Queer is the new normal.
The original meaning of the word QUEER to be polite is non con-formative, but weird or strange are also used.
Mad/crazy and stupid are the less polite choices.

Strange & Queer
As a Queen could be a man.
As a Queen could be a man seems to be not the logical choice or better there seems to be not much choice female or male but is only the biological gender and may not define what you really are.
Gender identity is the personal sense of one’s own gender.
Gender identity can correlate with a person’s assigned sex or can differ from it.
In most individuals, the various biological determinants of sex are congruent, and consistent with the individual’s gender identity..
Gender expression typically reflects a person’s gender identity, but this is not always the case.
While a person may express behaviors, attitudes, and appearances consistent with a particular gender role, such expression may not necessarily reflect their gender identity.
The term gender identity was coined by psychiatry professor Robert J. Stoller in 1964 and popularized by psychologist John Money.
Essentialists argue that gender identity is determined at birth by biological and genetic factors, while social constructivists argue that gender identity and the way it is expressed are socially constructed, instead determined by cultural and social influences.
These positions are not mutually exclusive, as an innate gender identity can be expressed in different ways in different cultures.
There are several theories about how and when gender identity forms, and studying the subject is difficult because children’s immature language acquisition requires researchers to make assumptions from indirect evidence.
John Money suggested children might have awareness of and attach some significance to gender as early as 18 months to 2 years; Lawrence Kohlberg argued that gender identity does not form until age 3.
It is widely agreed that core gender identity is firmly formed by age 3 at this point, children can make firm statements about their gender and tend to choose activities and toys which are considered appropriate for their gender (such as dolls and painting for girls, and tools and rough-housing for boys), although they do not yet fully understand the implications of gender.
After age three, it is extremely difficult to change gender identity.
From my own observations in the daily practice of life and work I think this is only partly thru.

Queer ! Yes, it’s an identity.
But it also conveys a sense of community.
If you’re wondering what the actual definition of “queer” is, the simplest way to describe it is “not straight.”
For them, it’s an identity and/or orientation that doesn’t align with the hetero-normative expectation that everyone’s automatically heterosexual and hetero-romantic. While you might’ve heard the word used as an insult, the term has actually been reclaimed by the community as an act of empowerment.For many people who use the term ‘queer,’ it is specifically about embracing this idea of being out of mainstream ideas and embracing one’s own authentic self,”
In general, “queerness” is an umbrella term that is both an orientation and a community for those on the LGBTQIA+ spectrum.
Considering how many people the term can describe Queer both as individuals
and as a community it’s definitely an important word to understand and celebrate.
