Hi, I identified as Genderfluid until recently I discovered Bigender and I feel like maybe it fits me better but I'm not sure yet so I have some questions for you hat'll hopefully give me some more insight.
What's the difference between Bigender and Bigenderfluid or are they the same thing?
How can one if they only experience 2 genders or more?
How can one tell if they're how much of a certain gender they feel (Genderflux) ?
Thank you in advance.
Hi! Ill do my best to explain
1. Bigender is the experience of having two (or more, depending on the person) genders. This can be male and female or any combination of binary and nonbinary or any other genders. This can also mean they are simultanious, as in for me i feel bith like a male but also as a female. They also dont have to be the same amount (such as one is 70% and the other gender is 30%) or they can be fluid or flux (which is harder to differentiate and i will explain next) overall bigender feels like having two gendered feeling inside of you
Genderfluid is the experience of switching between genders, an example is one day someone feels female, the next day male, the next day nonbinary or other genders. They can switch genders within and hour, each day or even in years. The best way to explain it is the changing of flavours of the single gender you have
Bigender is the amount of stationary gendered feeling you have at a time whereas genderfluid is a singular gendered feeling but that gender changes flavour
Bigenderfluid is a combination of both, so instead of having two stationary genders at a time, you have two genders that change flavours, or maybe one is stationary and one changes flavour
2. Its hard to know if you experience two genders or more, honestly its just up to how you yourself interpret your feelings and how you want to define them. For me, i enjoy expressing as bith a male and female and identify with both so i declared myself to be bigender
3. Genderflux is another weird one to pin down. It is the amount of gender you feel at a time. Id say this is harder because sometimes you just dont think abiut your gender so it is hard to tell if your gender is flux or if you just dont think about it much. The most easiest blatant way to explain it i guess is if my gender is female, then at times, i feel fully female, i identify with other women and maybe i want to express femininely, but then ither times i feel less female so i feel less of a connection to that group of people, or i dont feel like expressing it as much, and then sometimes i can feel agender which means i dont feel any fendered feeling at all, so im mostly indifferent to it or i dont have a connection to other women or dont feel like them. And similarly to genderfluid, this can change between hours, minutes, days, years, whatever and is also a single gendered feeling that changes so it can be hard to tell the difference between them, that is why i identified as bignederfluid before i realised the difference in how i felt and started to identify as bigenderflux. Genderflux is a single gender that fades in and out
And again, bigenderflux is the combination of the two, so i have two stationary gendered feelings, and instead of changing flavours, they fade in and out, or someone could have one stationary gender and one that fades in and out
And of course someone could have a combination of the three, fluidflux being a single gendered feeling that changes flavour and also fades in and out etc.
Hope this helped!
