    Qirl is a [[gender identity]] for black [[transgender]] [[nonbinary]] people. A self-identified qirl called vmerli described it as "A black identity similar to girl but separate from the white/western gender binary."<ref>{{cite web|title=Gender identities I thought more people should know about|date=6 June 2015|url=http://vmerli.tumblr.com/post/120861258933/gender-identities-i-thought-more-people-should|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180902182101/https://vmerli.tumblr.com/post/120861258933/gender-identities-i-thought-more-people-should|archive-date=2 September 2018}}</ref> Vmerli drew inspiration for the term from African American Vernacular English (AAVE). It is similar to the [[boi]] identity. Transgender people who use the term to refer to themselves use pronouns of any kind, regardless of gender. People who tend to use 'qirl' as a gender identity in itself are usually nonbinary girls or [[feminine]].
     
    Feminine nonbinary people who aren't black shouldn't call themselves qirls, and instead should think about other identity labels for themselves, such as [[demigirl]] or [[femme]].
