Bigender refers to someone who identifies with two genders. A bigender person could experience these genders simultaneously, or be fluid between them.
Many bigender people are both male and female.
Other bigender people identify with another set of two genders, such as female and nonbinary, or male and nonbinary.

If someone doesn’t specify what their underlying genders are, I generally assume someone who is genderfluid is fluid between male and female, and someone who is bigender is both male and female.

A bigender person, who identifies as both a man and as a woman, discussed their experiences on YouTube.
They use the names Maya and Sebastian, depending on the gender they are at the time.

What it's like to be BIGENDER
To be clear, this is a different person than the Sebastian, who is a Trans man, who I have previously discussed on Meticulous Musings.

Genderflux refers to someone with a gender that varies in intensity over time.
Genderflux can be turned into the suffix “-flux” that can be added to create compound gender terms.
16/x
If someone has a gender that is always male, but the intensity of how strongly they experience their male gender is different at different times, they could describe their gender as boyflux or manflux.
Alternatively, they could use two words to describe their gender by saying they are male and genderflux.
17/x
If someone has a gender that is always female, but the intensity of how strongly they experience their female gender varies over time, they could describe themselves as girlflux or womanflux.
Alternatively, they could use two words to describe their gender by saying they are female and genderflux.

Some genderflux people spend part of their time feeling agender, which is to say that at those times, they feel they don’t have a gender.
But that isn’t necessarily true for everyone who is genderflux.
19/x
Some people describe themselves as both genderfluid and genderflux.
These terms can be combined together as either genderfluidflux or fluidflux.
Those who use both terms seek to convey that both their underlying gender, and the intensity of how strongly they experience their gender, changes over time.

The 2013 Gender Census had fewer respondents than any subsequent survey, and Cassian, the administrator of the Gender Census, has described the 2013 survey as, “more of a pilot survey that informed a better survey in 2015.”

This article, and most others in this series, focus on the results from 2015 to the present, although data from 2013 will be referenced when relevant.

This graph shows how genderfluid has performed in the Gender Census since 2015.
27/x
In 2015, genderfluid received 31.2%, its maximum.
Genderfluid gradually fell each year until it reached its minimum of 21% in 2019.
Genderfluid then grew until it reached 25.5% in 2023, and it has declined each year since.
In 2025, genderfluid received 24.4%.

From 2015 to 2025, genderfluid’s average has been 25.3%.

The genderfluid checkbox in the Gender Census has changed subtly over time.
In 2013, it was, “fluid gender.”
There was no Gender Census in 2014.
From 2015-17, it was, “fluid gender / genderfluid.”
From 2018- 25, it has been, “genderfluid / fluid gender.”
30/x
“Fluid gender” received 31.3% in 2013, which is only slightly more than the 31.2% its counterpart received in 2015.

This graph shows genderfluid alongside several terms that perform similarly well in the Gender Census.

Responses from the Gender Census can be used to determine the percent of respondents who chose one identity term, who also chose another identity term.
This pairing analysis can be used to better understand the relationships between identity terms in the survey.

I first discussed my pairing analysis of the Gender Census in Agender, Genderless, and Gendervoid.
In that article, I also provided a step-by-step walkthrough of how I calculated my pairing analysis results.

In this section, we will use a pairing analysis to find terms that have a majority of respondents who identify as genderfluid.
These closely-related terms, which are majority genderfluid, are part of the genderfluid family tree.
45/x
Genderfluid, genderflux, and bigender each appeared as a checkbox in the 2022 Gender Census.
Genderflux last appeared as a checkbox in 2022, and our pairing analysis will begin there.
46/x
The following table shows the overlaps between genderfluid, genderflux, and bigender in the 2022 Gender Census.
47/x
In 2022, 61.8% of genderflux respondents identified as genderfluid.
For comparison, only 24% of Gender Census respondents, as a whole, identified as genderfluid.
48/x
In 2022, 49.7% of bigender respondents identified as genderfluid.
49/x
Therefore, in 2022, a majority of genderflux respondents identified as genderfluid, and a near-majority of bigender respondents identified as genderfluid.
50/x
Next, let’s examine the overlaps between genderfluid and bigender in 2024, the last time bigender appeared in the Gender Census.
51/x
In 2024, 50.5% of bigender respondents identified as genderfluid.
For comparison, only 24.7% of Gender Census respondents, as a whole, identified as genderfluid.
52/x
Conversely, 11.7% of Genderfluid respondents identified as bigender.
53/x
Therefore, in 2024, a slight majority of bigender respondents identified as genderfluid.
54/x
Both genderflux and bigender have had a majority of respondents who have identified as genderfluid in the Gender Census.
Therefore, I consider both genderflux and bigender to be terms that are closely related to genderfluid.
Taking these majority overlaps into account, I consider both genderflux and bigender to be part of the genderfluid family tree.

Now, let’s examine the relationships genderfluid, genderflux, and bigender have with other terms in the Gender Census.
We’ll begin this wider pairing analysis by examining genderfluid in the 2025 Gender Census.
58/x
A total of 10,519 people selected genderfluid in 2025, representing 24.4% of Gender Census respondents.
59/x
69.8% of genderfluid respondents identified as nonbinary.
65.5% of genderfluid respondents identified as queer.
60/x
54.3% of genderfluid respondents identified as genderqueer.
51% of genderfluid respondents identified as gender non-conforming.
50.7% of genderfluid respondents identified as trans.
61/x
Therefore, in 2025, majorities of genderfluid respondents identified as nonbinary, queer, genderqueer, gender non-conforming, and trans.
62/x
45.8% of genderfluid respondents identified as transgender.
40.1% of genderfluid respondents selected, “a person / human / [my name] / ‘I’m just me.’ ”
Therefore, large minorities of genderfluid respondents identified as transgender and “a person…”

Section: Genderflux Pairing Analysis

Next, let’s examine genderflux in the 2022 Gender Census, the most recent survey where it appeared as a checkbox.
66/x
A total of 3,018 participants identified as genderflux in 2022, representing 7.6% of Gender Census respondents.
67/x
71.8% of genderflux respondents identified as nonbinary.
67.1% of genderflux respondents identified as queer.
61.8% of genderflux respondents identified as genderfluid.
57.4% of genderflux respondents identified as genderqueer.
54.1% of genderflux respondents identified as gender non-conforming.
Therefore, majorities of genderflux respondents identified as nonbinary, queer, genderfluid, genderqueer, and gender non-conforming.
68/x
Genderflux respondents were significantly more likely to identify as genderfluid and genderqueer, than Gender Census respondents as a whole, as you can see in the table above.
69/x
49.3% of genderflux respondents identified as enbies.
47.9% of genderflux respondents identified as trans.
44.7% of genderflux respondents identified as transgender.
Therefore, large minorities of genderflux respondents identified as enbies, trans, and transgender.
