Am I Nonbinary or Just Gender Nonconforming? How to Tell the Difference

You reject traditional gender expectations. You don't conform to how your assigned gender is "supposed" to act or dress. So does that make you nonbinary? Or just gender nonconforming?

After 7,200+ assessments with transgender and nonbinary adults, here's the critical distinction: Being nonbinary is about your internal gender identity. Being gender nonconforming is about how you express gender. They're related, but they're NOT the same thing.

In this video, I explain:

  • The key difference between gender identity and gender expression.

  • Why we constantly conflate nonbinary identity with nonconforming presentation.

  • Real examples of gender nonconforming people vs. nonbinary people

  • Why you can be nonbinary in a dress OR a suit.

  • The ONE question that separates identity from expression

  • Additional questions to explore whether you're nonbinary or gender nonconforming.

  • Why your presentation doesn't determine your identity.

    This video is for anyone questioning whether they're nonbinary or if they just don't conform to gender stereotypes.
