TIL genderfluid can also mean “female from the waist up, male from the waist down”

TIL genderfluid can also mean “female from the waist up, male from the waist down” - Beehaw

Or vice versa, etc. with some caveats (see below). As per the Wikipedia article on gender fluidity [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gender_fluidity]: > A genderfluid person may fluctuate among different gender expressions over their lifetime, or express multiple aspects of various gender markers simultaneously. As I understand it, these gender markers might not be the same as sexual characteristics. For example, a person with feminine clothing and a penis could be a trans woman or femboy depending on what traits they consider defining of their gender, and might be intersex or not. They can find terms like “nonbinary” and “genderfluid” derogatory, especially if they encompass a trait they are indifferent to, dysphoric or sensitive about. Am I wrong about something here?

He said other flags would also come down for consistency. > > Backlash from Philz Coffee’s workers and customers was swift. An online petition expressing opposition to the policy, which appeared to be started by company baristas, racked up more than 7,300 signatures. The company has built a reputation on being an ally to the LGBTQ+ community. outside of building marked ‘department of education’
