'''Gender Modality''' refers to the correspondence (or lack thereof) between one's [[Assigned gender|assigned gender at birth]] and ones actual gender and/or gender presentation. The two primary, and most well known gender modalities are [[cisgender]] and [[transgender]]. However, those are not the only possible relations for one to have. Gender modality is an open-ended category which welcomes the elaboration of further terms. | '''Gender Modality''' refers to the correspondence (or lack thereof) between one's [[Assigned gender|assigned gender at birth]] and ones actual gender and/or gender presentation.
