			\|'''third gender'''
			\|A term for those who belong to a category other than masculine or feminine. For example, Native American two-spirit people, hijira in India, kathoeys in Thailand, and travestis in Brazil. The term is contested terminology in itself, as it has been used by western researchers and queer communities to homogenize and romanticize non-binary genders across different cultures and languages. Try to use more specific language where available, unless someone self-describes in this way.

This may include campaiging against trans women's rights, or objectifying and dehumanizing trans women.
	In a patriarchal society it is seen as a threat to masculinity when people who "could have been men" reject manhood in favor of a "lower status" position – womanhood. As such, trans women are often treated with abjection, or transmisogyny, both interpersonally and structurally. Acknowledging the presence of this in archival materials is important, as transfeminine people are statistically some of the most vulnerable people in society, and yet prejudice towards them is still widespread.

			\|'''transphobia'''
			\|Transphobia consists of three main parts – anti-trans stereotypes, anti-trans prejudice, and anti-trans discrimination. Any of these elements on it’s own can be transphobia. Stereotypes include, for example, the idea that trans people aren’t real, that they are delusional, or that they are dangerous. Misconceptions of biology, and ideas of gender oppression revolving around reproductive capacity (gender essentialism) are two further examples of stereotypes – or overgeneralised ideas. Prejudicial feelings are usually based on these stereotypical ideas, and may include fear, anger, discomfort, distrust, disgust, or hatred directed towards trans people. Discrimination is actions, based on prejudice. ‘Transphobia’ is used similarly to ‘homophobia’.

	\|The practice of having simultaneous close emotional relationships with two or more other individuals; an alternative relationship practice/identity to monogamy. Implies consent of all people involved (it is still possible to "cheat" on someone in a poly relationship). Also known as "ethical-nonmonogamy" or "ENM." Often shorted to "poly" as an asdjective (eg "she is poly," "they are in a poly relationship"). There are also straight people who practice polyamory, though some people view polyamory as inherently within the queer umbrella. It has been practised more commonly within LGBTQIA+ communities. There are many types of relationship structure included within the "poly" umbrella, including closed polycules, relationship anarchy, solo poly, parallel poly, open relationships, and many others. Often used as a self-descriptor, which should be replicated without quotation marks. May be used in quotation marks when described historical practices. Should not be confused with "polygamy," which refers to marrying multiple people, and is often used prejoratively.		\|The practice of having simultaneous close emotional relationships with two or more other individuals; an alternative relationship practice/identity to monogamy.
