A person or a way of thinking (that/who) feels the need to cram absolutely anything and everything into strict man vs. woman gender binaries.
Non-binary people are faced with this in culture every day.
Binarist - "There are only two genders. Now go to the store and pick me up some 'Soap for Men.'"
Person 2 - "The ingredients are exactly the same a---"
Binarist - "Get me my Soap for Men!!!"
Person 2 - "Alright then buddy."
Binarist - "If you're quick about it I'll find some girly shit for you to watch on Netflix when you get back."

This is an adjective used to indicate anything which acts as if binary genders are superior, erases people whose genders exist outside of the "binary" of men and women, and so on. The noun form is binarism. Binarism is a specific form of transphobia, which means it is a form of sexism. Due to the prevalence of additional genders in many nonwhite cultures, binarism can also be an expression of racism.
Native Hawaiians have a third gender called "Māhū" and their cultural genders are a lot more fluid than general mainland American culture. White people rejecting the existence of Māhū individuals is not only binarist, it is also a racist extension of the ongoing attempts to squash indigenous cultures.
