demiboydemigirl

Demiboydemigirl is a self-identification used by some people within LGBTQ+ communities to describe a blended or combined gender identity that includes elements of both demiboy and demigirl. The term typically signals a partial alignment with both male and female identities, or a sense of gender as a mixture rather than a fixed binary or single category.

To understand demiboy and demigirl separately helps frame this label. A demiboy is someone who feels partially, but not fully, aligned with a male gender identity, often within a nonbinary or gender-diverse framework. A demigirl similarly feels partially aligned with a female gender identity. Both terms use the “demi-” prefix to indicate partial identification rather than complete identification with the binary genders.

The combined label demiboydemigirl is used by some people to express a specific experience of gender that encompasses both demi-male and demi-female elements, or a broader sense of self that integrates aspects of these identities. Because gender identity is personal, there is no single universal definition, and individuals may experience, describe, and label themselves in different ways. Pronouns and presentation vary accordingly and may include he/him, she/her, they/them, or other pronoun sets, selected by the person.

As with many gender labels, demiboydemigirl is informal and community-driven rather than a clinically defined category. Respect for a person’s self-description and chosen pronouns is essential. In practice, some people who use this label may also identify with related nonbinary categories (such as bigender or nonbinary) or prefer not to align with any single label.
