[[Nonbinary gender]] is any gender that exists outside of the gender binary. That is, any gender not described by just "male" or "female". Even in societies that recognize only two genders, there are still people who find that they don't fit into those two. Despite the lack of recognition of nonbinary genders in Western [[binarism|binarist]] society, nonbinary genders are still valid identities. | [[Nonbinary gender]] is any gender that exists outside of the gender binary.

Gender identity can remain the same or change over the course of an individual's life. [[Genderfluid]] people experience frequent changes in their gender identity, as often as monthly, weekly, or even several times a day. Other people, however, have the same gender identity throughout their entire life, with little to no change. It depends on the individual. | Gender identity can remain the same or change over the course of an individual's life.
