sooidentiteedi

Sooidentiteedi refers to an individual's internal sense of being male, female, both, neither, or somewhere else along the gender spectrum. This internal feeling is distinct from the sex assigned at birth, which is typically based on observable biological characteristics. Sooidentiteedi is a deeply personal experience and can evolve over time. It is not necessarily tied to a person's sexual orientation or their outward expression of gender, known as gender presentation. For some individuals, their gender identity aligns with the sex they were assigned at birth, a state known as cisgender. For others, their gender identity differs from their assigned sex, and these individuals may identify as transgender. Understanding sooidentiteedi involves recognizing that gender is a complex interplay of social, psychological, and biological factors, and that individual experiences are diverse and valid.
