Get the androgynous mug.Related Words
Traditionally, this word is defined as another word for an androgynous person, or a person with intersex genitalia. Androgyne is also a word for a non-binary gender identity that exists in the rough middle of the gender spectrum between "male" and "female" presentation and identity. Androgyne people often seek to wear androgynous types of clothes to reflect their gender. Not all Androgyne people dress this way, but it is the trend. Neutral pronouns are usually used by these people, but it is not always the case.
Androgyne is the "neither" as well as the "both" when it comes to gender identities, as to say, it is both equally feminine and masculine, while being neither of them at the same time. If the color red was the most masculine , and the color blue was the most feminine, Androgyne would be light purple. Not a perfect mix of red and blue, but there are elements of both present, while there is a third element presence that holds no heraldry to masculinity or femininity (i.e., the color white, representing "non-binary gender", making it a light purple). Roughly less than 0.1% of the current US population identify this way, but that's still a lot of people (this is a rough estimate made after observing "Transgender Population Size in the United States: a Meta-Regression of Population-Based Probability Samples" by Esther L. Meerwijk, PhD corresponding author, and Jae M. Sevelius, PhD).

Get the androgyny mug.androgyny is the physical and/or psychological state of being neither clearly male nor clearly female. it can also be used to describe some atypical combination of male and female characteristics.
if a genetic male is androgynous he will seem to possess more typically female traits, and a genetic female more typically male traits.
this can be unintentional, however, such as a boy or girl who simply has a naturally androgynous appearance, or as a result of an intersexed condition.
it is more typically a conscious decision, though, either as part of a subcultural fashion, or, for those who do not identify with any specific gender, in order to align the mind with their physical appearance. a lot of bisexual and pansexual people cultivate an androgynous appearance in order to be sexually attractive to people of any gender or sexuality.
in regards to fashion, androgyny seems to be growing in popularity amongst the younger generations, especially prevalent within the goth and alternative scenes, where effeminate androgynous males are common. this is a direct response to the masculine alpha male stereotype which is strongly rejected by a large section of the goth/alternative crowd.
