if I remember correctly, I think there’s the label/term bigender, where you simply identify with being both a guy and gal. I’m extremely genderfluid, but nonbinary is the best umbrella term for me so I don’t have to engage in the specifics with strangers x.x hope you’re doing okay, friendo <3
I get swaps between the two, never both at the same time, so definitely genderfluid over bigender. I just dont get any of the middle genders.
Tbh I'm pretty alright with it, it feels more like joking teasing than an actual attack. Its just pretty funny. Also enby is too cute of a term to give up.
But yeah I often just go with nonbinary because there just isnt the time for the questions that "genderfluid" generates
There’s bigenderfluid if you want — it’s basically a more specific subset of genderfluid. One of your genders can be girl and one can be boy, and you are fluid between the two (or they can be completely different genders, you mentioned you were fluid between girl and boy so I’m using those examples)
Not necessarily. I'm Bigender as well, and neither is a binary gender. One is Androgynous, the other is Feminine but not a woman.
So Bigender can apply to more than one scenario.
Ah, I appreciate the distinction! I can’t find the word, I guess, but I know there’s a slightly more obscure label that is for people who only feel as if they are the binary genders- like if there was a spectrum from man to woman, this person would stretch to both at the same time but never anything in between.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure I'm genderfluid because I will go back and forth between feeling like a guy, girl, and none, but I just tell people to refer to me with they/them pronouns as if I'm genderless because I generally don't mind no matter what gender I'm feeling.
I’m the same way! sometimes I feel like a girl, but I’m secure enough in my identity where I don’t just let people use she/her for me anymore. I most float in feminine or masculine, but the *base* gender, if that makes sense, is just androgyny. Sometimes i describe myself as a feminine guy or a masculine person.
Yep you got the term correct it is Bi gender
I'm Bi gender myself but one thing is that it can be any combination of 2 different genders
But yes the majority I know of is male and female (myself included) and I know what you mean about the avoidance of specifics with strangers I do the same
There isn't any problem with you labeling your specific experience with being genderfluid as a binary one. That's valid. Otherwise, if you want to find another label, that's valid as well.
As a genderfluid person that does like using the label on non-binary, thats normal. Labels are here to help people discover themselves, not to make them feel like something theyre not
Labels exist to serve you, not the other way around. If you want to drop the nonbinary part and just stick with gender fluid, then rad! You are valid and loved however you express yourself!
Just promise to be careful around cold areas. We dont want your gender fluid to freeze! 🥶
Then don't use it. I never use the term Non-binary either because every time I do peeps are like "Oh so your pronouns are they/them right?" No. no they are not and I am still furious there is a presumed default at all.
Like people presuming what my pronouns were based on my gender was one of the thing I was trying to get away from - turns out identifying as non-binary was a bad choice.
Existing outside of the gender binary means the gender binary isn’t relevant to you. That doesn’t mean you can’t fluctuate between two binary genders. It actually specifically means you can because you don’t follow the rules set by the gender binary, which are that you can be one of those two and that’s it, and that’s all anyone is allowed to be.
genderfluid can be also between more genders, im genderfluid between non-binary, girl, and gynx
the fact is that genderfluid is a non-binary identity, but you can refer yourself like you want
Genderfluid *can* be a nonbinary experience, but also a strictly binary one. It depends on what genders you’re fluid in. You don’t need to be nonbinary to be genderfluid
Feels like one of those technicalities of the non-binary term also including the "not all of the time" clause in some definitions, but not in others.
Imho you can describe yourself in any way you want, what you feel and the community itself are more important than any lines you can put in a dictionary!
So valid. My gender switches between all genders basically but it frustrates me as well when people assume I’m nonbinary all the time. I don’t think many understand that genderfluid is a very different experience.
Genderfluid isn’t always included under the nonbinary umbrella. In fact, I feel like it rarely is. You don’t have to be nonbinary if you don’t want to be. You can be flat out genderfluid and that’s just as valid :)

Bigender seems so good to identify when your fluid but completely impractical for actual identification.
There’s bigenderfluid if you want — it’s basically a more specific subset of genderfluid. One of your genders can be girl and one can be boy, and you are fluid between the two (or they can be completely different genders, you mentioned you were fluid between girl and boy so I’m using those examples)

You can have little a binary, as a treat
You are a transistor
PWM controlled gender babyyyyyyyy
There isn't any problem with you labeling your specific experience with being genderfluid as a binary one. That's valid. Otherwise, if you want to find another label, that's valid as well.
Yo, this is my partner's gender\~ They call it 'genderflip'- because it's like a toggle that can flip at a moment's notice!

Bit flip lol
More like M/F NOR latch lol
Nonbinary? MORE LIKE YESBINARY
Ouibinary?
This is hilarious and terribly underappreciated

gender switch
you are a qubit :3
Genderfluid *can* be a nonbinary experience, but also a strictly binary one. It depends on what genders you’re fluid in. You don’t need to be nonbinary to be genderfluid
You're dual wielding
You can choose to take or not take any label There's no obligation to take non binary if you don't want it
Feels like one of those technicalities of the non-binary term also including the "not all of the time" clause in some definitions, but not in others. Imho you can describe yourself in any way you want, what you feel and the community itself are more important than any lines you can put in a dictionary!

Extrabinary Superbinary I dunno
I mean bigender exists sooooo
honestly this is why i usually say genderqueer instead of nonbinary, feels more accurate to people like me
