'''Voltegender''' (also known as '''Curvagender''') is a [[Gender Modality|gender modality]] where
* Trans people who wish to be
* Trans people who feel trans is just a modifier to their gender or is irrelevant to them and prefer
* Trans people who no longer feel [[dysphoria]]
* Trans people who have completed their
* Trans people who do not like the label trans and/or are not proud to be trans and prefer to be seen as/considered cis.
It is important to note that this is ''not'' a transgender individual ''identifying'' as cisgender (as cisgender is identifying as ones gender at birth, and if one doesn't identify as their assigned gender, you can't fit the cisgender label) but rather feeling as though the term cisgender is closer to their gender experience than trans is. This term also cannot be used by detransitioners, as they identify as the gender they were assigned at birth.
This is not to be confused for labels like [[MtM|MTM]] or [[FtF|FTF]] where one has always felt they have been one gender despite their body's appearance/characteristics, and may still identify as trans.

The term voltegender came from the French word volte-face which means "''an act of turning around so as to face in the opposite direction''" while the term curvagender is based off of the Latin word for curve, as in turning back to a cisgender identity.
