Survey Results: Nonbinary Identity

In a question regarding whether participants identify as nonbinary, the options given were

Yes, nonbinary describes my gender identity overall (388 participants, 26.29%)

Yes, nonbinary is one of the genders I identify with (556 participants, 37.67%)

No, but I don’t mind being referred to as such (275 participants, 18.63%)

No, and being referred to as such is misgendering (182 participants, 12.33%)

There was also an “other” option, where participants could write their answer if it did not fit one of the four given. These responses were divided into four additional categories.

Nonbinary is both my overall gender identity, and one of the genders I identify with (25 participants, 1.96%)

The nonbinary label is technically correct, but I prefer not to use it (23 participants, 1.56%)

Whether I use the nonbinary label depends on context (15 participants, 1.02%)

Other (12 participants, 0.81%)

These results were compared to data regarding whether participants identified as fully male and fully female, as one full binary gender, or as neither binary gender.

This analysis found that participants who were both male and female were significantly less likely than participants overall to identify as nonbinary, either as an overall identity or as a single gender (297 participants, 55.83% of participants who were both male and female, compared to 63.96% of total participants). They were also significantly more likely than participants overall to feel misgendered by the label “nonbinary” (94 participants, 17.67% of participants who were both male and female). 

Participants who were neither male nor female were significantly less likely than participants overall to feel misgendered by the label “nonbinary” (65 participants, 5.69% of participants who were neither male nor female). They were also significantly more likely than participants overall to identify as nonbinary, either as an overall identity or as a single gender (302 participants, 74.75% of participants who were neither male nor female, compared to 63.96% of total participants).

Abinary Ambinary Pride Flag

Amabinary/nymambinary/nymamby or ambiabinary/ambiabin (ambiaphorian/abinambinary or amaphorian/ambiaby/ambiaby) [apisambinary/ambiapsgender/ambips/ambiaps]: being ambinary and abinary/aphorian.

Ambinary: experiencing both binary genders.

Abinary/aphorian: experiencing a genderness that is completely unrelated to maleness, masculinity, femaleness, or femininity, and is nowhere in between those things.

This can be for any reason. Some examples include: genderfluid, pangender/omnigender, multigender/polygender, plurigender, varsex/intersex/altersex/aldernic, GNC/PNC, system member plurality/medianity, centrigender/circa-binary, "both neither", gendervast/gendercollector, cusper/evenic, cross-aligned/cronant-aligned, liaspec/mesospec exospec/abiaspec, bonusbinary...

I changed my legal sex to nonbinary but I don't really consider myself nonbinary anymore. Sure I have nonbinary genders, but not just them. I also feel non-binary degenders me in some way, though I'm demiagender.

How to feel? I also experience emotional dysregulation so it's also that. But I'm not fully wrong after all I guess? I read similar experiences on tumblr about yesbinary ppl.

I also saw jurixalt term on neopronouns and relate to it more than my identity. Actually I'm going in a cassflux phase idk

Honestly, I'm not sure what to tell you. Legal sex is a weird concept anyway, and I wish we didn't have it at all. Whether we have dozens of options or just two, we're going to eventually feel limited by it. It's nice to be able to choose more than M or F to put on one's I.D./license, but it really sucks when even changing it doesn't feel right. I'm sorry you have to deal with all that and I wish I knew how to help.

If your legal marker is something like X, maybe you can decide to define that for yourself? You can decide that X, for you, means demiagender rather than nonbinary. Maybe you see it as representative of your existence outside of both binary and nonbinary. I'm not sure how non-binary legal sex markers work though.

I hope things become a little less confusing for you. Maybe someone here has some advice to share? - 💙💚

Let me help you out: non-aptobinary includes binary experiences such as ambinary, bonusbinary, neobinary, binaryfluid, yesbinary, multibinary, demibinary… but also nonbinary.

But in the other hand, it opens the door and makes room to aptobinaryn't and dichotomyless things like anonaptobinary, anaptobinary/a-aptobinary, which I don't have definitions in mind but I understand by logic they technically exist.

You could say that the nonbinaryn't nonaptobinary identities are simply mimicked nonbinary identities. But many multigender, neogender and demigender ppl embrace their binary identity, if that makes sense.

[other asking about nonaptobinary]

I think I understand what you're getting at, though I will admit I'm very well versed in such categorisation language I suppose? I think I learned something new from this, so that's good.

[yverest-22]

if i'm being a girl I think i'm 1. but in my ming i'm 3. But if i'm being a boy, i might be rough office kitten

types of girls: 1. syrup that tastes so sweet but leaves a stickiness that won’t leave 2. docile dandelions that blow away and leave you forever 3. animal bones that crush under your jaw 4. home

[gay-otlc]

do you have a coining post for yesbinary? i saw it on your pronouns page and i really liked the term and flag but cant find them on here

It's a term I made up a while ago, and I designed a flag recently because I was bored. Never officially made a coining post.

[seabie]

being bigender is like nonbinary but actually yesbinary

[jacknolazme]

i wonder if the term nonbinary really applies to me when i identify as both the “binary” genders. am i bothbinary? yesbinary? allbinary? hmmmmmmmmmm......

Tliagender Pride Flag

Tliaspec/tmesospec (tliagender/tmesogender spectrum)/tliaty, transliaspec/transmesospec (transliagender/transmesobinary spectrum)/transliaty/tmesobinary, or simply TLIA (translia), transmeso/tmeso: umbrella term for trans individuals who fits both “mia-” and “fia-” sides of the viabinary-to-aptobinary spectrum.

It's similar to transavire (transgenderavire), tbingender/TBIN (transbin/transbingender), tlideospec/tlideo (tlideogender/tlideobinary), and tlingender (TLIN/translin)/translingender. It could also anyone who fits both tmaingender and tfeingender (TMAIN/TFEIN) spectrums.

Abinaryn't Pride Flag

Abinaryn't (nonabinary/non-abinary/nonabin or nonab/non-ab/naby): not abinary; an umbrella term for anyone who is not abinary.

Flag colors obtained from mixing stripes from aptobinary, ambinary, and midbinary flags. This is inclusive of trans, non-binary, and cis individuals (plus viabinary, ideobinary, mesobinary, etc.).

[multigenderswag]

I learned the word ambinary (binary ambigender, being both binary genders). but idk if it's right the way it's worded. but pretty sure many people use just "male-female bigender" or androgyne to mean that, right‽ I like how ambonec (being both yet neither at once) is worded

That feels like the more official version of "yesbinary"

Ambonec is very cool! They also have a pretty flag iirc

[beyond-mogai-pride-flags]

Lesbinary Pride Flag

Lesbinary or lesbianary (or lesbianry): ascribing binary lesbians.

This includes any lesbian who feel included in the word "binary" in terms of gender, such as those who are aptobinary, bonusbinary, ambinary, yesbinary, bingender, exorgender, wergender, wifgender, binarigender, binary bigender, multibinary, bibinary, binary nonbinary, and so on.

[beyond-mogai-pride-flags]

Cisbinary Flag

Cisbinary: a conformant term describing someone who is cis* (cisgender/cissex/cisvestic/cismodal) experiencing a binary gender (aptobinary/xorgender).

Inclusive of cisqueer (neocis, cis femache), neobinary (bonusbinary, ambinary/mesobinary, yesbinary), and AGAB nonconforming (ANC) people (plus more).

Counterpart: transbinary.

[beyond-mogai-pride-flags]

Maybinary Pride Flag

Maybinary (mayby/maybies or maybenary): someone who may be binary and/or may not be binary (maynby/maynb or maynonbinary); maybe being aptobinary, maybe not (maybinaryn't/maybenaryn't).

Maybinaries could be yesbinary (ambisobinary, ambinary/ambibinary or mesobinary) and/or nobinary (abinary or exobinary), semibinary (demibinary, half-binary or hemibinary) or seminonbinary (semienby/seminby, demienby/deminby/deminonbinary or heminonbinary/hemienby/heminby), abrobinary or aptobinary (exorgender), or anonbinary (binaryn't nonbinaryn't).

Usually, if someone asks "are you a boy or a girl?" or "are you binary?" you answer "maybe" (or "maybe yes, maybe not") or "so-so" (sobinary/sosobinary). Useful for questioning.

[multigenderswag]

idk why it annoys me so much that people tag bigender posts with nonbinary. like some bigender people ARE nonbinary. but it still irks me. my current guess is because I hiss and spit at everything that has the smallest chance at intending to degender me

For me, it feels similar to when aromantic posts get tagged with asexual. Do aro and ace communities have a lot of overlap? Yeah! Are a lot of aro people ace? Also yes! And that's great! But some aro people are not ace (like me), so it gets very frustrating when they're treated as synonyms. Especially in the case of bigender/nonbinary, since having them treated as synonyms leads to misgendering which is hurtful in addition to being annoying.
