Gay Wedding Glossary

Gender Expression: 
External manifestation of one’s gender identity, expressed through “masculine,” “feminine” or gender-variant behavior, clothing, haircut, voice or body characteristics. Usually, transgender people want their gender expression match their gender identity, rather than their birth-assigned sex.

You may work with some clients whose gender expression defies what you are used to.  You may encounter some women who dress like men (maybe some of your bridegrooms) and some men who dress like women.  This is their gender expression.
