Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between agender and non-binary?

Non-binary is an umbrella term for any gender identity that is not simply man or woman. Agender is one specific identity under that umbrella: having no gender at all, rather than a mix or a gender in between. Most agender people count as non-binary, though not all use that word.

Is agender the same as asexual?

No. Agender is about gender identity — who you are. Asexual is about sexual attraction — who, if anyone, you are drawn to. An agender person may be of any sexual orientation.

What pronouns do agender people use?

There is no single answer. Many use they/them, some use neopronouns such as ze or xe, and some are comfortable with he or she. The only reliable method is to ask.
