'''Abigender''' (pronounced ''ah-bye-gender'' or ''ay-bye-gender''), also spelled Abbigender, is a gender identity under the [[Multigender]], [[Nonbinary]], and [[Transgender]] umbrella terms. Abigender people have two distinct and separate gender identities, however only feel a loose or vague connection to both gender identities and also do not feel that any part of their gender is "neutral" or "neither". The two genders may be static or fluid, with the latter being a type of [[genderfluid]]. Abigender people usually identify with the [[female]] and [[male]] [[Gender binary|binary genders]], though some identify with a different pair of genders, such as [[demigirl]] and [[maverique]].

Abigender is similar to [[bigender]], though rather than feeling as though an individual is wholly two genders, abigender people only feel a connection to two genders, rather than fully being either gender.

== Origin ==
The term ''abigender'' comes from Latin ''ad-,'' meaning "in relation to", and ''bi-,'' meaning "two", ''in relation to two genders.'' This is because abigender people feel a connection to two genders, but do not identify fully with either gender. Rather, it's more accurate to say an abigender identity is ''related'' to two genders, but not wholly. 

It was coined by Instagram user [https://www.instagram.com/rainiialec/ Rainii Alec] in the fall of 2020, who also created the original flags consisting of pastel blues and pinks with a dark purple stripe in the middle. Alec created the term after feeling like no currently existing gender labels at the time fit how they experience their gender. 

Like [[ambigender]], abigender is a more specific kind of [[multigender]] identity and a sister identity to [[bigender]]. If the gender identities fluctuate or are fluid, it can also fall under the [[genderflux]], [[genderfluid]], or [[fluidflux]] umbrellas as well. It is also possible for someone to fluctuate between abigender and [[bigender]], depending on the intensity of their gender identity/identities.
