	== History ==		== History ==
	~~The word "genderfluid" has been~~ in ~~use since at least~~ the ~~1990s~~. 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~~-~~dressers~~.		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>
