We are a blog created for people of all ages who have questions concerning their gender identity. Read our FAQ here!
Transgender is an umbrella term that is inclusive of, but not limited to (nor forced upon), trans women, trans men, non-binary people, genderfluid people, genderqueer people, agender people, and anyone who doesn't identify as the gender assigned to them at birth.

my gender is both male and nonbinary at the same time, and i’m always both, but sometimes the nonbinary part is stronger than other times? like some days i’m maybe 25% nonbinary and others i’m more like 75% nonbinary or whatever. would that be bigender or genderfluid (or something else?)? i tried looking at the nb flowchart but nothing seemed to fit exactly what my gender is.... (sorry if i missed something in the faq; i often have a hard time understanding things :c )

Lee says:

Hmm. Here are a 5 terms that could work: Nonbinary man, genderfluid, bigender, boyflux, and demiboy.

Followers, if you have a similar ID do you use those (or other) labels?

Followers say:

neo-pronouns said: I’m bigenderfluid! Bigenderfluid male/agender in fact!

9-circles-of-dissonance said: I feel basically the same way—I’ve used boyflux and I think that could describe what you feel, but I’m pretty genderfluid could describe any kind of day to day gender variance, and I’ve used that too

vadhnatta said: Pretty similar here and I like nonbinary man (demiboy is close but feels younger to me?). I also really like thinking about genderfluidity, but am not sure it’s quite me

hi! i identify as a nonbinary trans man and while ive come to terms with not feeling weird or embarrassed about that (suck it transphobes) i just wanted to ask anyone who also identifies this way or similarly if they experience feeling more one way or the other at different times? like sometimes ill feel real connected to the nb part of my identity and then another day very connected to the male part and it confuses me because it makes me wonder if i can really be both or if im just one

Kai says:

I used to identify as a nonbinary trans boy, and now identify as nonbinary and transmasculine, but I know multiple people who identify as nonbinary trans men and that is totally valid!

Followers, anyone else identify this way?

Followers say:

siakenobi said: I identify as a nb trans man!! It’s taken me a long time to accept this because of the risk of being called a transtrender. I know it’s difficult to do, but my advice is stop listening to stranger’s opinions and surround yourself with people who love and support you for who you really are.

electricjudgement said: im also an nb trans guy and i totally have the same experience!! you arent alone :)

raynbowskullkape said: I also identify as a nonbinary trans guy. I’m mostly in the closet irl, but I’m pretty open online and haven’t had any problems with the few irl people I’ve come out to so far ^_^

i'm a trans boy, but i'm kinda like "i wish i had no gender at all". i want to be seen as a boy and i see myself as one, but at the same time also imagine me being agender, like "an agender boy" but MAYBE that don't make sense at all. i wouldn't have problems saying I don't have a gender (I even use a gender neutral name), but I prefer using masculine pronouns. i feel confused... am i an "agender" person or just a trans boy? ~🦊 anon

Kii says:

You could look into the label agender boy!

Lee says:

Nonbinary boy is another label that would encompass the agender boy label, so you can decide if you want to use both terms or just one of them.

Do you have resources on nonbinary men specifically? I'm trying to find info on it.

I’m not sure of what kind of resources you want?

A nonbinary man is, usually, someone who does feel a connection to maleness and/or masculinity in some way, but who doesn’t completely identify as a [binary] man.

Some examples of people who may consider themselves nonbinary men are:

  • People who feel like they are partly, but not wholly, men; for instance, someone who is 15% a man and 85% genderless, or someone who is 70% a man and 30% a woman
  • People who don’t feel like they are binary at all, but who don’t mind being considered men with regards to attraction, transition, day-to-day life and/or so on to make things easier and/or because they identify with some ideas related to maleness and/or masculinity
  • People who are men, but feel alienated from the idea of being binary men because of some other identity they have, or because they feel like they interpret being a man in a way that’s different from what their society considers a man
  • People who are men some/most of the time, but not always; such as a genderfluid person who is usually a man but who sometimes has other/no gender(s)
  • People whose genders are a blend between man and something else
  • People who feel like their gender is close to that of a binary man’s, but just the label man on it’s own doesn’t fit
  • People who are nonbinary and masculine and prefer to say they are nonbinary men instead of using masculine-specific labels (such as mingender or ceteromasculine)
  • People who are proxvirs, demimen, quivermen, neuvirs, nixvirs, melles, neuromen, agender men, genderless men, genderflux men, demifluid men, duramen, androxes, xoys and other identities that mean you are a man in some way

It’s worth noting that not all people who use those labels and/or have these experiences use the label of nonbinary man. This list just means they theoretically could. And there are probably other reasons people identify as nonbinary men I don’t know of/don’t remember right now.

It may also be worth noting nonbinary men may use any pronouns sets they want, and may have had any gender assignment at birth.

I sadly can’t source these, since they come with personal experience from reading about experiences and the ways people use labels. The nonbinary man and nonbinary boy tags are full of general nonbinary/transmasculine/transgender posts with the occasional selfie, so I can’t link to anything, and most sites’ definitions of nonbinary man are either vague or lacking, imho.

I sent some messages to group chats I’m in, to see if there’s any nonbinary man/boy I can forward further questions to. If someone takes the offer, I’ll tag them on a reply to this post. I’m not a nonbinary man/boy myself, after all.

If any follower is a NB man/boy and wants to offer their help as well, feel free to reply!

Nonbinary Boy

Nonbinary Boy: Nonbinary means not a binary gender. A Nonbinary person might call themselves a boy because they might feel associated with that gender, but be, for instance, a demiboy, which is a non binary gender. Other people might feel comfortable with masculine pronouns and a masculine presentation, and therefore call themselves a boy because of that association and because calling themselves a boy helps express that association, but they may still have a nonbinary identity like agender. Both these people might therefore be a non binary boy. These are just examples, but there are reasons someone might call themselves a non binary boy/girl.

Color meanings: Mix yellow (a nonbinary color) with blue to create green/orange, so signify the nonbinary and boy part. The grays and white is likely to symbolize agender and partial gender.

I’m nonbinary & trans & I was wondering if it’s possible to feel agender & like a boy but not a binary boy ? Is that a thing ? What exactly does that mean ? I mostly feel agender but sometimes I feel this internal sense of gender but idk exactly what it is or how to describe it I just feel its presence but it’s fairly rare that I can tend to ignore it.It doesn’t necessarily bother me but I’m just curious to what it is

Kai says:

Yes, this is totally valid. I know someone who identifies as agender, but sometimes as a boy (genderflux) so it’s okay to use both labels together or separately. I used to identify as a nonbinary boy, check out our tag on that for more info.

I started going to a therapist to get my letter for top surgery, and the cheapest most accessible one was a therapist who didn’t have much experience with trans people. Because of that I got scared she would be a bit gatekeepy and lied to her about my gender. (I said i was a trans guy when i’m a nonbinary boy) I didn’t want to take a chance of her not writing the letter I desperately need, but now I feel kinda guilty. Was it wrong to do that? Should I have been honest about my gender/pronouns?

Kai says:

No, I dont think you should feel bad. I was going to do the same thing because I’m also nonbinary transmasc and want T / top surgery but I luckily found a provider that is affirming of nonbinary people. Theres no harm in just assuring that you’re going to be able to get the healthcare you need with minimal pushback.

Lee says:

Same here. I was lucky enough to find medical providers who were totally accepting of me being genderqueer so I didn’t have to hide my nb status to access medical transitioning, but I also would have lied and said I was binary with no guilt if nb-phobic gatekeeping was preventing me from getting what I need for my body. 

It isn’t wrong- it’s defs unfortunate you have to hide parts of who you are, but you do what you gotta do sometimes.

I'm confused. Is it possible to be non-binary and a transboy at the same time? It seems like it is, and i kinda feel like this would be something i identify as, but i'm not sure i fully understand it.

Kai says:

Yes, it’s possible. I identify as a nonbinary trans boy and to me it means that I’m a trans boy, but also nonbinary if that makes sense. I do not identify fully as male, but I am masculine of center. I am nonbinary, trans, and a boy so putting those together I’m a nonbinary trans boy as opposed to a binary trans boy who might identify as 100% male whereas I do not identify 100%. I hope that makes sense. Labels are really what you make of them, and however you feel is valid.

I came out as an FTM dude and if I realise I'm more of a demiboy/nonbinary boy is it all good if that identity is personal? Like I don't tell anyone?

Kai says:

if you’re comfortable with having it be more personal, that’s totally fine! Yeah I came out as a binary trans guy and have since realized I’m nonbinary, but sometimes just choose to let people still assume I’m a binary trans guy because it can be easier to explain

Anonymous asked:

Sorry you've answered something similar but I'm freaking out a bit! A few years ago I came out as genderfluid to my parents and not much changed (my fault as I didn't ask for anything - I was too young and scared) but now I want to come out as an nb boy to transition. My mum says she'll be cool if I want to (she knows I struggle to talk about it) and I rlly want to tell her I do after I talk to my counsellor. How do I, 1. Explain and 2. Not freak out? Thanks!

Lee says:

You can write an outline of what you want to say to help when you’re talking to her! And it’s okay if you get a bit freaked out- just say you need to take a minute and try some grounding exercises. It might help if you as if you can discuss it when you’re going on a walk because then you don’t have to look right at her the whole time, and you’re moving your body which can help with anxiety.

i used to identify as lesbian before i came out as a nb boy. i still like to say and identify with saying i’m gay even though my attraction to boys is minimal. is it okay if i do this?

Lee says:

I think it’s okay to say you’re gay if you’re non-binary, regardless of who you’re attracted to.

For non-binary boys in particular, if you identify more as a boy than as a non-binary or the other way around you’d have to figure out for yourself whether it’s better to say that you’re straight or gay for your attraction to girls.

Followers say:

transgalaxies said: The word “gai” might be one you’re looking for, it’s nonbinary attraction that feels inherently gay in nature but isn’t necessarily same-gender

Anonymous asked:

Hey there. Sorry if this question isn’t allowed I checked the faq and I don’t believe it was covered in there. I followed your nonbinary flowchart in the FAQ and my results came up as bigender! I really like this for me but I also think maybe non binary trans man may fit for me too. Is non binary trans man an identity? Also for bigender can man and agender be my two genders I change between...? Or must it be boy or girl? Also what’s the difference between bigender and non binary trans man?

Kii says:

Yes, nonbinary boy/man is an identity you can claim. Bigender can be any two genders. There are definitions of each at those links, so you can read each definition.

Anonymous asked:

can i be a neutrois boy? like, is that a valid "combination" or label? i feel like a boy but in a special, nonbinary way with a touch of uh, not having a gender at the same time ??

Kai says:

That’s totally valid! I used to identify as a nonbinary boy, and still do, but am moving towards simply nonbinary since I’m 18 now and feeling a little less like a boy now. I also used to joke that I was “none gender with left boy” in reference to the “none pizza with left beef” meme. Or that I was __ % no gender, ___% boy. That’s totally a valid feeling!

I've identified as a male (ftm) for the past few years, but now I think I might actually be nonbinary? My pronouns are he/him and I am comfortable with being called a boy, but I don't mind people using they/them pronouns when referring to me. I feel slightly uncomfortable when I call myself male etc. (boy is the only word i feel comfortable with?) Is there a word for this or something because I am so lost

Lee says:

Our mod Kai uses the term “nonbinary boy” so you could use that!

Anonymous asked:

Can you explain being a nonbinary girl or a nonbinary boy? I'm nonbinary, but I don't understand how you can be both nonbinary and binary. I understand being nonbinary trans as calling yourself nonbinary but taking hormones and/or passing at the opposite of your assigned gender. Idk, could you explain please? As a part of the nonbinary community I want to be able to understand and support everyone in it.

Lee says:

Mod Kai is a non-binary boy and Mod Ora is a non-binary girl, and it basically means that they partially identify with the experience of being binary and partially identify with the experience of being non-binary. You can ask again if that doesn’t make sense to you.

Followers, any nonbinary boys or girls out there who want to explain why you chose that identity?

Anonymous asked:

hey! i identify as ftm and also nonbinary, is this ok?? i like being a they but i also like being called he and acting like a boy! what do i do and how do i get people to start calling me by my chosen name and pronouns?? is it ok for me to be both nb and ftm?? thank you!

Kai says:

Hey! So yes, this is totally okay! I personally identify as a nonbinary boy/guy. It’s kind of complicated, but I don’t identify with being a binary trans guy, but like I identify as vaguely a guy if that makes sense. I definitely identify as nonbinary and that label fits me. I use he/him or they/them pronouns. Many nonbinary people use he/him pronouns, so that’s definitely not something exclusive to binary trans guys. I personally share a lot of experiences with binary trans guys and often people mistake me for one, so maybe that might be why I feel like nonbinary boy is a label that works for me as a nonbinary person, but this doesn’t have to be the case.

Regarding getting people to call you the right name and pronouns, check out our Coming Out page for more general information. Hope this helps!
