Demiandrogyne is a non-binary gender identity that describes someone who partially identifies with being androgynous. The "demi-" prefix indicates a partial or only partly felt connection.

Here's a breakdown of what that means:

Partial Identification with Androgyny: A demiandrogyne individual feels a connection to the concept or experience of being androgynous, but this identification isn't complete or fully encompassing of their gender identity.

One Part Androgynous, Another Part Something Else: This partial identification with androgyny is often paired with another gender identity or a lack thereof. For example, a demiandrogyne person might feel partially androgynous and partially another non-binary identity or partially androgynous and partially agender (feeling a connection to androgyny alongside a lack of gender).

Varied Experiences: The specific experience of being demiandrogyne can vary greatly. The degree to which someone feels androgynous and what the "other part" of their identity is will be unique to the individual.

Under the Non-Binary Umbrella: Demiandrogyne falls under the broader non-binary (or genderqueer) umbrella, as it describes a gender identity that is not exclusively man or woman.

Not Necessarily About Presentation: Similar to "androgyne", "demiandrogyne" primarily refers to gender identity. While a demiandrogyne person might have an androgynous gender expression, this isn't a requirement. Their presentation is a separate aspect of their identity.

Examples of how someone might identify as demiandrogyne:

• Someone who feels a significant androgynous aspect to their identity but also identifies with another non-binary gender at the same time.
• Someone who feels a fleeting or less intense connection to androgyny alongside another, more constant gender identity.
• Someone who feels a connection to the idea of androgyny but doesn't fully embody it in their sense of self.
• Someone who feels a connection to androgyny mixed with a feeling of being without gender (agender).

In simple terms, demiandrogyne describes someone whose gender identity is partly androgynous, with the other part of their identity being something else – another gender identity or a lack thereof. It signifies a nuanced and partial connection to the experience of being both masculine and feminine or existing between the binary.
