'''Androgyny''' is a wide category of [[gender expression]] that either mixes or omits markers of both [[gender expression#Feminine|feminine]] and [[gender expression#masculine|masculine]] gender expression. This can include [[vocal androgyny]], androgyny in [[clothing]] (such as [[genderfuck]]), and other forms of presentation and expression seen as androgynous. A person who looks androgynous may or may not intend to look so.

A person who is transgender androgynous, also known as ''trans andro'', is a [[nonbinary]] [[transgender]] person who is androgynous and also may wish to [[transition]] to their desired body type. Trans andro people may or may not experience [[gender dysphoria]], and may or may not perceive their gender as separate or more specific to other similar nonbinary identities.


Trans androgynous people may or may not lean more toward a traditional masculine or feminine presentation as opposed to fully gender-neutral presentation. A trans andro person feels that their androgynous behaviour, personal identity, and/or presentation is a more specific identity from other nonbinary and transgender identities. Their pronouns vary per person, but typically a trans andro person rejects the pronouns given to them at birth in favour of other options.
