Gender modality
Gender modality is the relationship between one's gender and the sex that they were assigned at birth. For example, someone who is assigned female at birth (AFAB) and identifies as a woman has a cisgender gender modality. The term was first coined by Florence Ashley in 2022 to describe the "broad category which includes being trans[gender] and being cis[gender]." The term was intended to be analogous to sexual orientation and to allow "space to reflect on" the relationship between gender identity and gender assigned at birth for non-binary people, people of diverse cultural backgrounds, and people with dissociative identity disorder.
The term has been applied in trans health and education literature, and by governments and courts.
