ジェンダーフルイド(Genderfluid)とは、マルチジェンダーノンバイナリートランスジェンダーの傘下のアイデンティティの一つである。ジェンダー・フルイドな個人は、異なる時期に異なるジェンダーアイデンティティを持つ。ジェンダーフルイドの人のジェンダー・アイデンティティは、一度に複数の性であり、その後全くないものに切り替わるか、単一のジェンダー・アイデンティティの間を移動するか、あるいはそれらと他の組み合わせもあり得る。あるジェンダーフルイドの人々にとって、これらの変化は1日に数回という頻度で起こり、他の人々にとっては毎月、あるいはそれ以下の頻度で起こることがある。あるジェンダーフルイドの人々は、いくつかの特定の性別、おそらくは2つほどの性別の間を定期的に移動し(これはバイジェンダーというラベルの下にも当てはまる)、一方で他のジェンダーフルイドの人々は、次にどんな気分になるのか分からないままである。

Genderfluid/ja
« 私は、女性か、男性に近いか、でも、そこまでではない、と思うようになりました。その尺度の中で自分がどこにいるのかは、さまざまです。 »
アレクス, 25歳 (ジェンダーフルイド)[1]

読みやすくするために、この記事では、流動的な性別を経験するすべての人に「ジェンダーフルイド」という言葉を使います。流動的な性別を経験する人の中には、自分自身に対して「ジェンダーフルイド」という言葉を使わない人もいる。流動的な性別を持つ人の中には、ジェンダークィアバイジェンダーマルチジェンダージェンダーフェイポリジェンダーなど、他のラベルを使う人もいる。自分のジェンダー・アイデンティティをどう呼ぶかは、それぞれの人に決定権があることを理解することが重要である。

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."[2]

「ジェンダーフルイド」という言葉は、やや異なる意味を持ちつつも、少なくとも1990年代から使われている。トランスジェンダーの提唱者であるマイケル・M・ヘルナンデスは、1996年にこう書いている。

« ジェンダー・フルイドとは、そのジェンダー・アイデンティティや表現が男性的女性的の両方を包含していることを意味する。ジェンダー・フルイディティは一般にトランスジェンダーとして知られるようになりつつある。生物学的、感情的、政治的、その他に関わらず、ジェンダーを超越する能力であり、まさに男性と女性が混在している。

1990年代から2000年代にかけては、ジェンダー・フルイドの人たちがバイジェンダージェンダークィアを名乗ることがより一般的だった可能性がある。それ以前は、クロスドレッサーを自称していたこともあり得る。

The earliest extant entry for "gender fluid" in the Urban Dictionary was added in 2007.[4]

In 2010, the Gender-Fluid community was created on LiveJournal.[5]

In 2012, JJ Poole (tumblr user thoughtstoberemembered) created what would become the most widely-used genderfluid flag.[6][7]

「Gender Fluid」は2014年にFacebookで公開された56種類の性別のうちの1つである[8]

In 2015, Dictionary.com added an entry for "gender-fluid,"[9] which it defined as an adjective meaning "noting or relating to a person whose gender identity or gender expression is not fixed and shifts over time or depending on the situation." It listed as synonyms genderfluid, gender fluid, and gender-flexible.[10]

In 2018, Washington state began to allow "X" gender markers on official documents[11], with the law stating that
« "X" means a gender that is not exclusively male or female, including, but not limited to, intersex, agender, amalgagender, androgynous, bigender, demigender, female-to-male, genderfluid, genderqueer, male-to-female, neutrois, nonbinary, pangender, third sex, transgender, transsexual, Two Spirit, and unspecified.[12] »

ジェンダー・フルイディティへの影響

« 時々、ある種の感情を抱いているとき、例えば、現在男性的である場合、「もし、このまま変わらなかったらどうしよう?"ジェンダー・フルイドじゃなくて ただのトランスボーイだったら?" と感じる。でも、いつもまた変わるし、かっこいいし、変な感じ。ただ、複雑な気持ちなんだと思います。いいことなのか悪いことなのか。わからない。 »
Starling (ジェンダーフルイド)[1]

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.[13] 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.

月経周期と性別の流動性への影響

まだはっきりとはしていないが、月経周期と相関する性別の変化は、月経中にホルモンレベルが自然に上下することによって引き起こされる可能性がある。 しかし、性自認が月経周期と一緒に動くと誤解している可能性もあり、それを確かめる唯一の方法は、毎日日記をつけることである。 そのような日記は、次のようなものである。

日付 その日のジェンダー・アイデンティティ 月経期間中の日
2013-03-09 男性 (全日) 14
2013-03-10 男性、それから女性 15

十分なデータを収集した後、存在するパターンが見えてくるはずである。 これらのパターンには、周期内の特定の日に特定の性別のように感じたり、エストロゲンなどの特定のホルモンが最も高い/低い時に特定の性別のように感じたりすることが含まれる可能性がある。 同様の表は、性自認が別のサイクルに関連しているかどうかを追跡するために使用することができる。

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."[14][15][16] Case and Ramachandran believe that when bigender people feel a change between their gender identities, it may have to do with a change in how they use parts of their brains. 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.

ジェンダー表現

ジェンダーフルイドの人々はしばしば、現在の性別が何であれ、それに合わせて性的表現を変える必要性を感じている。これは、クローゼットの中にさまざまな種類の衣服を用意して、その日の気分で女性、男性、その他の服装ができるようにすることを意味することもある。また、縛りやパッキング、人工の胸、タッキングなどを用いて一時的に体型を変えることもある。しかし、状況によっては、性別の表現を変えることができない場合もありえる。これは、変化が1日に何度も起こるから、両性具有に見えないから、あるいは、ある方法を示すと社会で安全でないと感じるからかもしれない。

ジェンダー・フルイドの人々は、必ずしもアンドロジナスに見えるわけではない。顔や体、服装が必ずしも曖昧なわけではない。

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.[17][18]

Some genderfluid people ask to be called by a different name[18] and pronouns depending on what gender they feel at a certain time. For people who switch between only two genders, this can mean switching between two names. These may be feminine and masculine versions of the same name[19] or names that don't sound similar at all.[20] They may also take a gender-neutral name that works for them at any time, either in addition to these names, or instead of them.

ジェンダー・フルイディティと解離性同一性障害

性別が流動的な人は、通常、自分にはオルターがいるとは思っていません。ほとんどのジェンダーフルイドの人は、好き嫌いは同じだが性別は違う、いつも同じ人のように感じています。 しかし、ジェンダーフルイドの人の中には、性別が変わるたびに特定のペルソナを切り替え、それぞれのペルソナには好き嫌いがある人もいます。 これは、解離と分身の存在を特徴とする障害である解離性同一性障害(DID)とは異なります。 DIDは、幼少期に起こったトラウマ的な虐待によって引き起こされることが多く、ほとんどの場合、PTSDやcPTSDと併存しています。 性別の流動性は虐待が原因ではなく、PTSDやcPTSDの人に多く見られるものでもありません。

Multiple/plural systems where some alters have different genders from the others are not automatically genderfluid. However, an individual alter can be genderfluid.

See main article: Nonbinary gender in fiction

There are many more nonbinary characters in fiction who have a gender identity outside of the binary. The following are only some of those characters who are specifically called by the words "genderfluid" or "fluid gender", either in their canon, or by their creators. At the very least, characters in this section should be known to present different gender expressions at different times, if the word "genderfluid" isn't used.

  • Brendan Chase. At the end of the novel, Freakboy, the main character, Brendan Chase identifies themselves as genderfluid. The book is primarily about their transition, and does end on a depressing note regarding their gender.
  • Alex Fierro, in Rick Riordan's Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard, is a genderfluid character who first appears in the second book and uses both he/him and she/her pronouns.
  • Tedd. El Goonish Shive includes a main character who identifies as genderfluid several years into the comic. Author Dan Shive has said that Tedd, like the author, has always been genderfluid but did not realise there was a word for it or even a concept of being nonbinary until much later in life. The comic also includes various other LGBT characters as well as shapeshifting technology.
  • Kami / Porcelain. The 'New 52' version of Secret Six introduces new character Kami / Porcelain, who is genderfluid and has been shown presenting as male, female and androgynously.
  • TOMCAT. In the video game Read Only Memories the character TOMCAT uses they/them pronouns. While it is not directly stated in-game that TOMCAT is nonbinary, artist and director John James has stated in an interview that TOMCAT "is gender fluid"[49].The game also includes other nonbinary characters, including the robot Turing and the protagonist if the player chooses so.
  • Symptoms of Being Human stars Riley Cavanaugh, a closeted genderfluid teenager. Note: the book has some possibly triggering subjects, including child abuse, transphobic violence, bullying, and suicidal thoughts.[50]
  • In The Tiger's Watch by Julia Ember, the protagonist Tashi is genderfluid and uses singular they pronouns. The author notes that "Being misgendered and forced to change their appearance in order to hide is a source of conflict in the novel. It is not the central plot conflict, though."[51]
  • Sal in Mask of Shadows and Ruin of Stars, by Linsey Miller, is genderfluid.
  • Recurring character Puck/Owen Burnett in the 1994-1997 Disney show Gargoyles was confirmed to be genderfluid and polysexual by a 2014 interview with the creative team.[52]
