Media Representation
As of 2019, media representation and visibility of non-binary individuals continue to increase. Many celebrities who identify as non-binary have shared their gender identity through various platforms. Celebrities who identify as non-binary include songwriter Sam Smith and actor Amandla Stenberg. See list of people with non-binary gender identities.

Healthcare
As healthcare practitioners, it is important to ask patients for their preferred name and pronouns instead of drawing conclusions based on personal assumptions. One of the challenges and discomfort non-binary individuals face in seeking gender-affirmative care result from being misgendered by healthcare providers and staff. If a mistake is made, a sincere apology and willingness to learn from the mistake is crucial. For these reasons, it is important for gender identity information to be collected and updated throughout their care.

Non-binary patients often face healthcare barriers similar to and different from those of transgender patients. Some non-binary individuals encounter misgendering, structural discrimination, or identity erasure by healthcare providers and surgeons for not falling under the gender binary categorization or not wishing to transition.

For non-binary patients initiating hormone therapy, health care professionals such as endocrinologists serve an important role in monitoring medication side effects and addressing lifestyle risk factors.

Cross-orientation
Asexual individuals experience little to no sexual attraction (see gray asexuality and demisexuality)

found recent articles but not systemic reviews/meta-analysis publications  for cross-orientation

Section on sexual orientation and asexuality
The first two sentences of this section require revision -- the broken citation link provided for "Bogaert 2012, p.14" is incomplete, and upon locating this reference, the wording provided by the previous editor is too similar to the original publication. In addition, the two references for the third sentence are unavailable, so this sentence will also be removed.

Suggested revision: Publications investigating the relationship between sexual orientation and romantic orientation are limited. Difficulties in collecting information result from survey participants having difficulty identifying or distinguishing between sexual and romantic attractions.
