'''Genderqueer''' is an [[umbrella term]] with a similar meaning to [[non-binary]]. It can be used to describe binary [[cisgender]] and [[transgender]] people within the LGBT+ community who feel that they have a queer or non-normative experience with their gender. It can also be used to describe any [[Gender Identity|gender identities]] other than [[man]] and [[woman]], thus outside of the [[gender binary]]. Genderqueer identities can include one or more of the following:

−

* A combination of genders

−

* Neither man nor woman (genderless, [[Agender]], [[Neutrois]])

−

* Moving between genders ([[Genderfluid|Gender-fluid]], [[Oriengender]])

−

* [[Third gender]] or other-gender

−

* Those who do not or cannot place a name to their gender

−

* Having an overlap or blurred lines between gender identity.

−

Some genderqueer people use that as their only description of their gender identity, while others also identify as another gender identity such as [[androgyne]], [[bigender]] etc. Genderqueer people may also identify as [[transgender]] and/or [[nonbinary]]. Some genderqueer people may wish to [[transition]], either [[Medical Transition|medically]] or by changing their [[name]] and/or [[pronouns]] to suit their preferred [[gender expression]] (or both). Genderqueer people can have any [[sexual orientation]].

−

Many genderqueer individuals see [[Differences Between Gender and Sex|gender and sex]] as separable aspects of a person and sometimes identify as a male woman, a female man, or a male/female/[[intersex]] genderqueer. Genderqueer identification may also occur for political reasons.

−

"Genderqueer", along with being an umbrella term, has been used as an adjective to refer to any people who transgress [[gender roles|mainstream distinctions of gender]], regardless of their self-defined gender identity, for example, those who "queer" gender, expressing it non-normatively. [[Androgynous]] is sometimes also used as a descriptive term for people in this category, but genderqueer is used to indicate that gender norms can be transgressed through a combination of [[masculinity]] and [[femininity]], or neither, and because not all genderqueer people identify as [[androgyne]].
