Disclaimer: While this guide is written by a non-binary person in collaboration with many other non-binary writers and readers, it does not necessarily cover the views of all people within the non-binary community.

PART ONE: the basics.

First off, what is this thing you call non-binary?

Non-binary genders are any gender identity that isn’t covered in the Western idea of woman (girl) and man (boy). This identity has nothing to do with which chromosomes or sexual organs a person has. Some non-binary people also identify as being trans (which is technically an umbrella term containing non-binary), while others only identify as being non-binary. Some commonly use the slang term enbie (which comes from the pronunciation of the initials for non-binary, aka N.B.) while others don’t. Some break down their gender further than simply non-binary, while others choose not to.

Some terms for common non-binary genders:

Agender: having no gender.

Bigender: having both binary genders, or aspects of two different genders, usually simultaneously. (Much like the bi in bisexual, non-binary people may also claim this term if they have any number of genders, especially if they can’t quite tell where one ends and the other begins, or they may claim the term pangender instead.)

Demi-(boy/girl/man/woman): being partially (but not wholly) binary.

Gender-fluid: transitioning between genders, which may include both binary and non-binary genders.

Gender-queer (or just queer): not of a binary gender. May be used when someone does not feel that any other terms fit them quite right, when they’re still trying to determine their gender and don’t yet wish to choose a term, or simply because the person finds it to fit them best.

There are also genders similar to what Western cultures call non-binary in many non-Western cultures, which are wonderfully diverse and all incerdibly valid, but as someone from an exclusively Western cultural heratage, I don’t feel I have the right or the knoweldge to talk about them.

So then, who are these non-binary people in real life?

The only thing that differentiates a non-binary person from a binary person is that they don’t identify as having a binary gender.

Their non-binary-ness could influence their lives in an infinite number of ways:

It could be subtle or life changing.

They could use fashion and vocal training and actions to present themselves in ways outside their society’s binary gender norms, or they could never even mention they’re non-binary to another living soul. 

They could change their pronouns, or their name, or keep one or both the same.

They could spend years re-figuring out who they are and what it means to be non-binary or they could realize it once and never feel the need to dwell on it again.

They could identity as one of the numerous non-binary labels, or they could decide they’re just not binary and don’t care to dig further than that. 

They could accept all gendered terms, or certain gendered terms, or no gendered terms at all.

People assuming they’re binary could frustrate them or sadden them or anger them, or they could not care in the slightest. 

They may feel they exhibit (or wish to exhibit) many of the traits their society designates to a certain binary gender, or they many not.

They could feel the same way about their identity all the time, or differently every day.

Each non-binary person (and character) is unique, and their non-binary-ness is just one tiny part of who they are.

The basic do’s and don’ts for writing non-binary characters respectfully if you’re a binary person…

First | Previous | Next

I know it can be hard to start using new pronouns and a new name, my family still has a problem sometimes and I even misgender myself once in a while so here are some ways to help you get used to new names/pronouns as well as some things we all need to remember:

Never purposely use the wrong name/pronouns out of spite or anger or for any other reason: It is never okay to purposely misgender someone so just don’t do it. We understand if you make mistakes but if you do it on purpose then honestly you’re just being awful and are probably really hurting that person

Correct yourself when someone tells you that you used the wrong name/pronouns: It’s not hard to apologize and correct yourself, and I am sure that whoever corrected you greatly appreciates it if you do. Be humble and admit when you’ve made a mistake, your pride means nothing beside someone’s emotional wellbeing 

Whenever you think of that person repeat their name/pronouns in your head: This is a good habit that can help you get used to changing pronouns and/or names. If you think of that person, repeat the pronouns and/or name 3 or 4 times. Soon it will become second nature and you’ll have to worry much less about messing them up

Use the correct name and pronouns even when speaking about that person in the past: Most people don’t like when you use their deadnames and old pronouns, no matter the situation. It reminds them of their transness (if they are trans) and that’s not always the best thing. Using their chosen name and pronouns is the better bet in that situation unless they say otherwise or give you explicit permission to use their deadname and previous pronouns. This also helps avoid any mix-ups or accidentally outing someone to others

*laughs in i got to this in november* Ghosts are very cool! Here’s some spoopy names :)

- Appa (short for apparition)

- Seance

- Wraith

- Shadow

- Soul

- Nek (short for necro or necromancy)

When listing the reason for why you are legally changing your name, all you really have to put is that you use this name in your day-to-day life!

sure!
