Having no other words that fit their gender identity.Having an unknown or undefinable gender not aligning with any binary or non-binary gender.This may be meant in the sense of being neither man or woman yet still having a gender. What is Being Agender?Īs it’s described, someone who is agender does not feel associated with any gender at all.Īccording to the Gender Wiki, people who are agender typically feel: If gender exists, gender can be absent as well. So if you think gender exists at all, and you think gender exists in a binary, then the opposite on it’s binary is true. However, here’s what I have to say: If you think there are men and women, you think gender exists (a dog or dolphin or Tyrannosaurus Rex cannot be a man or woman, but they can certainly be male or female). It’s hard to find your fit among people’s opinions and uses of facts. There are camps saying there are only two genders (by which they usually mean sexes) and other camps saying there’s a wide, burgeoning spectrum of genders. And if the internet proves anything, there’s a whole lot of discourse (in inside voices and outside) over gender. If you’re questioning your gender at all, you’ve probably used the internet to help you out.
