someone who isn't on the gender binary - they don't identify as male nor female. pronouns are usually they/them, and no it's not a fucking mental illness. it's not a term used by "special snowflakes" or "girls who want to feel special". sorry but it just be like that sometimes.

A nonbinary person is someone whose gender is neither female nor male. Nonbinary people can have a variety of gender identities and gender expressions, and nonbinary is not a single gender. Nonbinary people are often trans. Nonbinary people often use they/them pronouns but often use other pronouns. Sometimes nonbinary is written with a hyphen (non-binary).

Non-binary people may also identify as transgender and/or transsexual. The label genderqueer has a lot of overlap with non-binary. Non-binary is often seen as the preferred term, as "queer" may be used as a transphobic insult.
Non-binary people may wish to transition so that their gender expression more closely reflects their internal identity. Many non-binary people wish to appear androgynous and adopt unisex names, gender-neutral titles such as Mx. and/or gender-neutral pronouns, but others prefer to express themselves in ways which are traditionally seen as masculine or feminine or to mix aspects of the two.
Non-binary people can have any sexual orientation, although if attracted primarily to a single gender they may prefer to use gender-terminology to express this, such as androsexual or gynosexual.

People that don't identify themselves as gender binary aka man or woman, it's an umbrella term for genderfluid, genderqueer, agender, bigender, and more. Usually, nonbinary folks use they/them pronouns but there are also neo pronouns. And if anybody says it's not right grammar ok Karen your son is failing English go teach him that grammar of yours
Person 1: do you see that man in front of us with mullet beard and is in dress
Person 2: that's not a man they are nonbinary and use they/them pronouns
Person 1: ok but they're hot
Person 2: dude, I have eyes
