    ==Family and relationship words==


    Some nonbinary people don't feel right about being called words that give an idea of being female or male. Many words for family titles and relationships do: mother, brother, husband, girlfriend, and so on. Nonbinary people who prefer to be called by gender-neutral words can ask to be instead called parent, sibling, spouse, datemate, and so on. See the page [[Gender_neutral_language#Family_and_relationship_words|Gender neutral language - Family and relationship words]] for a long list. This includes some new words that are not just gender-neutral, but specifically [[genderqueer]], for nonbinary people only.

    A rhombus is a botanical symbol for a plant of unknown sex, as well as a standard family tree symbol for a person of unknown gender.

    This page is for collecting resources on the topic of family that have to do with nonbinary identity.

    Family and relationship words[edit | edit source]

    Some nonbinary people don't feel right about being called words that give an idea of being female or male. Many words for family titles and relationships do: mother, brother, husband, girlfriend, and so on. Nonbinary people who prefer to be called by gender-neutral words can ask to be instead called parent, sibling, spouse, datemate, and so on. See the page Gender neutral language in English#Family and relationship words for a long list. This includes some new words that are not just gender-neutral, but specifically for nonbinary people only.

    Being a nonbinary parent[edit | edit source]

    Nonbinary Parents Day is celebrated on the 3rd Sunday of April; this date was chosen by nonbinary parent and educator Johnny Blazes.[1][2]

    In the US state of North Carolina, December 6 is formally recognized as Gender Expansive Parents' Day since 2020.[3]

    Nonbinary parents might also celebrate Trans Parents Day (the first Sunday of November) if they identify with the trans label. See the Holidays page for a list of other observances related to trans, nonbinary, and gender nonconforming people.

    In 2021, a nonbinary transmasculine person named Krys Malcolm Belc published a book titled The Natural Mother of the Child: A Memoir of Nonbinary Parenthood.

    Family trees[edit | edit source]

    A diagram of a person's family is called a genogram or pedigree. These diagrams use a symbols for different kinds of people and relationships. This includes some standard symbols for a person's sex or gender. A square represents a man or boy, and a circle represents a woman or girl. The standard genogram symbol for a person whose gender is unknown is a rhombus/diamond or triangle. Some nonbinary people, if they are put into a family tree diagram, may prefer to have themselves represented by a genderless symbol.

    In the Journal of Genetic Counseling in 2020, a group of scientists proposed a downward-pointing equilateral triangle to be the pedigree symbol for a nonbinary or gender questioning person, with additional markings to indicate assigned sex.[4] However, other scientists have recommended using the rhombus/diamond, because of "the historical use of inverted triangles to designate certain prisoner groups in Nazi concentration camps".[5]

    Marriage[edit | edit source]

    Nonbinary people who have a legal gender of "X" (or something else besides M or F) may face barriers to marriage, especially in places that define marriage as "between a man and a woman", as happened in Australia for intersex nonbinary person Tony Briffa. Additionally, some jurisdictions offer M and F as the only options on applications for marriage, requiring nonbinary people to misgender themselves even if they have other documents recognizing their nonbinary gender.[6]
