你是男生或女生?
你是男生或女生?
--是的, 我是男生 / 不是, 我不是女生....
如果你覺得性別應該有兩個或以上的選擇...
你想你比較喜歡在「男生」及「女生」以外有另一款, 或多款選擇?
覺得不屬於傳統的性別角色?
剛剛收到來自美國加洲United Genders 的宣傳電郵, 看到內裡有一系列的名詞解釋很有趣, 原文摘錄如下。這讓我想起九十年代的政治正確運動, 從「正名」開始. 對於多元性別, 中文文字向來詞窮, 大部份還是相當難聽, 如「易服廦」、「變性」、「陰陽人」等, 性別可不會一夜間變出來的,「跨性別」算是比較好聽一點的了.
Androgynous: reflecting an appearance which appears neither masculine or feminine, or is in some way "in between". 不分, 動物學上稱為「雌雄同體的」(+_+), 從外表上不分或介乎於陽剛與陰柔之間。
Bigendered: refers to those who feel they have both a male and a female side to their personalities. Some “bigendered” people cross-dress, others may eventually have a sex-change operation, others may do neither. 同時擁有男女兩性性別特質。
Binary Gender: A system of viewing gender as consisting solely of two categories, termed “male” and “female”, in which no other possibilities for gender or anatomy are believed to exist. This system is oppressive to gender-variant people who do not fit neatly into one of these categories. 傳統的兩性性別觀點。
Birth Sex/Sex: the sex one is assigned at birth due to the presence of whatever external sex organs. Once this determination is made, it becomes a label used for raising the child in either one gender image or another (male or female).原生性別。
Cross Dresser: anyone who wears the clothing generally ascribed to the “opposite” gender. 穿著一般被認為是「異性」的衣服者。(甚麼時候開始, 衣服有了自己的性別?)
Drag Queen/Drag King: gender benders or cross-dressers who wear women's clothing (drag queens) or men's clothes (drag kings) often in a theatrical manner. 舞台上穿異性衣服的表演者。
FTM: female-to-male transgendered person. 女->男的跨性別人士。
Gender Dysphoria: Unhappiness with one's physical/anatomical gender. Also, dissatisfaction with one's gender socialization. Terms such as "gender identity disorder" and "gender dysphoria syndrome" were created by mental health providers and carry a stigma of presenting gender-variant people as mentally unstable. Therefore trans people do not frequently use these words to describe themselves. 性別焦慮。
Gender Expression: The way a person presents their gender to the world.性別表達.....我想寫....可以係性別表演
Gender-Fluid: a person whose gender identity or expression is subject to periodic change. 性別流動, 性別認同常常流來流去的。
Gender Identity: an internal sense of one's gender. 內心的性別身份。
Genderqueer: A mindset of viewing gender as having more than two options. This is also called having an understanding of non-binary gender. Individuals who identify as "genderqueer" may prefer not to identify as either 'male' or 'female', may see themselves as outside of the binary gender boxes, may feel restricted by gender labels, categories, and pronouns, or may be themselves comfortable identifying as 'male' or 'female', while recognizing that these categories do not fit everyone. 認同性別不止兩種的性別觀點.
Genderphobia: Fear or discomfort with the idea that some people may not fit into the two restrictive categories imposed by the binary gender system. A recent term, meaning the same thing as 'non-binary gender phobia'. 對於多元性別感到恐懼。
Intersex: The physical characteristic of having been born with genitalia which do not conform completely to binary medical stereotypes of the'male' penis and testes or the 'female' clitoris and vaginal canal. Roughly 1 in 2000 infants is born with what doctors consider 'ambiguous' genitalia, putting them at risk for intersex genital mutilation. An even higher proportion of the population is intersex in some way. These people were formerly referred to in medical literature as 'hermaphrodites', but this language is now recognized as both incorrect and offensive. 在動植物學上用上hermaphrodites說明同時具有兩性性徵者, 有些中文書譯作陰陽人, 我覺得這個字感覺很壞。對於天生具有兩性性徵的baby, 那些急於「糾正」的父母及兒科專家們會為baby作主, 決定切除他的其中一些性器官成為其中一個性別。不過愈來愈多報告指出這樣是錯的, 性別應該由baby自己作主, 而同時擁有兩性性徵其實無礙於快樂活下去。未知香港的普遍處理為何?
MTF: male-to-female transgendered person.男->女的跨性別人士。
MTM: male-to-male transgendered person. 這條是我自己加上去的, 因為在網絡上看到一些MTM朋友的網站而學懂, 他們覺得自己根本就是男的, 盡管天生的身體擁有女性性徵, 因此通過外科手術, 就能讓身體與心靈更配合了.
Non-Binary Gender: A system of viewing gender as having more than two options. 多元性別觀點.
Non-Op: transsexuals who may or may not seek hormone treatment and who live as their chosen gender, but for a variety of reasons, may not feel that surgery is neccesary for the completion of their transition. 跨性別者沒有打算, 或不覺得接受荷爾蒙治療、或外科手術是適合自己的, 以決定以自己選擇的性別身份生活。不是每一位跨性別人士都打算做手術喔!
Passing: being perceived by others as a member of a particular identity, gender, age, etc., regardless of how the individual in question identifies. Ex: passing as straight, passing as a woman, passing as a youth.
Post-Op: (short for post-operative transsexual) a transsexual who has gone through sex reassignment surgery (SRS) and is now considered to have the physical anatomy corresponding to their chosen, binary gender.
Pre-Op: a transsexual who has not yet had surgery but plans on doing so.
Transwoman: see MTF.
Transgender: 這裡因應傳統兩性性別觀及多元性別觀, 而有兩種解釋
1. An umbrella term for transgression of the binary gender system. May include surgical, hormonal, or non-hormonal changes to one's body or identity, which result in a gender identity different from the one assigned at birth.
2. Within the binary gender system, 'transgender' is often used to refer to people who have or are now transitioning surgically or hormonally from either male to female (MTF) or female to male (FTM).
Transman: see FTM
Transphobia: Fear and discomfort with gender variant or transgendered people.
Transsexual (TS): Within the binary gender system, a person who identifies as a gender 'opposite' the sex they were assigned at birth. Transsexuals may or may not opt to pursue hormone treatment and sex reassignment surgery.
Transvestite (TV): A person who dresses in clothing of the 'opposite' gender for whatever reason. Often people labeled as transvestite are heterosexual and cross dress as part of sexual play. 我也很不喜歡這個英文, 和中文「易服廦」, 只是因為愛漂亮, 而穿上被稱為是異性的衣服, 便被說成是病態似的.

原文這樣寫:
"MTM: male-to-female transgendered person. 這條是我自己加上去的, 因為在網絡上看到一些MTM朋友的網站而學懂, 他們覺得自己根本就是男的, 盡管天生的身體擁有女性性徵, 因此通過外科手術, 就能讓身體與心靈更配合了"
這個應是male-to-male嗎?
