In the 2000s, genderqueer developed as a standalone identity with particular (sub)cultural expectations and connotations, while the tendency to identify particular experiences under its umbrella seemed to diminish. In a 2005 [[Zines|zine,]] Rocko Bulldagger critiqued the expectations that genderqueer identity acquired in this period, observing that people in genderqueer scenes were more concerned with constructing an identity that "reject[ed] M/F" than including a wider range of people who transgressed or engaged consciously with gender. She criticized the scene's increasing unfriendliness to people outside a narrow range of embodiments and expressions. Increasingly, "genderqueer" meant white, young, female-assigned and masculine people who did not use she/her, adhered to specific fashion trends, and had not passed certain milestones in medical transition.<ref>Bulldagger, Rocko.
