Let's spark a debate on genderfluidity etc ovo

As I've understood it, genderfluidity has everything to do with how to present oneself in a social setting. So if you wear what's generally seen as masculine and speak generally masculine you identify as male, but the other day you might wear femme and identify as female

I see this as **problematic**(lol crucify me) to say the least, because I advocate fashion and hobbies etc to not be gendered. I like wearing baggy clothes and flannels, but that doesn't mean I identify as a dude. Genderfluids on the other hand seem to have the opinion that to wear what's generally seen as masculine, you need to have a masculine gender identity. To me this is destructive and counter-productive, and it takes us back to the times where women needed to wear dresses etc, only in a very tumblr sort of fashion.

What's your opinion on fashion and gender? Are you genderfluid? Am I a complete idiot and jackass? I would love to hear people's opinions on this! (=・ω・=)

I'm not genderfluid so I'm not saying this from first hand experience, but from how my genderfluid friends explain and present themselves it's not so much about the clothing and outward appearance for them as much as how they feel gender-wise that day. On days when they feel more masculine they might wear clothes that are designed for men, and on ...... 1 reply

Hi I'm genderfluid! I don't know where you got that information but its all wrong! Lets throw out the stereotypes and start from the bottom~ Genderfluid is a type of non-binary identity. For me, my gender flows up and down the gender spectrum. There are days where I am masc, femme or neutral. These periods usually last between 1-8 days. It's like ...... 3 reply

Well, you succeeded in triggering the History Major and be warned that this comment is long and letters of words are being sent to the next line: My understanding is that, in a society where certain clothing is simply gendered or geared towards one sex or the other, being genderfluid shouldn't be an issue and it really ain't no one's business what...... reply

lol don't worry, if people call you an idiot and jackass then remember that you're not alone. I completely agree with what you said. Let's look at drag queens for example: they are guys who like to dress up in clothes considered female by society. That doesn't actually mean they are genderfluid though, it just something they do for fun. And even if...... 2 reply

I think I am genderfluid? I don't really like to put words on to it because?? I don't need words to be who I am and I don't like to be categorized.. At all. In anything. But I identify myself as female or male whenever I feel like it. It can change in minutes. I begin a conversation identifying me as a male and end it identifying me as a female. A...... reply

I'm genderfluid and I don't do this at all. For example, I identified as masculine the other day but still wore a crop-top. I hate genderroles so I just do what I'm comfortable with. Some days that might mean that I wear so labeled 'masculine' clothing but that doesn't mean that I identify as masc that day. I guess it's different for anyone. I don'...... reply
