Over 100 gender, sexuality options on application for San Francisco's guaranteed transgender income program

San Francisco's transgender guaranteed income program application asks enrollees to choose between 130 gender, sexuality and pronoun options.

San Francisco's transgender guaranteed income program application provides over 130 gender, sexuality and pronoun options, and encouraging enrollees to "check all that apply." 

The "Guaranteed Income for Transgender People (G.I.F.T.)" program will provide 55 "economically marginalized transgender people," who have a monthly income of less than $600 with $1,200 per month for a year-and-a-half. Although, enrollees can make a maximum of $4,000 a month and still be enrolled in the program, according to the program’s website.

Pronoun options on the application include "Zie/zim/zis," "Fae/faer/faers" and "Tey/ter/ters." 

Under the gender identity category, applicants can choose from options like "Aggressive (AG)," which is an "identity label claimed by some African-American and Latin@ masculine of center lesbians," according to the University of Florida LGBTQ+ Affairs office.

"Genderf---" is another option in the gender identity category, which is "the idea of playing with ‘gender cues’ to purposely confuse stereotypical gender expressions, usually through clothing." according to the University of Connecticut Rainbow Center. Another option is "Two-spirit," which is an "identity label used within many American Indian and Canadian First Nations indigenous groups to describe an individual that possesses both 'masculine' and 'feminine' spirits." according to the University of Florida.

Other gender identity options included "Feminine-of-center," "Demigirl," "Boi," "Tomboy," "Khanith/Xanith" and "Ninauposkitzipxpe."
