What “Nonbinary” Means

Gender identity is an internal sense of self that can be male, female, nonbinary, or another identity. It is distinct from sex assigned at birth. The American Psychological Association defines gender identity as a deeply felt, inherent sense of being a boy, man, male, girl, woman, female, or a nonbinary gender.

Nonbinary is an umbrella for identities that are not exclusively male or female, sometimes fluctuating or fixed, sometimes neutral. You can check out APA Division 44’s fact sheet on nonbinary identities to get more into detail.

Clinical standards recognize nonbinary people within “transgender and gender diverse” care. WPATH Standards of Care Version 8 explicitly include guidance relevant to nonbinary individuals.

How Common Nonbinary and Trans Identities Are

Here are some important numbers in the United States:

• Adults, overall: According to the Pew Research Center, 1.6% of U.S. adults are transgender or nonbinary. Younger adults report higher shares.
• Within LGBTQ adults: The Williams Institute reports that about 11% of LGBTQ adults identify as nonbinary, with most nonbinary LGBTQ adults aged 18 to 29. The Williams Institute also reports socioeconomic indicators.
• High school students: The CDC notes that in the 2023 national YRBS, 3.3% of U.S. high school students identified as transgender, and 2.2% were questioning.

On the international level, numbers are a bit different:

• England and Wales: According to the Census 2021 data, 0.5% of adults reported a gender identity different from the sex registered at birth.
• Canada: According to statistics, 0.14% of people aged 15+ identified as nonbinary, 0.19% as transgender, with two-thirds of trans or nonbinary people under 35.

Selected Prevalence Figures

Lived Experience Indicators

• Socioeconomic strain: The Williams Institute reports high rates of financial hardship among nonbinary LGBTQ adults, including difficulty making ends meet and income below 200% of the federal poverty level.
• Exposure to victimization: The same report documents elevated rates of bullying, emotional abuse in childhood, and assault in adulthood among nonbinary respondents.
• School climate: GLSEN’s National School Climate Survey details policy coverage and the availability of affirming resources for transgender and nonbinary students.

Mental Health Evidence

Mental health outcomes among nonbinary individuals reflect both internal resilience and the effects of external stress. Research highlights disparities in access to care, elevated distress linked to discrimination, and measurable benefits from affirmation and social support.

Population-Level Survey Signals

• Youth mental health access: In a national sample of nearly 34,000 LGBTQ youth, 60% who wanted mental health care could not access it, including nearly 3 in 5 transgender and nonbinary youth, as per The Trevor Project.
• Pronoun respect and suicide attempts: Transgender and nonbinary youth who reported that all people they live with respect their pronouns reported lower rates of suicide attempts compared with those whose pronouns were not respected.

Peer-Reviewed Studies

• Chosen name use: Using a chosen name across multiple contexts is associated with lower depressive symptoms, less suicidal ideation, and fewer suicide attempts among transgender youth, according to the research.
• Systematic review and meta-analysis: Studies show that nonbinary youth show poorer general mental health compared to both transgender and cisgender peers, highlighting distinct needs. 2024 review in a peer-reviewed journal.
• Minority stress and health services: Recent studies emphasize healthcare discrimination and gender-minority stress as predictors of worse mental health among transgender, gender diverse, and nonbinary adults, with calls for intersectional, longitudinal research.
