The wiki dedicated to the promotion of non-binary gender identities
Non-binary wiki was created on the 1st of February 2017, after the original Nonbinary.org Wiki went down. Luckily, the Wayback Machine has a copy of it. Our goal is to build a new wiki with the best of the old as well as new and improved content.
Since the day of its creation, 569 users have been working on 951 articles here.
Non-binary is a term that refers to people whose gender is neither male nor female. Their gender can be neither, both, a third one or it can also change over time. Non-binary people fall under the transgender umbrella term, and non-binary is an umbrella term itself, although some people use it to describe their specific gender identity too.
Click on the blue words above or explore the wiki to learn more about non-binary identities!
This site is a wiki, meaning that anybody (including you) can make a contribution to it. You don't even need to create an account, although it's strongly recommended. These are some things you can do to contribute:
- Edit an existing article. Search any page and improve its content! You can also expand a stub.
- Go to the list of wanted pages and create one of them! (You can use the old Nonbinary.org wiki as a starting point)
- Spread the word. If you know somebody who is non-binary or questioning their gender, tell them about this wiki. If you don't know anybody like this, tell them anyway!
Pronouns are a part of language used to refer to someone or something without using proper nouns. In standard English, some singular third-person pronouns are "he" and "she," which are usually seen as gender-specific pronouns, referring to a man and a woman, respectively. A gender-neutral pronoun or gender-inclusive pronoun is one that gives no implications about gender, and could be used for someone of any gender. Some languages only have gender-neutral pronouns, whereas other languages have difficulty establishing any that aren't gender-specific. People with non-binary gender identities often choose new third-person pronouns for themselves as part of their transition. They often choose gender-neutral pronouns so that others won't see them as female or male.
