'''Genderfluid''' is a term which refers to someone whose [[gender identity]] changes over time.
A genderfluid individual may identify as any gender identity or combination of [[gender]] identities at any given time. Their gender identity can change at random or may vary in response to different circumstances.

One's gender identity may change at different rates, possibly over the course of hours, days, weeks, months, or years. For some individuals their gender identity changes on a somewhat consistent "schedule." For others their gender identity changes inconsistently.

Some genderfluid individuals may be fluid between all gender identities, or a large number of gender identities. Others may be fluid between as few as two gender identities.

▲Genderfluid can be a [[Gender Identity|gender identity]] on its own or it can be used as an [[umbrella term]] to describe anyone whose gender changes. For example, a [[bigender]] individual who feels more strongly [[agender]] sometimes and more strongly [[xenic]] other times may identify as genderfluid.
==History==
Line 37 ⟶ 22:
<blockquote>"Gender-fluid means that their gender identity and/or [[Gender Presentation|expression]] encompass both masculine and [[feminine]]. Gender fluidity is becoming commonly known as [[transgender]]ness: the ability to transcend gender, whether biological, emotional, political, or otherwise; truly mixing male and female."<ref>Hernandez, Michael M. (1996). "Boundaries: Gender and Transgenderism". ''The Second Coming: A Leatherdyke Reader.''</ref></blockquote>The earliest recorded use of genderfluid, with a definition closer to the modern definition is in the Urban Dictionary "Gender Fluid" entry, which was added in 2007.<ref>http://web.archive.org/web/20161018191041/http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=gender+fluid</ref>
