==History==
Gender modality was a term created by Florence Ashley, a [[transfeminine]] jurist and bioethicist, some time around February 28, 2019.<ref>Ashley Florence (2019-04-08). [https://medium.com/@florence.ashley/gender-modality-proposal-for-new-terminology-d78df51b299f "Gender modality: Proposal for new terminology."] ''Medium''. Retrieved 2020-08-02.</ref> The term was coined because Ashley noted that the notion of ‘gender identity’ as used in law, perpetuates the idea that ‘gender identity’ is something only used by trans people (whereas cis people would just have 'gender'). Ashley traces this misuse of the term gender identity to fact that a conceptual category such as gender modality was not available when policymakers attempt to speak of discrimination against trans people by virtue of being not cis.
