Section: Identities Worth Knowing

55/x

There are a theoretically infinite number of nonbinary genders.

The Gender Census is an incredibly valuable tool that allows people to know which nonbinary identities are the most common.

And to a surprising degree, the most common nonbinary identities are fairly consistent, from year to year.

56/x

There are times when a nonbinary person chooses to discuss their gender with a friend, family member, employer, or someone else.

It would be greatly beneficial to everyone involved for the person learning this information to already be somewhat familiar with the terms and ideas that will be discussed during this conversation.

57/x

#Nonbinary

Otherwise, the nonbinary person will be required to explain their identity terms, and the entire concept of nonbinary identity itself, to someone who has absolutely no idea what they are talking about.

58/x

#Nonbinary

If you want to be an ally, it would be really helpful if you could learn about these ideas BEFORE you find yourself in a situation where you will need to know them.

59/x

You don’t need to know every possible nonbinary identity someone might use, but you should be familiar with the ones that are most common.

These are the terms we have covered in this series thus far.

60/x

In the years ahead, you will continue to hear conservative Republican politicians rally crowds of profoundly ignorant people by proclaiming, “there are only two genders.”

On cue, these crowds will erupt into thunderous applause at the prospect of someone telling them they are wise for being so closed minded.

61/x

#Politics #USPol #Nonbinary #Gender #Conservative #Republicans

Many people, listening to this, will know the conservative politician is being a transphobic asshole, but for the life of them, they won’t know what those additional genders are.

62/x

Because you read this series, you will know a lot more than that.

The group of people disparaged by these remarks are nonbinary people, who have a gender identity that isn’t exclusively male or female.

About 1% of US adults are nonbinary.

Gender Identity in the United States

  Now that we’ve discussed transgender and nonbinary identities, let’s take a look at the numbers behind gender identity in the United Stat...

The most common identities used by nonbinary people are umbrella terms, like queer, transgender, and genderqueer.

Some people use nonbinary to describe their gender, without also using a more specific term.

The most common specific nonbinary identities are genderfluid and agender.

64/x

#Nonbinary #Queer #Transgender #Genderqueer #Genderfluid #Agender #Trans

So not only will you know that the conservative politician is wrong, but why.

You will also know the basic facts about the ideas and identities they are looking to disparage and suppress.

65/x

In addition to hearing these identity terms, you might also see the colorful pride flags associated with them.

The most common gender identity flags are the transgender, nonbinary, and genderfluid flags.

I discussed these flags in "Gender Identity and Biological Sex."

The term autigender refers to when someone’s gender, or their experience of gender, is influenced by their autism.

Autigender appeared once in the Gender Census, in 2025, when it was chosen by 5.5% of respondents.

Sometimes, nonbinary people partially identify with a binary gender.

This can be seen in compound terms like "nonbinary woman" or "nonbinary man".

I examined how common it is for nonbinary people to identify with binary gender terms, such as man, woman, boy or girl.

Transgender people often experience a discomfort between their internal sense of their own gender, and the ways other people interact with them based on their perceived gender, or what other people believe their gender should be.

This discomfort is known as gender dysphoria.

The article quotes extensively from a suicide note a transgender teenage girl wrote before killing herself.

In that article, I explained why it's critical for people to accept the identities of transgender people, including transgender children.

Fair warning, the article deals with some really heavy topics.
