Gender identity

Your gender identity refers to how you feel inside. Your inner feeling can be masculine, feminine, both or neither. When someone feels both male and female or neither, the person may identify as non-binary. If someone is born with the female or male sex and also feels female or male, we call it cisgender. Transgender people feel that the sex they were born with does not match how they identify, behave and feel. Your gender identity can also change over time; this is called gender fluidity
