'''Genderfluid''' aka '''Gender-fluid, Gender Fluid, or Fluid Gender,''' is an identity under the [[multigender]], [[nonbinary]], and [[transgender]] umbrellas. Genderfluid individuals have different [[Gender identity|gender identities]] at different times. A genderfluid individual's gender identity could be multiple genders at once and then switch to none at all, or move between single gender identities, or some other combination therein. For some genderfluid people, these changes happen as often as several times a day and for others, monthly, or less often. Some genderfluid people regularly move between only a few specific genders, perhaps as few as two (which could also fit under the label [[bigender]]), whereas other genderfluid people never know what they'll feel like next.

To be easy to read, this article uses the word "genderfluid" for all people who experience fluid gender. Some people who experience fluid gender don't use the word "genderfluid" for themselves. Some people with fluid genders use other labels such as [[genderqueer]], [[bigender]], [[multigender]], [[genderfae]], [[polygender]], etc. It's important to understand that each person has the right to decide what to call their gender identity.

== History ==
Kate Bornstein mentioned gender fluidity in 1994, in the book ''Gender Outlaw: On Men, Women and the Rest of Us'', "and then I found that gender can have fluidity, which is quite different from ambiguity. If ambiguity is a refusal to fall within a prescribed gender code, then fluidity is the refusal to remain one gender or another. Gender fluidity is the ability to freely and knowingly become one or many of a limitless number of genders, for any length of time, at any rate of change. Gender fluidity recognizes no borders or rules of gender."<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/gender-fluid|title=gender-fluid|website=Merriam Webster|access-date=18 June 2021}}</ref>
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
The word "genderfluid" has been in use since at least the 1990s, albeit with a somewhat different meaning. Transgender advocate Michael M. Hernandez wrote in 1996:
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">

</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
In the 1990s and 2000s, it might have been more common for genderfluid people to call themselves [[bigender]] or [[genderqueer]]. Earlier than that, they may have called themselves [[cross-dresser]]s.

== Причины гендерфлюидности ==
{{Personal story
| quote = <span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">Sometimes, when I'm feeling a certain way, like if I'm currently masculine, I wonder to myself, "What if I don't change from this? What if I'm not genderfluid and just a transboy?" But I always change again, and it's cool and weird. I guess I just have mixed feelings about it. Is it a good or bad thing? I don't know.</span>

Usually, gender fluidity happens by itself, so that a person feels like, say, a girl at a certain time, rather than choosing to be a girl at a certain time.<ref name=":1">Kat. [http://web.archive.org/web/20161013063943/http://bigender.livejournal.com/65619.html?thread=267859#t267859 http://bigender.livejournal.com/65619.html?thread=267859#t267859]</ref> Some genderfluid people find that no outside or inside things tend to influence their gender identity to change. They find that their gender fluidity is unpredictable and happens randomly. Other genderfluid people find that their gender changes depending on the situation and is influenced by inside or outside sources. Some move from one gender to the next on a regular cycle, resembling a lunar cycle, or synchronizing with their menstrual cycle.  Other genderfluid people are sometimes able to use their willpower to guide their gender to change in a way and/or at the time that they want it to.
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
==== Menstrual cycle and its effect on gender fluidity ====
While it is still unclear, changes in gender that correlate with the menstrual cycle could be caused by how hormone levels naturally rise and fall during menstruation.  However, it's also possible to mistakenly believe that gender identity moves with the menstrual cycle, and the only way to be sure is to keep a daily journal.  Such a journal could look like this:
</div>
{| class="wikitable sortable"
!Дата
!Гендерная идентичность в указанный день
!День менструального цикла
|-
|2013-03-09
|Мужчина (весь день)
|14
|-
|2013-03-10
|Мужчина, затем женщина
|15
|}
<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
After enough data is collected, any patterns that exist should become visible.  These patterns could include feeling like a certain gender during a certain day in the cycle or feeling like a certain gender at times when a certain hormone, such as estrogen, is highest/lowest.  Similar tables can be used to track if gender identity is connected to a different cycle.
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
In 2012, Case and Ramachandran gave a report on the results of a survey of genderfluid people who call themselves [[bigender]] who experience involuntary alternation between [[female]] and [[male]] states. Case and Ramachandran gave this condition the name "Alternating gender incongruity (AGI)." Case and Ramachandran made the hypothesis that gender alternation may reflect an unusual degree (or depth) of hemispheric switching and the corresponding suppression of sex appropriate body maps in the parietal cortex. They "hypothesize[d] that tracking the nasal cycle, rate of binocular rivalry, and other markers of hemispheric switching will reveal a physiological basis for AGI individuals' subjective reports of gender switches... We base our hypotheses on ancient and modern associations between the left and right hemispheres and the male and female genders."<ref>Case, L. K.; Ramachandran, V. S. (2012).

The gender change might also have to do with a natural body cycle, specifically, a valve in the nose that changes sides every two days (the nasal cycle). However, this idea is still only a hypothesis, and more study is needed to confirm it.

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
== Gender expression ==
Genderfluid people often feel a need to change their [[gender expression]] to match whatever their current gender has become. This may mean having groups of different kinds of [[clothing]] in their closet, so they can dress as a woman, man, or otherwise, depending on how they feel that day. It can also mean temporarily changing their body shape by using [[binding]], packing, breast prostheses, or tucking. However, in some situations, changing gender expression isn't possible. This could be because the changes happen more than once a day, because they don't look [[Androgyny|androgynous]], or because they don't feel safe in society if they were to present a certain way.
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
Genderfluid people don't necessarily look androgynous. They don't necessarily have an ambiguous face, body, or way of dress.
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
[[Gender dysphoria]], or feeling painfully uncomfortable about how one's body and social role don't match one's gender, isn't a requirement in order to be genderfluid. Each person is different, experiencing gender fluidity in their own way. Some genderfluid people experience [[gender dysphoria]] at times or all the time. Some want to change their bodies and some take a physical [[transition]] to do so, which may include hormones or [[surgery]]. Others don't choose to transition because any change they make to their body would only feel right to them when they were in a certain gender and would feel wrong in others. Yet others have a difficult time planning their transition path, because their feelings change about what they want.<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20161013063943/http://genderfluidprobs.tumblr.com/post/37659220000/genderfluid-problem-28 http://genderfluidprobs.tumblr.com/post/37659220000/genderfluid-problem-28] {{dead link}}</ref><ref name=":2" />

== Gender fluidity and dissociative identity disorder ==
Genderfluid people usually don't think of themselves as having alters. Most genderfluid people feel like the same person all the time, with the same likes and dislikes but a different gender.  However, some genderfluid people switch between specific personas as they change genders, and each persona has their own likes and dislikes.  This is different from Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), which is a disorder characterized by dissociation and the existence of alters.  DID is frequently caused by traumatic abuse that happens early in childhood and almost always exists alongside PTSD or cPTSD.  Gender fluidity is not caused by abuse and is not more common in people with PTSD or cPTSD.
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
Multiple/plural systems where some alters have different genders from the others are not automatically genderfluid.  However, an individual alter can be genderfluid.
