Androgyne

non-binary gender identity

Androgyne is the combination of any two genders or gender identities, usually man and woman, or genders related to masculinity and femininity, associated with androgyny.[1][2][3] Different from androgynous, it's used as a gender identity rather than being a gender expression or presentation.[4][5][6][7][8][9][10]
