+{: .important }
+**In the case a performer's self-identity doesn't match how they present professionally, prefer their self-identity.**
+
+---
+
+When a performer's gender identity differs from their professional designation, preference is given to their self-identity.
+
+One example would be a professionally designated female performer self-identifying as non-binary. In this case, non-binary would be the preferred designation for this performer.
