a gender bender is a person who seeks to define gender expression outside of the binary terms of man and woman.

this person may express their gender in a variety of ways such as cross-dressing and not adhereing to stereotypical, traditional, and/or cultural ideals and practices for their gender.

the person often believes in the thought system of gender and s-x being separate. a person can be one s-x, but express a gender that is usually not -ssociated with that s-x.

may also use gender neutral pr-nouns such as ze and hir.

explore the concepts of femininity and masculinity with freedom.

a player in an mmorpg whose online character is the opposite of their real life gender. there are many different reasons cited as to why people gender bend.

1. men may play female characters because they’re treated nicer, receive more freebies and are invited to teams more often.

2. in player-vs-player environments, female characters are often seen as weaker, and some men may seek to exploit a psychological advantage over chauvinistic players.

3. female players may create a male character so that they are more respected and taken more seriously, especially if they try to take on a leadership role.

4. a male player figures that if he must look at his character’s b-tt the whole time, it might as well be a female one.

5. a desire to try out a different role in an anonymous environment.

6. gays who wish to gain more s-xual interest from their preferred gender.

7. some men are feminist enough to genuinely enjoy creating powerful women characters.

8. a perverse pleasure in getting an unsuspecting heteros-xual person of the same gender to pursue a relationship, only to spring the surprise on them later.

9. for some males (usually -ssumed to be s-xually immature or frustrated), it’s a method of dominating and controlling the female body.

“lots of gender benders in this store.”
a person who sees gender as a sociocultural construction and not something innate. because genders are roles we play, and not something inherant, gender is something that can be turned on or off, tuned in or out and will. because of this, someone who bends gender might wear baggy pants and pee standing one day, and crack out heels and a corset the next. people can bend gender in many ways and contexts, and because of this, people who are of any gender or s-xual orientation can be gender-benders.
