NON BINARY
Those with non-binary genders can feel that they: Have an androgynous (both masculine and feminine) gender identity, such as androgyne. Have an identity between male and female, such as intergender. Have a neutral or non-existant gender identity, such as agender or neutrois.
If you relate to the above and think that you are alone...you are not! Take a look at the following:
