− | Gender dysphoria is a discomfort with your gender identity, expression, genitalia, or body parts that come along with puberty such as breasts. A way you can treat this by transitioning. Transitioning is when you change your name, pronouns, gender expression, or various medical procedures to help you feel more comfortable in your body. If you can’t afford/don’t want to take hormones, I will give you a guide to transition. |

Revision as of 12:57, 21 October 2020
A demigirl (also called a demiwoman, demilady or a demifemale person) is a gender identity describing someone who partially, but not wholly, identifies as a woman, girl or otherwise feminine, whatever their assigned gender at birth. They may or may not identify as another gender in addition to feeling partially a girl or woman.
Demigirl can be used to describe someone assigned female at birth who feels barely connected or disconnected to that identification, but usually, does not experience a significant enough dissociation to create real physical discomfort or dysphoria. Demigirl can also describe someone assigned male at birth who is transfeminine but not wholly binary-identified, so that they feel more strongly associated with "female" than "male," socially or physically, but not strongly enough to want to identify as a woman. Demigirls may also identify as demigender, non-binary and/or transgender.

The white represents gender neutrality or a questioning and shifting of gender. The pink represents the traditional color used for femininity. The shades of grey indicate the partial nature of the gender.
