    you have to specify what genders of nonbinary are/aren’t welcome

    “Genders of nonbinary”

    My friend, nonbinary is a gender. This is like asking what type of bird a chicken is.

      Nonbinary is a category of genders much like intersex is a category of sexes. It contains everything from agender to bigender to demigenders and all sorts of others. Much like how intersex can mean anything from completely ambiguous reproductive structures to anomalies of the sex chromosomes to natural hormone imbalance starting at puberty as well as several other traits. Sometimes it’s relevant to narrow it down.
