 '''Gender identity''' is the experience of one's own gender, regardless of physical characteristics ([[sex]]), intentional appearance and behavior ([[gender expression]]), or [[sexual orientation]]. Most people identify as the gender that they were [[Sex#gender assigned at birth|assigned at birth]], which is called being [[cisgender]]. [[Transgender]] people don't identify as the genders they were assigned at birth.
-All societies and cultures have certain categories that people use to express their gender. In the western culture (i.e. Europe, America, Australia...) these categories are typically [[male]] and [[female]] ([[Binarism]]).  There are, however, other societies that have more than two recognized gender identities.
