'''Gender-receptive''' (also known as '''smoothgender''' and '''easygendr''') is a [[genderfluid]] individual who experiences a low level of [[Gender Friction|gender friction]]. Someone who is gender-receptive may also be [[gender-frictive]] if they can also experience high levels of gender friction when switching genders. It describes how one's gender(s) behave, rather than what they are composed of.
A low level of gender friction indicates a smooth and often subtle transition between genders, and can involve the following experiences/feelings:
*the old gender willingly relinquishing control for the new gender.
*not noticing a gender switch until it has already occurred.
*the melding of two genders, feeling indistinct from one another during the change, instead of at odds.
*genders being parallel as they move past each other.
*a quiet/soft/slow gender switch.
Experiences gender-receptives may feel include:
* uncertain, occasional, and/or situational [[Dysphoria|gender dysphoria]].
* gender questioning, feeling uncertain over what gender they currently are.
* a very nuanced understanding of their gender and the subtleties of how it acts.
*a blurring of genders, an overlapping sensation.
