#toric

It is one thing if a non-binary person personally labels their relationship as such. However, the active neglect of non-binary specific labels is exorsexist, especially since sapphic/yuri is predominantly used to refer to feminine relationships and achillean/yaoi is predominantly used to refer to masculine relationships. (This is not to say sapphic and achillean can't refer to other gender types, but theres no denying the binary-centric history these terms hold within the community.)

Fandom spaces are even worse with this, treating all non-binary relationships as just sapphic-lite and achillean-lite.

If you are in a fandom, and you have a character with a non-binary ship, please promote non-binary language.

At the very least, please mix in non-binary language with your binary-centric terms (ie; a non-binary person who is dating a binary man, and prefers to be called a husband, while using terms such as toric or adonic for their relationship.)

Here are some terms used in the same way sapphic/yuri and achillean/yaoi are:

-Diamoric (A relationship that involves a non-binary person in some shape or form) -Trixic (NBLW) and Maedic (WLNB) -Toric (NBLM) and Adonic (MLNB) -Enbian (NBLNB) and Binitian (Binary Loving Non-binary)

Here are some terms used in the same way lesbian and uranian are:

-Feminamoric (non-binary person primarily attracted to women.) -Viramoric (non-binary person primarily attracted to men.) -Ceteramoric (non-binary person primarily attracted to other non-binary people.) -Tria (binary person primarily attracted to non-binary people. This could be any type of non-binary person, or specific types of non-binary people). Can be spelled alternatively based on attraction (ie; triasexual, triaromantic, triaplatonic, etc.)

Here are some terms used for dating/marriage:

-Bach/Bachlorex/Bachloree/Bachloren/Bachlorum (unmarried) -Partner/Joyfriend/Datefriend/Enbyfriend/Enfriend (dating) -Fiance/Nearlywed/Betrothed/Celebrant (engaged) -Marrier/Newlywed/Bridegroom/Brigroom/Gide (getting married) -Spouse/Wifeband/Huswife/Wifen/Husen/Wifet/Huset/Esso/Essie (married/spouse)

And while we're here, stop calling non-binary people "they/thems." Non-binary people do not all collectively use they/them pronouns, we can also use he/him, she/her, it/its, neopronouns, multiple pronouns, or even no pronouns. Our genders do not deserve to be boiled down to infantilizing language like "my little they."

When referring to a singular person, use the words non-binary person, enby, or enban.

Special mentions:

not all nonbinary people use they them or even like the set. nonbinary people can use he him, she her, it its, neopronouns, or any combination of these. it is perfectly acceptable and encouraged to default to they them if you do not know a persons pronouns, but the best way to know how to call a nonbinary person is to just ask us.

nonbinary people are not "theys" or "thems" or "they thems" or any term that simplifies us to pronouns. we are not all "things" or "creatures." there are absolutely nonbinary people who are alright with, or even use, these terms, but many of us do not like the dehumanizing aspect of it and find it offensive. the best way to know how to refer to us is to just ask us.

nonbinary people may present any way they want. they can present femininely, masculinely, neutrally, androgynously, or with any other modality. nonbinary people are not required to present "opposite" of their sex and we are not required to present neutrally or androgynously.

nonbinary people can be straight just as they can be gay or lesbian. not all nonbinary people are multisexual. it is entirely up to the person to decide how to label themselves. some nonbinary people use these more well known terms and some use terms made explicitly for nonbinary people such as trixic, toric, enbian, ceterosexual, gai, strayt, uranic, neptunic, and so many more. some nonbinary people use multiple attraction labels and some only use one. some nonbinary people use consistent labels and some nonbinary people use contradictory ones. it is entirely up to the person to decide how to label themselves.

nonbinary people can choose to transition socially, medically, or both. some nonbinary people pick a different name and some use their birth name. some nonbinary people choose a gender neutral name and some choose explicitly masculine or feminine ones. some nonbinary people want to start HRT and some do not. some nonbinary people choose to take typically prescribed amounts and some choose to microdose HRT. some nonbinary people go through the medilegal process and some DIY. some nonbinary people want top surgery and others dont. some nonbinary people desire opposite genitalia and some nonbinary people are fine with their current. some nonbinary people are altersex and desire a mix, combination, or lack of genitalia. some nonbinary people are intersex and many of us are perisex or dyadic.
