Binarism is often exhibited towards nonbinary people by cis gender and binary trans gender people alike.

The adjective form of binarism is binarist. A specific thought/action/etc that exhibits binarism is said to be binarist in quality.

I wish people would say "honored guests" instead of "ladies and gentlemen" when addressing groups. "Ladies and gentlemen" is so binarist! It makes my heart hurt just to hear it. I really wish binarism wasn't a thing, and that people like me were recognized as being real.
