{{Personal story
| quote = <span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">There's a real pressure on nonbinary folks to present a front of absolute security and certainty about their identities. You have to project confidence at all times, so no one ever has the space to question your gender. And I think that's too bad, really, because we run the risk of putting more importance on certainty than we do on exploration. The only times we can be vulnerable is with other queer people, who understand that gender is a journey and a process.</span>

'''Genderqueer''', also called '''GenderQueer''' or '''gender queer''', is an umbrella term that refers both to non-normative [[Gender Identity|gender identity]] and [[Gender Expression|gender expression]]. The label may also be used by individuals wishing to identify as holding queer or non-normative gender without being any more specific about the nature of their gender.
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
As an umbrella term, Genderqueer has a similar scope to [[nonbinary]], with many nonbinary-identifying individuals also considering themselves genderqueer. However, the terms have different historical scopes and connotations. The word genderqueer was used at least ten years before nonbinary.
</div>

==История==

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
Genderqueer was coined in the 1990s as 'Gender Queer,' and was for a time written as 'GenderQueer' before becoming a single word. The original meaning was literally queer gender, including anyone who felt the way they experienced or expressed gender was queer. The term carries the non-normative and anti-assimilationist connotations of the [[Queer Movement]] and applies these to gender rather than sexuality.
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
A 1990 book titled "The Welcoming Congregation Handbook" defined "Gender Queer" as "A person whose understanding of her/hir/his gender identification transcends society's polarized gender system".<ref>{{cite book|title=The Welcoming Congregation Handbook |page=120 |publisher=Unitarian Universalist Association |date=1990 |last=Alexander |first=Scott W. |edition=2nd}}</ref>
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
Another early usage of the term was by [[Riki Anne Wilchins]] in the Spring 1995 newsletter of [[Transexual Menace]]:

[http://www.myhusbandbetty.com/2003/10/19/riki-wilchins-on-the-tg-spectrum/ Riki Wilchins' essay] from the 2002 anthology ''[[Books|GenderQueer]]'' describes how the original 'Gender Queers' adopted the label because the intended-to-be-inclusive umbrella term [[transgender]] had begun to be most strongly associated with [[transsexual]], [[gender binary]] identified and medically [[transition]]ing people, pushing out those who did not fit this dominant [[transgender narrative]].
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
By 1999/2000, online communities such as the [[Sphere mailing list]] were using the term genderqueer as an umbrella to unite a number of [[nonbinary]] gender identities and identifications that are now thought of as under the nonbinary umbrella. Over the next decade, 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. However both uses are still visible in different online and in person communities.
</div>

==Разница между гендерквирностью и небинарностью==

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
Genderqueer means non-normative or ''queer'' gender while [[nonbinary]] means gender that falls outside the [[gender binary]] model. Both of these terms are extremely similar in scope, however in practice their connotations are significantly different.
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
Genderqueer comes with the anti-assimilationist political connotations of [[queer]], which is a reclaimed slur word with strong associations with a countercultural sexuality movement that sets itself apart from the mainstream [[LGBT]] community. (Note that the word "queer" is still actively used as a pejorative and hate speech in many regions.) As such genderqueer implies a similar counterculture, setting itself apart from mainstream [[transgender]] discourse. Most genderqueer people also consider themselves to be queer and there is a strong trend of rejecting the gender binary and normative [[gender roles]] with in the Queer Movement as a whole.
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
By contrast, nonbinary is more politically neutral in its connotations. Nonbinary was coined as a descriptive term, originally simply 'nonbinary gender', used to describe the range of experiences that fall outside of the binary gender model. There is no countercultural anti-transgender discourse connotation, nor is there a connotation of association with the wider Queer Movement. Nonbinary is intended to simply cover the widest range of identities and experiences without intending to describe their political or cultural philosophies and affiliations.
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
===Observed differences between people who hold each identity===
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
While genderqueer and nonbinary are theoretically extremely similar in their scope as umbrella terms, in practice genderqueer slants more towards those who identify as queering gender while nonbinary tends to attract those who hold specific [[trans*]] or [[transgender]] identities that fall outside of the gender binary.
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
Genderqueer-identified people seem to be more likely to hold [[binary gender]] identities (eg, 'Genderqueer Woman') while considering their [[gender expression]] or [[gender performance]] to be queer or non-normative, while nonbinary-identified people are more likely to consider their [[gender identity]] (or lack of gender identity) to fall outside of the binary.{{citation needed}} Genderqueer-identified people seem to be more likely to consider themselves to be queer or a member of the queer community.
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
Nonbinary-identified people generally seem more comfortable with considering themselves transgender and more likely to use the language of [[gender dysphoria]]. The adoption of the term 'nonbinary' by parts of the genderqueer community may reflect a trend of adopting the language of the transgender rights movement in order to make use of and expand on the legal protections now afforded to transgender people in some localities. Nonbinary-identified people may be more likely to be seeking access to transgender medical care or legal recognition (aka [[transition]]).
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
Some nonbinary people reject the term genderqueer as an umbrella term because they are offended to be associated with queer sexuality, or still see queer as an offensive word.
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
Despite these trends and connotations, both terms are used by some members of each group and so may be considered as wide inclusive umbrella terms. Some genderqueer-identified people have sought 'transition', some nonbinary-identified people hold binary gender identities and consider themselves to be nonbinary by gender expression, and it is currently common for nonbinary-identified individuals to also identify as genderqueer (especially as this term predates nonbinary by at least a decade).{{citation needed}}
</div>

==Трансгендерны ли гендервкиры?==

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
There is controversy within the genderqueer community over whether genderqueer people fall under the [[transgender]] umbrella. Despite the work of [[Leslie Feinberg]] in the 1990s to coin transgender as a wide and inclusive umbrella term covering all forms of ''transgressive gender'', the term genderqueer developed out of a frustration with the association between transgender and [[Transsexual|transsexualism]], [[gender dysphoria]] and the dominant [[transgender narrative]].{{citation needed}}
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
It is common for genderqueer-identified people to consider trans and [[transgender]] to be synonymous with [[transition]] and so to claim genderqueer as a non-transgender identity. This is especially true with people who are genderqueer by gender expression only, but also applies to some genderqueer people who are comfortable with their body and see transgender as synonymous with bodily gender dysphoria.{{citation needed}}
As such, it is important when talking about genderqueer and nonbinary people to recognise that not all people who hold these identities consider themselves to fall under the transgender umbrella.
