Types Of Gender
A set of classes that together include all nouns is classified as gender. The most familiar sets of genders are of three classes as masculine, feminine, and neuter.
Masculine nouns refer to the male member of a species (i.e., man, boy, actor, horse, etc.)
Feminine nouns refer to female members of a species (i.e. woman, girl, actress, mare, etc.)
Common nouns refer to members of a species and don’t have a specific gender (i.e. parent, friend, client, student, etc.)
Neuter nouns refer to things that have no gender (i.e., rock, table, pencil, etc.)

In our society, there are a lot of misunderstandings about gender. In our society, the genders that are most recognized are male and female, and it is based on someone’s anatomy, but it’s wrong.
We should not recognize a gender based on anatomy, gender identity is how a person feels and who they know themselves to be when it comes to their gender. There are more than two genders, including male, female, transgender, gender neutral, non-binary, agender, pangender, genderqueer, two-spirit, and all, none, or a combination of these.
*Agender:
A person who is agender does not identify with any particular gender, or they may have no gender at all. Other terms for this may include:
neutral gender
null-gender
genderless
neutrois
*Androgyne:
A person who identifies as androgyne has a gender that is either both masculine and feminine or between masculine and feminine.
*Bigender:
A person who identifies as bigender has two genders. People who are bigender often culture masculine and feminine roles.
*Butch:
Women, especially lesbians, tend to use this term to describe the way they express masculinity or what society defines as masculinity.
*Cisgender:
A cisgender person identifies with the sex that they were assigned at birth.
For example, a cisgender woman is someone who still identifies with the sex female.
These are some of the genders that I have explained.
