thanks. i think i might be a thresinymboy, if that makes sense. which would combine these concepts you differentiated. like one facet is binary boy and the other is neo+nymboy (neonymboy? not coined anywhere yet)
Glad I could help! I will make a coining post with thresinymboy and neonymboy soon.
how does neobinary work? is this similar to nymbinary?
Hi! The definition of Neobinary (pasted from this post) is as follows:
Neobinary is described as “A gender experience that exists to reshape and redefine the gender binary. An individual who is neobinary or who considers emself to have a neobinary experience may partially or mostly relate to the gender binary but can decide that their connection to the binary is outside of conventional standards of gender categorization. This is genderqueerness and genderfuckery specifically within the scope of the gender binary.”
The definition of Nymbinary (pasted from this post) is as follows:
"Nymbinary (nymby) or abinby (abinbinary): a binary aphorian, a person who identifies as a binary in a way removed entirely from the gender binary system. It is a type of binariness that is abinary in nature (ABIN), and therefore lacks ties to the gender-binary, including a relationship to aptobinary genderedness (aptobinariness/aptobinaryness) or ambinariness/ambinaryness, (fe)maleness, (wo)manhood, boyhood/girlhood/birlhood, (fe)male-alignment, binary masculinity/femininity, and most other widespread connotations of binary-ness. Nymbinaries (nymbies) may even see their binaryhood as anonbinary or something else entirely.
Could be an umbrella for nymboy and nymgirl."
This is the first time I've heard of nymbinary, so take this with a grain of salt, but my understanding is that neobinary is a gender experience that takes the traditional gender binary (male and female) and remains connected to it, but is also fundamentally different in some way, while nymbinary is a gender that is part of a binary, but not the traditional one.
If you are coming from my thresiboy and thresigirl coining post, the definition for neoboy/neogirl is as follows:
Neoboy/neogirl is a gender with a connection to masculinity, but in a way that's largely different from how most boys/men are connected to masculinity. Neoboy/neogirl is a non-binary identity that is mostly separate from being male/female, though it can be described as a gender that is masculine/feminine-aligned, neutral-aligned, min/fingender, and/or mia/fiaspec.
Individuals who identify with neoboy/neogirl may identify with the term because:
They feel like a "new" kind or type of boy/man. They feel like they're fe/male and connected to femininity/masculinity (partially or entirely) but in a "different" way. They feel like a boy, but outside of the gender binary. Individuals who identify with neoboy/girl will also generally feel neutral-aligned in some way or in some extent as well as being masculine/feminine-aligned but this isn't always the case.
