There are many gender fluid individuals just like you! And it is completely normal to feel this way. Even people who identify as a male or female can have moments of gender fluidity and not even recognize it. Don't see yourself as something "other" than a man or a woman, instead recognize that these labels don't define all that you are, and accept that its okay to need to change them from time to time.

Everybody feels different. We all have our own preferences and sometimes other people do not fit into them. The thing is that you need to find you. No one else can do that. Whether you choose to identify as one gender or another you need to find out what you want. So to answer the question of what other genders there are, does it really matter? Create your own gender. Make your gender something that reflects who you are. Not everyone identifies as a boy or girl or they. Some people create a whole new category just for them.

I'm sorry you're struggling with your gender identity. It must be very trying and confusing. Thank you for reaching out to us.
There is agender (no gender at all), a demigirl/demiboy (where they identify with one gender more than the other), non binary (neither a girl, nor a boy. They're not bound by the usual gender binary in their gender identity and expression). There's genderfluid, where the gender of the person often changes and they feel more or less like a particular gender from time to time) and there's genderqueer, which is an umbrella term for everyone for everyone who identifies other than being Cisgender.
You can identify in any way, and you can always choose to not label yourself. It doesn't make your gender identity or its expression less valid. In the end of the day, you're a beautiful human. ♡

Even though identity has been defined as binary in the mainstream, we have now come to realize, through scientific inquiry and research, that gender and gender identity exists on a spectrum. There is thus no need to limit yourself in terms of gender identity or expression. Find what feels right for you, what's right for you, and surround yourself with people who get you and what you are all about, gender-wise and otherwise. All in all, diversity is something to be celebrated, not feared, and this applies to gender identity as well. Good luck on your journey of discovery of self! :-)
