Full origin of demigirl →Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between demigirl and genderfluid?
A demigirl's gender is stable: it is partly female and partly something else, all the time. A genderfluid person's gender shifts over time, so they might feel female one week and something different the next.
What pronouns do demigirls use?
There is no single answer. Many use she/her, many use they/them, and plenty use both together, such as she/they. The only reliable approach is to ask or to follow what the person states.
