Noun. NB (also Nb, nb, and the phonetic "enby") is an abbreviation for "
non-binary" and denotes a spectrum of
gender identities that do not follow the traditional gender binary expressions of "
male" and "female".
NB is often used attributively to describe
people who identify as
non-binary and is also often used by those individuals to describe themselves.
**Important: NB is NOT to be confused with NB, which has its own listing; that's right, they'
re homonyms. Good times.
NB, The gender identity, is rarely expressed with periods, in part to differentiate it from the more commonly punctuated latin abbreviation for π―π°π΅π¦ π£π¦π―π¦ but also as a matter of visual preference and in keeping with general LGBTQ nomenclature.
