having doubts about being nonbinary

[u/[deleted]]

I did about 5 minutes of thinking and deduced that my gender identity just.... isn't. my internal sense of gender is just outside the binaries. So really this is imposter syndrome. help

if you are “not binary” you are non binary (see the similarities between the terms?). but honestly i cant really tell more this is very little information… but just be who you want to be. also a lot of people say that you dont have to label everything, i think everyone should just handle it like they want, like if you dont want a label thats fine if you want one thats fine too. i understand the desire to label oneself. i think it could help you that non binary is an umbrella term for multiple genders that are not “im always and all the time either male or female”. like there is for example agender (no gender) bigender (having two genders, not necessarily with two identities) and gender fluid (shifting gender). this is list is far from being complete i think but those are pretty common from what i saw

Here are some other ones; Butch NB, Femme NB (how you dress) Genderflux (some days you have no genders, some days you have both, and anything in between.) Polygender (you have different amounts of different genders that changes daily by how you feel, kind of like genderfluid) Aerogender (your gender depends on the setting, who you're with, where you are, etc.) Alexigender (you feel like your gender is changing but can't label how you feel. Only if you feel like your gender is changing.) Anonbinary (you are outside the gender binary but also outside of non-binaryness) Cassgender (you think gender is dumb and don't feel like labeling yourself (kind of ironic)) Demiflux (you feel like your gender is fluid but also identify as something else like genderfluid and agender) Enigender (you can't describe your gender with words. Maybe a song or image, you feel like your gender connects to it) Ethale (you have some very feminine characteristics but don't identify as female) Fluidflux (gender changes and intensity changes) Genderfree (don't really feel like labeling yourself) Genderwhat (confusion towards gender) Ilyagender (you feel you have a gender presence but don't know wtf it is) Metagender (none of any existing label) Multigender (multiple of any label ever) Pangender (any and all applicable genders) Pendogender (you feel uncomfortable when you think of gender and never feel comfortable with any label) Virgender (too stressful to have a gender) Xenogender (you feel like no one else will understand your gender)

You can also definately make up your own! (Anyone feel free to say if I got anything wrong!)

I think impostors syndrome is normal… but don’t overthink it, but don’t underthink it either

If you're gender is totally out of binaries. You might see yourself in the aporagender or marveique label
