Yinyang ren
Yinyang ren (simplified Chinese: 阴阳人; traditional Chinese: 陰陽人; pinyin: yīnyáng rén) are people (rén) who are both yin or feminine and yang or masculine in approximately equal proportions.
Gender role and gender identity[edit]
This category of gender identity[not in citation given] and gender role is used in Chinese society to describe some individuals whose personalities and behaviors appear to be intermediate between more ordinary masculine and feminine cases.[1] Other characteristics may include elements such as assertiveness, aesthetic sensitivity, etc., as well as lack of strong discrimination between preferred sexual partners on the basis of their sex.
Other uses[edit]
In other contexts, the term yin-yang ren can refer either to intersex or transgender people.
