Get the NonBinarymug. An umbrella term for genders outside of the stereotyped gender binary. (Agender, bigender, Genderfluid, polygender, demi, etc.)
1 Vae uses she/he pronouns because she is bigender. He is considered to be under the nonbinary umbrella.
2 Oliver feels a lack in any gender at all, they have concluded they are agender. This puts Oliver under the nonbinary umbrella.

Get the Nonbinarymug. Labelling oneself as NonBinary is a pleading with one's immediate audience to acknowledge them as not heterosexual...serving to separate their identity from men and women...

Get the Nonbinarymug. 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.
