Otherkin is an identity, but not a [[gender identity]]. That said, some otherkin do think of their gender identity as part of, influenced, or best described with their otherkin identity. For example, a [[nonbinary gender]] person who has decided that the best way to describe their gender identity is to say, "My gender is elf." (There are also people outside of the otherkin community who use similarly non-gender-related concepts and archetypes to describe their nonbinary genders; see [[xenogender]].) Much of the otherkin community is made up of folks who are [[transgender]], [[genderqueer]], or nonbinary. This has always been so, ever since the 1960s.<ref>Orion Scribner.
