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>
