Demigender individuals may identify as another gender in combination with this term, such as demigender and [[bigender]]. Demigender can also be an identity in of itself, which includes individuals who feel a partial connection to the concept of gender, rather than being connected to a specific gender/group of genders (see demiboy, demigirl and similar). Demigender individuals often identify as [[non-binary]] and may additionally identify as [[transgender]], though not always. Demigender individuals can also be [[transmasculine]], [[transfeminine]], something else or neither.
Being demigender does ''not'' necessarily mean that one is partially a given gender and partially [[agender]]. One can be, for example, a demiboy and a demigirl at the same time, meaning part of one's gender is boy and the other part is a girl. The "other part" of one's gender can be any gender or combination of genders.▼

== History and coining ==
It is unknown who coined the term originally, however it has been around since at least 2010<ref>https://www.asexuality.org/en/topic/52633-transwhatevers-of-aven/page/728/?tab=comments#comment-1733127</ref>. It is likely that the term was coined much earlier.
The prefix 'demi-' means 'half' or partial' and originates from Latin<ref>https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/demi</ref>. It being at the beginning of the term implies the partial connection to gender(s) and/or the concept of it.
In 2021, an Instagram user known by the name of bluebolt712 made December 15th a Demigender Awareness and Pride day.<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/CXgI9g6umH1/</ref>
