<p></p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>&quot;Gender Envy&quot; is a phenomenon in which an individual feels envious of other how an individual or thing presents their [[gender]]. Although it most often occurs in [[Transgender|trans individuals]], one does not have to be trans to experience gender envy, and one doesn’t have to experience gender envy to be trans. Gender envy often goes hand-in-hand with [[Gender Euphoria|gender euphoria]] and [[dysphoria]] in this sense. Gender envy may be felt over many things: voice, hairstyle, face/body structure, clothing. It doesn&#039;t only need to be felt about people. Many individuals experience gender envy for non-human things as well.<br /> <br /> === Examples of Gender Envy ===<br /> <br /> * James has gender envy over Michael because he has a naturally flat chest and facial hair, something that James does not have.<br /> * Amy has gender envy of Serena because of her long hair and feminine clothing, something Amy can&#039;t grow or wear over fear of her parents finding out about her being trans.<br /> * Xion has gender envy over a character in their favorite movie, as they are able to shapeshift and present however they want, something that Xion is limited by due to their physical body.<br /> <br /> === Coinage ===<br /> The exact origins of this term aren&#039;t known. However, some suggest it originated some time during the 90&#039;s. Others suggest that the phrase stems from &quot;penis envy,&quot; a controversial theory created by Sigmund Freud. However, the two phrases are extremely different, and shouldn&#039;t be used interchangeably.<br /> <br /> === Resources ===<br /> <br /> * https://www.lgbtqnation.com/2022/07/gender-envy-unpacking-term/<br /> * https://english-grammar-lessons.com/gender-envy-meaning/<br /> <br /> === See Also ===<br /> <br /> * [[Gender Euphoria]]<br /> * [[Genderenvious]]<br /> * [[Dysphoria]]<br /> <br /> <br /> {{LgbtqiaWikI}}<br /> [[Category:Terminology]]<br /> [[Category:Transgender Concepts]]</div>
