    '''Cusper''' is an identity defined by feeling like one is on the "cusp" between being [[transgender]] and a [[Gender Non-Conforming|gender non-conforming]] [[cisgender]] individual, or between [[Binary Genders|binary genders]] in general. For example, feeling like one's experiences and feeling towards their [[gender]] falls between being a trans [[man]] and a [[butch]] [[lesbian]].

    One might not feel like either label solely defines them and their experiences, like both identities are important to them and inseparable to each other, like their identity encompasses elements of the traditional definition of both labels, or like their identity exists at the intersection of both experiences.

    It should be noted that this term was originally popularized by [[TERF]]s, but as the definition is neutral in nature, it can be considered a reclaimed term. The term [[evenic]] was coined as an alternative to cusper due to the latter being uncomfortable for some.

    A definition for non-binary cusper is an identity for someone feeling their experience cusps between a gender identification and a gender quality, leading for a possible identity combination (e.g. cusping between a [[twink]] woman and [[neutrois]]; in between [[maverique]] and [[femme]] man).<ref>https://beyond-mogai-pride-flags.tumblr.com/post/629710477453361152/nonbinary-cusper-pride-flag</ref> An example of a [[transhet]] cusper can be a transfeminine [[bear]] [[duaric]].<ref>https://beyond-mogai-pride-flags.tumblr.com/post/627186068080541696/hetero-cusper-flag</ref>

    [[Lesboy]]s and [[Futch Otter|futch otters]] can be examples of cusping experiences.
