A totally valid umbrella term for many genders such as, bigender, pangender, agender, genderqueer, etc. Sometimes people who are non binary use different pronouns out of the English dictionary. Such as xir/xim. I think that is the right spelling . I apologize if it is not. Anyways non binary people can go by, she/he/they, they/he, they/she, they/them, etc.
Person a: ooo shes hot
Person b: they're non binary! They're pronouns are they/them
A: oh, they're cute then
Person b: they're non binary! They're pronouns are they/them
A: oh, they're cute then

Somebody who is NOT mentally ill, but somebody who doesn’t identify as cisgender (male or female). Somebody who is non binary may use they/them pronouns or neopronouns. A common stereotype is them saying “did you just assume my gender” unironically. This is an offensive stereotype and should not be used.
John: Did you know that Juan is non binary
Linda: I never knew that. Do they use they/them pronouns?
John: Yes they do.
Linda: I never knew that. Do they use they/them pronouns?
John: Yes they do.

A completely valid gender that has existed for all of time but you're only discovering it now because people are more open about it because they feel safer and more comfortable. They identify outside of the gender spectrum usually. Neither male or female in gender these people are into doing whatever they like with their body without having to conform to a gender. This label works as an umbrella term too. Use they/them/their pronouns for them instead of she/her or he/him. They usually want to be referred to with a different name so ask them about this and let them know you respect who they are because coming out can be a very daunting and stressful task. Appreciate what they have gone through to get here and don't be afraid to talk about this.
Jake: Did you see her face?
Anna: It's their
Jake: What?
Anna: they're non-binary. They use they/them pronouns not she/her, respect that
Jake: Oh hell, sorry
Anna: It's their
Jake: What?
Anna: they're non-binary. They use they/them pronouns not she/her, respect that
Jake: Oh hell, sorry

A person that doesn't identify as strictly male, or female.
They often use they/them or neopronouns. Sometimes they will change their name to something else and their old name will be referred to as their dead name. Some non-binary people like to wear binders or want to medically transition or have HRT but not all of us do. Non-binary people don't owe you androgyny people!
Don't assume someone's gender or pronouns just lie you wouldn't assume a persons name!
Respect Peoples pronouns and don't be a dick

A person who just discovered that all humans are made from a man and a woman and thusly have both feminine and masculine traits....yet somehow think they have stumbled upon a unique state of being and decide to identify with neither of the aspects that make them who they are. These people have never heard of C.J. Jung but can promptly label you from a mountain of textbook operative definitions....none of which actually give credit to the architect of this phenomenon ....a white cisgender male....with "privilege".
"As a non-binary individual, I think you should check you white cisgender maleness"
"Uh...I am a Jungian psychologist."
"EXACTLEY.....and you are privilged to boot"
