Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Jian-Yu's gender identity, or their internal sense of being a woman, conflicts with their gender expression, or how they present themselves to the world through their behavior and appearance. This inconsistency is often referred to as gender dysphoria, and can cause significant emotional distress for individuals who experience it. Stigma awareness and minority stress theory may also be factors in Jian-Yu's reluctance to come out as transgender, but these do not directly relate to the inconsistency between gender identity and gender expression.
