Sapphicgender

Not to be confused with sapphogender

Sapphicgender is an orientationgender in which one's sapphic identity heavily affects, correlates with, or influences their gender. One may feel that their attraction to women has an impact on their gender that can only be explained by them. Sapphicgender individuals may identify as other genders along with sapphicgender, such as binary woman, demigirl, juxera, girlflux, and any other woman-aligned genders.

One's gender can be influenced by one's sapphic identity in many ways. For example, one may not feel fully connected to womanhood because womanhood is often heavily tied with attraction to men. One may feel that, even though they are a woman, they do feel fully connected to that gender, or feel as though their experience as a woman has been heavily influenced by being sapphic to the point that one's identity as a woman, and one's identity as sapphic become blurred. Sapphicgender individuals may be gender non-conforming for similar reasons.
