NYPD School Safety First Trimester Practice Test

Gender identity is your internal sense of who you are in terms of gender. It’s about how you feel inside and can be male, female, both, neither, or transgender. This inner understanding may align with the sex you were assigned at birth or it may be different. It’s separate from how you present yourself to others (gender expression), from biological sex, and from sexual orientation. The statement that describes your internal sense of being male or female or transgender best captures what gender identity means.
