    Bisukupuoli on sukupuoli-identiteetti, joka kuuluu monisukupuolsisiin-, muunsukupuolisiin- ja transsukupuolisiin identiteetteihin. Bisukupuolisilla on kaksi erillistä sukupuolta, joko samanaikaisesti tai eriaikaisesti. Jälkimmäinen on muoto vaihtelevasta sukupuolesta. Se voi sisältää vaihtelua kahden sukupuolen välillä tai harmaata noiden kahden välillä. Nuo kaksi sukupuolta voivat olla binäärisiä, jollaiseksi bisukupuolisuus usein ymmärretään, mutta voi myös sisältää muunsukupuolisen sukupuolia. Bisukupuolisuus on American Psychologic Associationin (APA) tunnustama transukupuoli-identiteetti.

    Historia

    Vuoden 1997 dokumentti International Journal of Transgenderism -lehdessä totesi "henkilö, joka tuntee tai toimii kuin mies sekä nainen voi kokea olevansa bisukupuolinen". Dokumentti myös kuvasi henkilöitä, jotka olivat kumpaakin binääristä sukupuolta, mutta olivat "enemmän miestä kuin naista" tai "enemmän naista kuin miestä".

    Vuonna 1999 "San Francisco Department of public Healt":n tekemä kysely huomasi, kuinka transyhteisön keskuudessä alle 3% syntyessä miehiksi ilmoitetuista ja alle 8% syntymässä naisiksi merkatuista identifioi itsensä bisukupuolisiksi.

    In a 2010 encyclopedia, bigender is listed as a type of "androgyne" gender: "Androgyne identities include pangender, bigender, ambigender, nongendered, agender, gender fluid, or intergender."[1]

    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 said that "we hypothesize 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."[2][3][4] These doctors think that when bigender people feel a change between their gender identities, it might have to do with a change in how they use parts of their brains. The gender change might also have to do with one of the cycles that everyone has in their body, specifically, a valve in the nose that changes sides every two days (the nasal cycle). This is only a hypothesis, meaning that it is an interesting idea that doesn't have proof for now.

    In 2014, bigender was one of the 56 genders made available on Facebook.[5]

    In 2015, an entry for "bigender" was added to Dictionary.com,[6] defined as "a person who has two gender identities or some combination of both."[7]

    In 2017, bigender was one of the 37 gender options added to the dating network Tinder.[8]

    Gender expression

    Bigender people "move between feminine and masculine gender-typed behaviour depending on context. Some bigendered individuals express a distinctly ‘en femme’ persona and a distinctly ‘en homme’ persona […] others have shades of grey between the two."[9]
