Gender-receptive (also known as smoothgender and easygendr) is a genderfluid person that experiences a low level of gender friction. Someone who is gender-receptive may also be gender-frictive, if they also can experience high levels of gender friction when switching genders. It describes how one's gender(s) behave, rather than what they are composed of.
A low level of gender friction indicates a smooth transition between genders, and can involve the following experiences/feelings:
- the old gender willingly relinquishing control for the new gender.
- not noticing a gender switch until it has already occurred.
- the melding of two genders, feeling indistinct from one another during the change, instead of at odds.
- genders being parallel as they move past each other.
- a quiet/soft/slow gender switch.
Experiences gender-receptives may feel include:
- uncertain, occasional, and/or situational gender dysphoria.
- gender questioning, feeling uncertain over what gender they currently are.
- a very nuanced understanding of their gender and the subtleties of how it acts.
- a blurring of genders, an overlapping sensation.
