'''Enbyphobia''' is a specific form of [[transphobia]] that affects [[nonbinary]] people. It is an ignorant attitude toward nonbinary people that leads to prejudiced actions. <ref>https://beyond-mogai-pride-flags.tumblr.com/post/167039576895/hi-i-just-saw-the-term-enbyphobia-but-i-cant</ref>. The term comes from "enby" which is an abbreviation of the word "nonbinary (NB)," and is used as a specifically nonbinary equivalent to 'boy' or 'girl'.


Enbyphobia is a fear of nonbinary gender people that leads to prejudice and negative attitudes. It is useful to describe the cause of violence against nonbinary people.  
Enbyphobia is prevalent in [[queer]] and [[transgender]] spaces as well. For example, nonbinary people are often told that they should just pick a binary gender or that they aren't part of the community. In addition, the [[gender expression]] of nonbinary people is often expected to be [[androgyny|androgynous]], and expressions of masculinity or femininity is seen as strange and invalid. <ref>https://badapplepie.wordpress.com/2016/10/26/enbyphobia-in-cistrans-spaces/</ref>
