Another specific form of cissexism is [[Nonbinary Erasure|Nonbinary erasure]], the common but wrong idea that there are only two genders. This comes with the expectation that everyone should fit into only one of the two parts of the [[gender binary]]. This can result in discrimination against people with non-binary gender identities. One way this problem can be addressed is by working for [[Visibility|visibility]] and [[Recognition|recognition]] of non-binary people.

Nonbinary erasure is connected to [[Intersex#Dyadism|dyadism]], the belief that there are only two sexes, and [[biological essentialism]], the belief that one's body is what permanently makes somebody who they are.
