Non-binary[a] and genderqueer are umbrella terms for gender identities that are outside the male/female gender binary.[2][3] Non-binary identities often fall under the transgender umbrella since non-binary people typically identify with a gender that is different from the sex assigned to them at birth,[3] although some non-binary people do not consider themselves transgender.[4][5]
Non-binary people may identify as an intermediate or separate third gender,[6] identify with more than one gender[7][8] or no gender, or have a fluctuating gender identity.[9] Gender identity is separate from sexual or romantic orientation;[10] non-binary people have various sexual orientations.[11]
Being non-binary is also not the same as being intersex. Most intersex people identify as either men or women,[12] although some identify as only non-binary, some identify as non-binary and genderfluid, such as Hida Viloria, while others identify as non-binary men or non-binary women.
Non-binary people as a group vary in their gender expressions, and some may reject gender identity altogether.[13] Some non-binary people receive gender-affirming care to reduce the mental distress caused by gender dysphoria, such as gender-affirming surgery or hormone replacement therapy.[14]
