Social media influencer Emily Skvarch took a bold step by revealing their trigender identity to their TikTok followers.
But what does it mean to be trigender? Emily is here to break it down for us.
A New Era of Gender Identity
For Emily, being trigender means identifying as a man, a woman, and non-binary all at once.
They use the pronouns she, he, and they, and are proud to be themselves, despite the recent controversy surrounding gender identity.
@future4caster Hi new people!!! I’m so happy you’re here! It’s me, your loving triangle aunt #lgbt #trigender #crystalshop ♬ original sound – Emily Skvarch
With the Trump administration’s executive order recognizing only two genders, male and female, Emily’s story is more important than ever.
What is Trigender?
So, what exactly does it mean to be trigender? According to Emily, it’s similar to being gender fluid, but instead of feeling a range of genders, they feel a large portion of that range all the time.
As Emily explains, “I am a man, a woman, and non-binary, all at once [and] all the time.”
This identity falls under the category of people who identify with more than one gender, which also includes bigender, pangender, or gender fluidity.
The Impact of Hate and Criticism
Despite facing criticism and hate from some, Emily remains unapologetic about their identity.
In fact, they think it’s “the cutest thing ever” when people call them “triangle” as a reference to their trigender identity.
Emily’s message is clear: they are not planning on changing who they are to fit someone else’s mold.
A Beacon of Hope and Inspiration
Emily’s bravery has inspired many, with fans praising their explainer video and thanking them for addressing their critics.
One viewer commented, “Your trigender video made me really sit and think about my own gender identity. So thank you for that!”
Another added, “I don’t understand why people care so much how other people live their life… why not focus on promoting happiness instead of conformity.”
Embracing Identity and Promoting Acceptance
In a world where conformity is often pushed, Emily’s story is a reminder that being true to oneself is the most important thing. As they say, “I kinda like who I am as a person…
So I am not planning on changing my triangleness anytime soon, and you will never be able to take that away from me.”
Emily’s courage and self-acceptance are an inspiration to us all, and a reminder that everyone deserves to be respected and loved for who they are.
