Full origin of gender fluid →Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between gender fluid and non-binary?
Non-binary is the umbrella term for any gender identity that is not exclusively male or female. Gender fluid is one identity under that umbrella, defined by the identity changing over time rather than sitting at one fixed point. Every gender fluid person is non-binary, but not every non-binary person is gender fluid.
What is the difference between gender fluid and gender neutral?
Gender fluid describes a person whose gender identity shifts. Gender neutral describes things — language, toilets, clothing, policies — designed not to be associated with any gender. One is an identity, the other is a design or wording choice.
What pronouns do gender fluid people use?
It varies. Some use they/them consistently, some switch between he, she and they as their identity shifts, and some use neopronouns. The reliable approach is to ask, or to use whatever the person has stated.
