-'''Variant''' describes a person who does not fall into the expected cultural ideals or roles for [[gender]], [[sex]], [[Gender Presentation|gender expression]], orientation, relationships, and other related forms of self-identification. It involves not being accepted as a member of conformant society due to one’s identity differing from the one assigned to and/or expected of them. The opposite of variant is [[conformant]]. People can be variant in some areas and conformant in other areas. To specify certain subcommunities, terms like gender variant, attractional variant, relational variant, etc. can be used.
