    Metagender is a term that has been coined multiple times with varying definitions, including as multiple nonbinary gender identities, a sexual orientation, a gender modality, and a description for gender-nonconforming behavior. Different definitions have been used for LGBTQ+ self-identifiers and in academic settings.

    History

    In a 1999 interview, musician/poet/filmmaker Phoebe Legere said that she was "metagender, metasexual, not a man or a woman."[1]

    The term was coined again in the 2000s by Rook Thomas Hine.[2] This coining's definition is given as "someone who identifies as neither male nor female, neither woman nor man, neither neuter nor feminine nor masculine. [...] A metagender is less of a 'both/and' combination, 'all of the above' or androgyne, and more of a 'wholly other' third/fourth/eighty-seventh category, or 'none of the above'."[3] The metagender identity was further developed as "a social gender that comes into play in a spiritual and religious context" inside a neopagan context.[4]

    Maxfield Sparrow, who came out as metagender in 1992,[5][6] wrote in 2018 that metagender "expresses feeling outside the entire paradigm of gender."[7]

    In June 2014 "metagender" was suggested as an alternative word for pangender.[8]

    "Metagender" was independently coined again in 2014 by Tumblr users keyblademastercecilpalmer, agenderchrismclean, and lordmoriarty by submission to the MOGAI-Archive blog, and the definition was: "To identify around or beyond a gender. Where your gender identity is almost that gender, but not quite, and also extends beyond that. Imagine that —- is you, and | is the gender identity (and identifying fully with a gender is —-|), then metagender is —- | —-" For example, meta-boy, meta-girl, meta-nonbinary, and so on.[9]

    In the 2019 Worldwide Gender Census, one respondent called themselves metagender.[10] In the 2020 Worldwide Gender Census, four respondents called themselves metagender.[11]

    In Academia and Gender Analysis

    Metagender(ed) (sometimes meta-gender(ed) or metagenderism) has been used to describe "the academic engagement with or the theorizing of gender,"[12][13] spiritual identities that transcend gender,[14][15][16][17] systems of gender,[18][19] applying regardless of gender or to all genders equally,[20][21][22] and otherwise being about gender.[23][13]

    Examples:

    "These dynamics are meta-gendered, in that they impact men and women and those who don’t identify in the binary, without particular discrimination, putting all of us at risk for weirdly pervasive and unexamined suffering."[22]
