Use the preferred terminology of the person/people with whom you are interacting. This list represents common usages and meanings of these terms within communities, but is neither exhaustive  \nnor universal.  \nBi-gendered: One who has a significant gender identity that encompasses both male and female. Some may feel that one gender or another is stronger, but both sides are there.  \nBisexual: A term used to indicate attraction or potential for attraction to more than one gender.  \nButch or Stud: An identity term most frequently used by people with a more masculine gender identity and/or gender presentation  \nCisgender: A term for people whose gender identity, expression, or behavior matches those typically associated with their assigned sex at birth.  \nComing Out: The process by which a person begins to self-identify as gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, transsexual, or queer. Coming out can happen over a long or short period of time and at different levels (i.e. a person may be out to their friends, but not to their family) .  \nCross-dresser: A term for people who dress in clothing traditionally or stereotypically worn by the other sex, but who generally have no intention to live full-time as the other gender.  \nDown Low (DL) : A controversial term describing the phenomenon of MSMs (men who have sex with men) who publicly identify as heterosexuals and maintain sexual relationships with women,“The Down Low” has become synonymous with sensationalized claims that MSMs are spreading HIV into “the general population.” Avoid inaccurate suggestions that “The Down Low” is a phenomenon exclusive to communities of color. In general, the more accurate descriptor is MSM, which should be reserved for clinical or statistical contexts. Only use the term “Down Low” to describe men who self-identify that way.  \nDrag King: Refers to women who dress as men (often celebrity men) for the purpose of entertaining others at bars, clubs, or other events.  \nDrag Queen: Refers to men who dress as women (often celebrity women) for the purpose of entertaining others at bars, clubs, or other events. It is also used as slang, sometimes in a derogatory manner, to refer to all transgender women.  \nDyke: Historically, this term was used to refer to lesbians or women who were less feminine than people believed they should be. Originally meant to be a slur, it has been \"reclaimed\" by many lesbians.  \nFag/Faggot: Historically, the term was used to refer to men who were seen as less masculine than people believed they should be and has become the slur most commonly used to abuse gay men and men perceived to be gay. The term has also become a general insult that is often used to humiliate any men. However, it is also been “reclaimed” by many gay men.  \nFemme: An identity term most frequently used by people with a more feminine gender identity and/or gender presentation.  \nFTM: A person who has transitioned from “female-to-male,” meaning a person who was  \nassigned female at birth, but now identifies and lives as a male. Also known as a “transgender”  \nman.  \nGay: Term most commonly used by male-identified people who are primarily or exclusively attracted to other male identified people. Preferred self-identifier for many homosexual men and women. Also a term used to describe the LGBT community. Some men who have sex with men do not identify as gay.  \nGender: The set of meanings assigned by a culture or society to someone's perceived biological sex. Gender is not static and can shift over time. Gender has at least three parts:  \na) Physical Markers-Aspects of the human body that are considered to determine sex and/or gender for a given culture or society, including genitalia, chromosomes, hormones, secondary sex characteristics, and internal reproductive organs.  \nb) Role/Expression-Aspects of behav","cbCaiestXbflJsMX","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiestXbflJsMX","pdf",111988,"English","# Terms and definitions\n## Identity and orientation\n## Gender, expression, and roles\n## Coming out and related concepts\n## Health and respectful language","[{\"question\":\"How does the document explain “Gender” and its components?\",\"answer\":\"It defines gender as meanings assigned by culture or society and says it has at least three parts: physical markers, role/expression, and identity.\"}]","Some Definitions for the LGBTQ+ Community - and Allies | PDF",1790636676]
