    Boyflux is the feeling of being male, but when you fluctuate how much you feel like male. The umbrella term is [[genderflux]], and for feminine presenting people, the term is [[girlflux]]. How often and how much you fluctuate varies from person to person, some people change every month, and some people change throughout the day. Boyflux people can range from feeling [[nonbinary]] to [[male]] and anywhere in-between.
