Gender nonconformity

Alok Vaid-Menon, a gender nonconforming writer, performance artist, and activist

Gender nonconformity or gender variance is gender expression by an individual whose behavior, mannerisms, or appearance do not match masculine or feminine gender norms. A person can be gender nonconforming regardless of their gender identity; for example, they may be transgender, non-binary, or cisgender. Transgender adults who appear gender nonconforming after transitioning are more likely to experience discrimination.
