In 1996, self-identified androgyne Raphael Carter proposed adopting this ambiguous geometric shape, the Necker Cube, as a symbol for androgynes, "because it is either concave or convex depending on how you look at it."

'''Androgyne''', or '''androgynous gender''', is an identity under the [[Non-Binary|non-binary]] and [[transgender]] umbrellas. Androgyne individuals have a [[Gender Identity|gender identity]] and/or [[Gender Expression|gender expression]] that can be a blend of both or neither of the [[Binary Gender|binary genders]]. They may describe this in terms of being between female and male, between man and woman, between masculine and feminine or simply 'in between.' They can also identify as neither feminine or masculine, or neither female and male.
