	Some anthropologists use cogender as a synonym for third gender, that is to say, as an umbrella term for gender variant and LGBT roles and identities in various cultures.

Some examples of how anthropologists have used the word "co-gender:"

	* When anthropologists write about shamanic traditions among the indigenous Mapuche (Araucana) people of Chile, they use co-gender to talk about roles that the ''machi'' (shamans) take on during their spiritual practice. Historically, as well as today, machi can have had any gender assigned at birth, and their practice involves ritual cross-dressing in order to communicate with certain aspects of their Creator as needed. At different times, they dress to take on a wife role for a male aspect of that deity, or to take on a husband aspect for a female aspect of that deity. The machi becomes part of a male-female pair with the Creator.<ref>Ana Mariella Bacigalupo, ''Shamans of the Foye Tree.''

	* Anthropologists writing about cosmologies in which everything is characterized as having female and male aspects have referred to this as a co-gendered cosmos. Based on the primordial male-female deity couple, "in highland Guatemala, husbands and wives are trained together as shamans by a shaman couple. [They are taught to] recognize both cosmic co-gendering and their own co-gendered nature [...] they learn how to properly balance the feminine and masculine dimensions both within their own bodies and the cosmos."<ref>Mariko Namba Walter and Eva Jane Neumann Fridman.

	Cogender is ~~an inclusive~~ [[~~gender identity~~]] ~~that is~~ the ~~union~~ of ~~two or more gender identities~~. A cogender ~~person is okay being identified as any~~ of the ~~genders included in their identity~~. ~~You can be cogender~~ and ~~not know it at first if your gender happens to include~~ the [[~~Assigned Sex~~\|~~gender you were assigned at birth~~]]~~. The difference between~~ a ~~cogender person whose~~ gender ~~happens~~ to ~~include the~~ gender ~~they were assigned at birth~~ and a [[~~cisgender~~]] ~~person~~ is that the ~~cogender would okay with being identified as another~~ gender.		'''Cogender''', or '''co-gender''' (from Latin ''co'' ("with, together") + ''gender'') is a word that has been used with a few different meanings. It has been coined independently at different times. Cogender can mean:
			* Cogender as a term for gender inclusion: Inclusion of people of different genders in a community, as opposed to a men-only or women-only community. This is the most common way this word is used. When used in print, it's usually in reference to a co-gender school (also called co-education)<ref><nowiki>For example, "Single-gender classrooms are better for middle school students than co-gender classrooms." Katie Rogers, Julia A. Simms. ''Teaching Argumentation: Activities and games for the classroom.'' Bloomington, IN: Marzano Research Laboratory, 2015. Unpaged.</nowiki></ref> or to a co-gender [[LGBT]] activist group (as opposed to a lesbian-only activist group).<ref><nowiki>For example, "Lesbians ... joined the new direct-action groups ... despite their overwhelmingly male membership. One of the bases for the new cogender identity was the commonality of concerns between lesbians and gay men and the power of cogender organizing. New theorizing about the movement began to assume the participation of both lesbians and gay men, and agendas no longer focused on the specific needs and concerns of lesbians alone."

	~~One format of expressing this identify is ''X coY'' where X and Y~~ are ~~genders. Example: ''girl coboy''~~.		The latter two meanings are explored further below.

	A cogender person may want parts they ~~don't~~ have that are associated with their cogenders, but ~~they don't~~ need them~~. This doesn't~~ mean ~~they don't~~ experience dysphoria, just that they ~~are fine~~ with the parts included in their gender identity. Example: an~~ ~~agender cogirl person assigned male at birth may feel dysphoria over their genitals (and the reactions ~~thereof~~) and ~~may~~ want breasts but ~~doesn't~~ need breasts.		==In anthropology==

			Some anthropologists use cogender as a synonym for third gender, that is to say, as an umbrella term for gender variant and LGBT roles and identities in various cultures. Some examples of how anthropologists have used the word "co-gender:"

			* When anthropologists write about shamanic traditions among the indigenous Mapuche (Araucana) people of Chile, they use co-gender to talk about roles that the ''machi'' (shamans) take on during their spiritual practice. Historically, as well as today, machi can have had any gender assigned at birth, and their practice involves ritual cross-dressing in order to communicate with certain aspects of their Creator as needed. At different times, they dress to take on a wife role for a male aspect of that deity, or to take on a husband aspect for a female aspect of that deity. The machi becomes part of a male-female pair with the Creator.<ref>Ana Mariella Bacigalupo, ''Shamans of the Foye Tree.'' University of Texas Press. 2007.</ref> As concerning "co-gendered identities"<ref>Bacigalupo, 2007. pp. 131-133</ref> of "''machi'' as co-gender specialists",<ref>http://www.utexas.edu/utpress/excerpts/exbacsha.html</ref>, the machi themselves have often been categorized as ''[[Two-Spirit]],'' meaning indigenous gender roles that don't correspond to Western ideas of the strictly cisgender, heterosexual [[gender binary]].
			* Anthropologists writing about cosmologies in which everything is characterized as having female and male aspects have referred to this as a co-gendered cosmos. Based on the primordial male-female deity couple, "in highland Guatemala, husbands and wives are trained together as shamans by a shaman couple. [They are taught to] recognize both cosmic co-gendering and their own co-gendered nature [...] they learn how to properly balance the feminine and masculine dimensions both within their own bodies and the cosmos."<ref>Mariko Namba Walter and Eva Jane Neumann Fridman. ''Shamanism : an Encyclopedia of World Beliefs, Practices, and Culture.'' Santa Barbara, California. 2004. Page 134.</ref><ref>This summary is derived that on the Gender Wiki, retrieved March 23, 2019. http://gender.wikia.com/wiki/Cogender_(Anthropology)</ref>

			In this capacity, it's far less common for anthropologists to use the term "cogender" than "third gender."

			==Cogender as a gender identity==

			A post from August 25th, 2016 titled "[https://cogender.tumblr.com/post/149490281241/introducing-cogender Introducing Cogender]" on the "[http://cogender.tumblr.com Ask A Cogender]" blog independently coined another idea of cogender:

			<blockquote>
			cogender (from the latin root co meaning “with, together" and gender) is an inclusive gender identity that is the union of two or more gender identities. A cogender person is ok being identified as any of the genders included in their identity. You can be cogender and not know it if your gender happens to include the sex you were assigned at birth.

			The difference between a cogender whose gender happens [to] include the gender they were assigned at birth and cis person is the cogender would ok with being identified as another gender.

			one format of expressing this identify is X coY where X and Y are genders. Example girl coboy.

			note a cogender person may want parts they don’t have that are associated with their cogenders but don’t need them, this doesn’t mean the don’t experience dysphoria just that they ok with the parts included in their gender identity. Example an agender cogirl person assigned male at birth may feel dysphoria over their genitals (and the reactions there of) and want breasts but don’t need breasts.<ref>"Introducing Cogender." ''Ask A Cogender.'' August 25, 2016. Retrieved March 23, 2019. https://cogender.tumblr.com/post/149490281241/introducing-cogender</ref>
			</blockquote>

			In this definition of cogender, it is a specific type of nonbinary and multigender identity.

			===Cofluid===

			As coined on the same blog as the above definition of cogender, on August 26, 2016: "cofluid is when one part of the cogender identity is static but the other part(s) change (possibly to match the first part). Example a cofluidboy has a cogender identity that always includes male but the other identities vary."<ref>"Cofluid." ''Ask A Cogender.'' Aug 26th, 2016. Retrieved March 23, 2019. https://cogender.tumblr.com/post/149510927050/cofluid</ref>

	One type of cogender identity is ''cofluid'', which is a [[genderfluid]] version of it. In a cofluid identity, one part of the cogender identity is static but the other part(s) change, possibly to match the first part. For example: a ''cofluidboy'' has a cogender identity that always includes male, but the other identities vary.
