‘Trans’ is my gender modality

from The sky is trans, why wouldn’t I be Hosted by Florence Ashley

Florence Ashley, “‘Trans’ Is My Gender Modality: A Modest Terminological Proposal” in Trans Bodies, Trans Selves, 2nd ed. (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2022) at 22 Abstract: Currently, no word exists in our vocabulary for the broad category which includes being trans and being cis. ​To address this gap, I propose the adoption of a new term: gender modality. Gender modality refers to how a person’s gender identity stands in relation to their gender assigned at birth. It is an open-ended category which includes being trans and being cis and welcomes the elaboration of further terms which speak to the diverse experiences people may have of the relationship between their gender identity and gender assigned at birth.
