Paraboy, paraguy, paramasculine or paramale, is a gender identity in which one is paragender, and is also connected to masculine or masculine-aligned identities. One's masculine identity will make up 51%-99% of one's gender, whilst the remaining percentage may be any other gender or combination of genders. Paraboy is a subset of paragender. The female counterpart is paragirl, while the Non-binary counterpart would be Paraenby. [1]

History

Paraboy was coined by Tumblr user queerspike, although it is unknown when. [2]

Flag

The paraboy pride flag was created by Pride-Flags on August 23, 2015. The gray represents partial gender, white represents lack of gender, and the purple outside of the blue center stripe are close to blue on the color wheel, which symbolizes the “near-ness” of paraboy.  [3]
