If you’re reading this, you’ve undoubtedly taken a lot of time to consider your gender. How do you present yourself to the world? How do you want to present yourself? Do you identify as a man, woman, or a different gender entirely?

Gender fluidity is a change over time in how a person expresses their gender or how they identify. It can refer to one or both of those things, and it can continue to change for the rest of your life.

On paper, gender fluidity is fairly easy to understand. So, why does society have such a hard time with it? More importantly, how can you continue to live your truth?
