Gender nonconforming refers to individuals whose
gender expression differs from societal expectations associated with their
assigned sex at birth. This term encompasses a wide range of gender identities
and expressions, including those who do not identify strictly as male or
female, as well as those who may express themselves in ways that blend or move
between traditional gender norms.
Gender nonconforming people may present
themselves through clothing, hairstyles, behaviors, and interests that do not
fit typical masculine or feminine stereotypes. They might use pronouns like
they/them or others that best reflect their identity.
Being gender nonconforming does not necessarily
imply a specific sexual orientation, and it is distinct from being transgender,
though there can be overlap. The key aspect of being gender nonconforming is
the individual's rejection of conventional gender roles and their expression of
gender in a way that feels authentic to them. This diversity in gender
expression contributes to a broader understanding and acceptance of gender
diversity in society.
