**on the ubiquity of "enby"**
according to gender census, which surveys "people whose genders are not adequately described, expressed or encompassed by the restrictive gender binary":
[the following was not from an "either/or" question, but a "check all that apply" question]<li>~64% of respondents use the term "nonbinary"</li><li>~32% of respondents use the term "enby"</li>
[gender census: identity words](https://www.gendercensus.com/results/2023-worldwide/#identity-words )
we don't know the overlap - it could be that half of nonbinary people also use enby, or that bunches of people use enby who don't call themselves nonbinary
either way, there's a big chunk of nonbinary folks who don't call themselves enby - at least half of us
**if you're talking about the entire community or the gender category:** please consider just saying nonbinary
