For long, we have been conditioned to the binary forms of gender identities, it’s time that we start including and acknowledging the other genders, as more than just ‘the other gender’.
The list in no way claims to be comprehensive. There’s much more to gender identities and sexual orientation, that the ‘mainstream’ discourse remains ignorant of. However, it’s a process and we all are a work in progress.
Let us know, in case any definition ventures into problematic or is insensitive/non-inclusive. Your gender, your identity, you get to define it.
The definitions are collected from multiple sources. Sources are given below every image. | Illustration and design credits – Aakansha Pushp.
