Instructions

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⚝───⭒─ ᘛ⁐̤ᕐ⩺─⭒────────⚝ ⠀⠀⠀⠀So , to start us off , what is a xenogender ? ☏ A xenogender "...is an umbrella term for non-binary gender identities that cannot be fully described through their relation to concepts typically used to describe gender such as male, female, woman, man, masculinity, femininity, androgyny, neutrality, agenrinity, or outherinity. ( https://lgbta.miraheze.org/wiki/Xenogender ) " ☏ " [Xenogenders] are a new kind of gender that falls under the nonbinary/trans umbrella. Usually used by neurodivergent individuals, it helps people describe what their gender feels like better than the normal agender or transmasc. These genders involve of catgender, voidgender, and tons of others. " @zourzweet says. Xenogenders are like your gender has a similarity with items , people , characters , animals , etc . It does not mean you feel like you * are * that , just that your gender has similarities . ( This is for xenos like catgender or voidgender or etc ) Being aligned with xenogenders or being xenic does not mean you have to be exclusively xenine , you could be aligned with masculine , feminine , or other identities other than xenogenders ! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⚝───⭒─ ᘛ⁐̤ᕐ⩺─⭒────────⚝ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Scratchers and their xenos ! ☏ @IndieGhostbuster identifies demogorgender , a gender connected to demogorgons from stranger things , and xenohoarding ! Xenohoarding makes el feel very happy and warm . ☏ @Shiny--'s gender sometimes is music xeno related , and their gender sometimes feels like " ... a chord, or a note, or a scale, or even a short melody . " ☏ @scratcheule_AVSome's xenogender is abstractgender , for them , it's a bit like polygender ( a mix of androgynous, neutrois, xenogender, agender, demitransgender ) . Sier feels like they have one unique gender . ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⚝───⭒─ ᘛ⁐̤ᕐ⩺─⭒────────⚝ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Questions ! ☏ Why are there xenogenders ? ⠀⠀⠀Xenogenders are for people who don't / can't describe their gender with the words and labels we have today , like masculine , androgynous , feminine , trans , etc . Or , going back to what was said earlier : " [ Gender ] identities that cannot be fully described through their relation to concepts typically used to describe gender such as male, female ... ( https://lgbta.miraheze.org/wiki/Xenogender ) " ☏ Are they exclusively for neurodivergent people ? ⠀⠀Nope ! But , yes there are certain xenos that are neurodivergent exclusive ( like genders that are system specific , or like ADHDgender (which is not ADHD as a gender, it's where your ADHD affects your gender, or your gender can be understood only from an ADHD point of view) , and many others ) . But , most xenogenders are open to literally anyone ! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⚝───⭒─ ᘛ⁐̤ᕐ⩺─⭒────────⚝ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Misconceptions about xenogenders ☏ One misconception about xenogenders that relate to animals is that it inherently means you are a furry or a zooph^le . ☏ Another misconception is that xenic people believe that they are these things they identify by ( like froggender ) , but that is completely not true . I'm going to use froggender as an example . So , say you identify as froggender . That does not mean you believe you are a frog , identify as a frog . It means that you believe your gender feels like a frog , has the same traits as a frog , have a hyperfixation of frogs , or you want to incorporate it into your gender . ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⚝───⭒─ ᘛ⁐̤ᕐ⩺─⭒────────⚝
