Reccugender |
Reccugender is a term for when one is unsure of their gender, but they know which gender they are not. (Example: a reccuboy would be one refusing the term ‘[[Masculine|male]]’ or ‘[[Masculine|boy]]’. One who is a reccuboy may identify with a masculine identity however, as masculinity does not equal men.) |
||
Some reccugender individuals may be uncomfortable with the terms ‘reccuboy’ or ‘reccugirl’ because it gives the illusion of implying that they identify as an alternate version of male or female. One who is uncomfortable with these terms may just use the label 'reccugender' instead. This gender can be used as a side label or a main gender. |
