History
Exobinary was coined by June 25, 2018 by Tumblr user Nbandproud.[1] The term was originally coined in order to talk about issues faced specifically by exobinary people. Exobinary issues include:
- People doubting the existence of gender identities that don’t relate to the gender binary in any way.
- People doubting or overlooking gender expressions, alignments or dysphoria that don’t fit a “male, female, masculine, feminine, or in-between those” restriction.
