Non-binary gender identities
STACHOVÁ, Kateřina
The main aim of this bachelor thesis is to introduce the notion of non-binary gender identities. The paper is divided into two sections, theoretical part and empirical part. The theoretical part defines the basic concepts such as sex, gender, gender identity, cisgender, transgender and explores the development of gender identity. This is followed by the introduction of the topic of non-binary gender identities, its history and its diagnostic classification. Subsequently the author describes the evolvement of non-binary gender identities, description on gender expression and dysphoria, social climate and sexual preferences. Finally, the theoretical part summarises the professional care of these individuals. In the empirical section the author describes and analyses how non-binary individuals perceive and experience gender, and other aspects related with this identity, such as the development of awareness of non-binary gender identity, means of expression of non-binary gender identity, gender dysphoria and finally how it impacted their life. The author collected data through in-depth semi-structured interviews that have been analysed by using an open and thematic coding. The research consists of 6 individuals that either identify as non-binary or their identity falls under non-binary gender identities. The results have been presented in both, individual case reports as well as inter-case comparisons. From the data collected it is possible to say that non-binary gender individuals have a fluid perception of gender; they feel the pressure of the society and its need to classify individuals; the development of the non-binary gender identity is more flexible, it does not follow a simple linear line; the realisation of this identity is dependent on previous knowledge about non-binary gender identities; the coming out occurs primarily between friends; the most commonly perceived manifestation of identity is the use of language; the most valuable positive reaction is the support of friends and family in the form of respecting and using their preferred pronouns and preferred way of addressing them; the worst negative reaction is the non-recognition of their identity; gender dysphoria is linked with the physical aspect and body parts, language expression of people surrounding them and with sex; non-binary individuals perceive the benefits of their identity positively.
