They are neither man nor woman, but still either male or female.

I have recently noticed that nonbinary want to have their cake and eat it, too, if they are female. They have moved out of the female category in all the respects this might help them (though you can't avoid sexism by transitioning unless you go the whole hog of surgeries and hormones), but still want to be counted when that benefits them. Thus we get this illogical term 'nonbinary women.' It also automatically turns all other women into 'binary women.'
