Gender identity

Gender identity refers to a person's internal sense of gender, or lack thereof. Gender identity cannot be visibly observed; however, it may be conveyed through one's words and gender expression. One's gender identity may or may not align with one's sex or birth assignment. People whose gender identity aligns with their birth assignment are known as cisgender. Likewise, people whose gender identity differs from their birth assignment, either partially or completely, may identify as transgender, nonbinary, and/or with other terms. Gender identity may be binary (either male or female, wholly and exclusively), or nonbinary. There are also additional terms under the nonbinary umbrella, such as genderfluid and agender.
