Trigender

Trigender is a gender identity. If someone is trigendered, they move between or among male, female, and third gender. Gender is not to be confused with sex. Sex, as they say, is between the legs. Gender is between the ears. Gender-neutral pronouns, such as one, ze, sie, hir, and ey may be preferred.

Riley's sex is female, but she is trigendered. Try to keep up.

Third Gender

Third gender is a gender identity. If someone is of the third gender, they are considered neither male nor female, whether by their will or by social consensus. Not to be mistaken for third sex. Sex and gender are not synonymous. Sex refers to whether they are biologically male or female. Gender is a state of mind. One can be born female, but live as a male. This has no influence on sexual orientation, nor vice versa. Typically, those of the third gender prefer to be referred to using gender-neutral pronouns, such as one, ze, sie, hir, or ey.

Evan was born a male, but hir is third gendered.

Two-Spirit

Two-spirit is a gender identity. If someone is two-spirited, their body simultaneously houses both a masculine spirit and a feminine spirit. This idea originated with Native Americans, and can also mean that they fulfill both gender roles.

Charlie is two-spirited, it's so hard to keep up with!
