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 [[gender symbols|symbols]] for a person's [[sex]] or [[gender]]. A square represents a [[men|man]] or boy, and a circle represents a [[women|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]].<ref name="TuiteDalla PiazzaBrandi2020">{{cite journal | last1 = Tuite | first1 = Allysa | last2 = Dalla Piazza | first2 = Michelle | last3 = Brandi | first3 = Kristyn | last4 = Pletcher | first4 = Beth A. | title = Beyond circles and squares: A commentary on updating pedigree nomenclature to better represent patient diversity | journal = Journal of Genetic Counseling | date = 27 February 2020 | volume = 29 | issue = 3 | pages = 435–439 | issn = 1059-7700 | eissn = 1573-3599 | doi = 10.1002/jgc4.1234 | pmid = 32103563 | url = }}</ref> 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".<ref name="BennettFrenchResta2022">{{cite journal | last1 = Bennett | first1 = Robin L. | last2 = French | first2 = Kathryn Steinhaus | last3 = Resta | first3 = Robert G. | last4 = Austin | first4 = Jehannine | title = Practice resource‐focused revision: Standardized pedigree nomenclature update centered on sex and gender inclusivity: A practice resource of the National Society of Genetic Counselors | journal = Journal of Genetic Counseling | date = 15 September 2022 | issn = 1059-7700 | eissn = 1573-3599 | doi = 10.1002/jgc4.1621 | pmid = 36106433 | url =https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/jgc4.1621 }} (Free-access article)</ref>

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.<ref name="Sosin">{{Cite web |title=Can You Actually Get Married With a Non-Binary ID? |last=Sosin |first=Kate |work=NewNowNext |date=4 August 2019 |access-date=12 November 2020 |url= http://www.newnownext.com/non-binary-id-married/04/2019/}}</ref>
