligned/other-aligned enbies and genderless folks.)

Nontrinary - A more specific subset of nonbinary that describes anyone who does not identify as wholly and exclusively male 100% of the time, nor wholly and exclusively female 100% of the time, but who does not describe themselves as a “third” gender either; a rejection of the idea that gender is a trinity/nonbinarity is a separate category, as opposed to gender being on a spectrum. (Anyone who is not male, female, or “third” gender.)

Atrinary - Someone whose gender is unrelated to/not influenced by either binary gender, including “third” genders. (Primarily other-aligned enbies.)

Anonbinary - A more specific term for those who are so removed from the gender binary, that they do not define their gender in relation to it. (Not either/or/neither/both, but something else entirely and completely unrelated; mostly other-aligned enbies, including xenic alignments and some ethnogenders.)

Anontrinary - Practically the same as anonbinary, but also excludes unrelated “third” genders. (Anyone who’s gender is both removed from the binary, and not defined as being “tertiary” to male and female, like aliagenders and many aporagenders.)

These terms are pretty broad, and I doubt most of them are used very often, especially not as identities in their own rights (just useful categories). But I imagine some people may have a difficult time narrowing their gender down beyond “not male or female.” So, in that respect, they can come in handy for those who are unsure of their exact identity.

If you’re still confused, here are some examples of terms that would fall under each category (and some that would be excluded by its usage):

Nonbinary

Anyone who does not identify wholly and exclusively as either binary gender all the time

Excludes: Binary men & women

Abinary

Quoigender, maverique, mercuriuan, plutoian, stellarian, genderfree, gendervoid/genderless/nongendered, some aingenders, many xenogenders, many ethnogenders

Excludes: demiboy/demigirl, xoy/xirl, genderfaun/genderfae, ambonec, epicene

Nontrinary

Demi- boy/girl/nonbinary, xoy & xirl, genderfaun & genderfae, mercurian, stellarian, orientationgenders, many xenogenders, agender

Excludes: Binary men & women, “third” genders/aliagenders/non-specific aporagenders

Atrinary

Quoigender, maverique, some aingenders, many xenogenders, many ethnogenders, gendervoid/genderless/nongendered

Excludes: Demiboy/demigirl, xoy/xirl, genderfaun/genderfae, “third” genders/aliagenders/non-specific aporagenders

Anonbinary

Many xenogenders, some ethnogenders, some aingenders, gendervoid/genderless/nongendered

Excludes: binary genders, masc- or fem-spec or -aligned genders, genders defined in any way as being “neither” or “both” (in relation to the binary)

Anontrinary

Many xenogenders, some ethnogenders, some aingenders

Excludes: binary genders, masc- or fem-spec or -aligned genders, genders defined in any way as being “neither” or “both” (in relation to the binary), “third” genders/aliagenders/non-specific aporagenders

-

(Let me know if you can think of anymore examples for these, thanks!!🦋)

(Thanks to @lgbtqiarchive for helping me in defining trinary terminology!)

Note: I’ve also come across the terms negabinary and unbinary, but I’m still not 100% sure what they mean. Feel free to add onto this post if you’ve got any ideas.

Non-Binary people can do WHATEVER they want

This includes: 

Using whatever pronouns they like and changing them as often as they want. He on a tuesday and they on wednesday, ze on weekends, she on Christmas; we can do that if we really want or need to!

Using whatever labels for their orientation they like, whenever and however they see fit. If a non-binary person likes boys and thinks that makes them straight one day and then gay the next, that is allowed! 

Defining orientation at their own terms. If a non-binary person likes girls and other non-binary people, and thinks that makes them bisexual, you’re just going to have to deal with it! Non-binary people do not have to define labels in the same ways that binary people typically do. 

Dressing and presenting in whatever way they like to. Like their agab, the opposite of it, something in-between, whatever way they want. Even in a way that is unconventional or that might seem jarring to you. Honestly if you’re giving anyone a hard time about their hair and clothes and whatever than you’re just an ass 

Doing drag of ANY gender they want, regardless of what their agab is. They can be a King AND a Queen if they want, they’d be in drag presenting as a different gender either way! 

Using whatever flag or label for their gender they want! Even if it’s something reaaaaalllly specific or not very well-known. If someone’s not cis they’re not cis. Who other than themselves should care what they call it? As long you can get the point that they are not a woman or a man, and it’s not culturally appropriative, then stop worrying about their label!

Changing their gender label however often they want! 

Joining whatever spaces they see most fit for their gender, regardless of agab! This includes women’s spaces, men’s spaces, etc. If you’re gonna claim your space is accommodating to trans people, then really commit and make sure all non-binary people who want to be there feel welcome as well and not just binary trans people. 

And if any of this bothers you or strikes a nerve, then maybe ask yourself WHY are you so bothered? 

Maybe ask yourself whether you are compartmentalizing non-binary people into being either “man lite” or “woman lite” according to what makes you personally feel the most comfortable while disregarding our comfort and safety. 

Again, 

Non-Binary people can do WHATEVER they want. This is not negotiable.
