Custodioboy

A custodioboy (also known as custodioman) is someone who is observed as a boy and therefore becomes one. This is a type of custodiogender, which is a mutogender and can be a condigender. The opposite of custodioboy is custodiogirl.

This usually describes someone who is genderfluid and fluctuates between being observed as/being a boy and other genders (e.g. agender, xenogenders, female, demigirl, etc). However, this term is also inclusive of genderflux individuals, specifically boyflux individuals, who always remain mia-spec a type of mingender/solarian. This can describe someone who is usually libramasculine, a para-boy or a demi-boy who becomes 'more boy' or 'fully boy' once observed. This would also be custodioflux.

Custodioboy experiences include:


 * feeling like a 'real boy' around certain people/family. This can include non-binary men who feel more male out of non-binary spaces or vice versa.
 * pretending to be a boy for others, and then actually becoming one.
 * long-term gender shifts related to presentation/how others perceive their presentation.
 * feeling a mingender differently when unobserved than with other people.
