*I've heard Xジェンダー used...

I see ノンバイナリー gets more hits on twitter.

I assumed that "Xジェンダー" was a somewhat dated term that will soon be superseded by ノンバイナリー (if it hasn't happened already). I've encountered ノンバイナリー in writing on more than one occasion and I suspect it's the preferred term among LGBT communities in Japan.

What's the point of the xref? I've heard ジェン
ダー used in Japanese but never ノンバイナリー so 
if the intention is for it to be interpreted 
as "more commonly as", I'm not sure that's 
correct.
