[[Claude Cahun]] was a surrealist artist whose works encompassed writing, photography, and theatre. Cahun is most remembered for highly staged self-portraits and tableaux. Cahun and their life partner Marcel Moore were both Jewish, both had adopted these gender-neutral names, and they both often collaborated together in their art. In WWII, the couple engaged in resistance work and activism against the Nazis during the German occupation of France. The couple dressed up and attended many German military events in Jersey, strategically placing anti-Nazi fliers in soldier's pockets, on their chairs, and in cigarette boxes for soldiers to find. In 1944, Cahun and Moore were arrested by the Nazis and sentenced to death, but the sentence was never carried out as the island was liberated from German occupation in 1945.<ref name=":1" >{{Cite journal|last=Andersen|first=Corinne|date=2005|title=Que me veux-tu?/ What do you want of me?: Claude Cahun's Autoportraits and the Process of Gender Identification|url=|journal=Women in French Studies|volume=13|pages=37–50|via=Project MUSE}}</ref>

*'''Gender:''' [[genderfluid]]. "Styling is so important to me as a genderfluid person, to be able to say “I’m a very flaming flammable guy”... it’s just very satisfying, ’cause that’s how I see myself, but I know it’s not necessarily how other people see me – they still call me ‘ma’am’ and stuff like that."<ref name="OFlynn">{{Cite web |title=Get to know Dorian Electra, the Liberace of fantasy pop music |last=O'Flynn |first=Brian |work=Dazed |date=25 April 2019 |access-date=25 April 2020 |url= https://www.dazeddigital.com/music/article/44167/1/dorian-electra-new-song-video-flamboyant-interview}}</ref>

 

The [[Public Universal Friend]] was a genderless evangelist who preached in the early eastern United States. The Public Universal Friend's theology was broadly similar to that of orthodox Quakers, attracting many followers who became the Society of Universal Friends. The Friend persuaded followers who owned slaves to free them. The followers of the Society included people who were black, and many unmarried women who took on prominent roles in their communities which were usually reserved for men.

 

* '''Pronouns:''' [[English neutral pronouns#No pronouns|No pronouns]]. The Friend asked not to be referred to with gendered pronouns. Followers respected these wishes, avoiding gender-specific pronouns even in private diaries, and referring only to "the Public Universal Friend" or short forms such as "the Friend" or "P.U.F."<ref name="Juster-MacFarlane-27-28 Brekus-85 etc">Juster & MacFarlane, ''A Mighty Baptism'', pp. 27-28; Brekus, p. 85</ref>
