Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between bigender and genderfluid?

Bigender means a person's identity takes in two specific genders. Genderfluid means a person's gender moves and changes over time, and it is not limited to two. Someone can be both if their identity shifts between exactly two genders.

Is bigender the same as bisexual?

No. Bigender describes a person's own gender identity, while bisexual describes who they are attracted to. A bigender person may be of any sexual orientation.

Is bigender part of being non-binary?
