Nonbinary Gender: Sometimes a Compromise in Multiple Personality 


Multiples with both male and female alternate personalities may appear unisex or nonbinary as a compromise (2, pp. 110, 120)Of course, people who have multiple personalities, whether or not they appear nonbinary, are not mentally ill, unless it causes them clinically significant distress and dysfunction.


Added Sept. 7: When nonbinary, but not multiple personality, is recognized, the latter is being more discriminated against, as usual.
