    Proposed Split

    [edit]

    Recent data from the Gender Census—the largest survey of people outside the gender binary—indicates that “nonbinary” and “genderqueer” are widely understood as distinct terms or identities, rather than one being an umbrella for the other. Elantrisadjusts (talk) 13:34, 9 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    Intersex

    [edit]

    I believe I remember reading recently that a significant portion of intersex people do identify as transgender or non-binary. Unfortunately, I don't remember where I read this, but I'll post source if I come across it, unless someone else does.FourLights (talk) 11:08, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    Genderqueer pride flag

    [edit]

    It may be just an accidental coincidence, but the Genderqueer pride flag bears more than a slight resemblance to the flag of the Suffragette movement. Not that there's any likelihood of confusion between them, the latter being completely historical, and extinct as a movement (as well as both flags being broadly in sympathy with one another's ideals); but the similarity is worth pointing out, being expressive of the convergent creative evolution seen in many pieces of iconography.

    @Nuttyskin: Is the similarity discussed in reliable sources? -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (they|xe|🤷) 01:58, 27 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    It would require Reliable Sources and, even then, we wouldn't be able to draw any inferences from it unless the sources themselves did. It might be more contentious than you think. The Suffragette flag colours are still used by some feminists and have also been appropriated by some anti-trans groups to create an appearance of feminism. Some of the latter really hate the non-binary flag. DanielRigal (talk) 01:58, 27 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    I have no information related to reliable sources; my post was more aimed at stirring up discussion, in case any editors were aware of prior, encyclopedic disputations on the subject.

    Is r/lbgallt a reliable source? /j -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (they|xe|🤷) 02:19, 27 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Not that we should add to the article, but I felt these would be relevant to inform: the author already addressed this issue. The coincidence was accidental. There are other sources briefly commenting on this [1] [2]. And Suffragettes were seen as third-gender at some point [3] [4]. LIrala (talk) 23:51, 11 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    Non-binary genderNon-binary – Based on data from the Gender Census (the largest demographic survey of people outside the gender binary), respondents overwhelmingly refer to themselves as “non-binary,” not as having “a non-binary gender.” The current title is inconsistent with how similar pages are treated—e.g., “Male” and “Female” are not titled “Male gender” or “Female gender.” “Non-binary” can be both an umbrella term and an identity in itself, and the more concise title would better reflect common usage and align with existing naming conventions.
