This page is about a gender identity that is not widely used among gender-variant people. This does not mean that the identity is not valid, but that very few people are known to use this term. More information on uncommon identities... |
Quoigender (from French quoi, quoi "what" + "gender") is a nonbinary gender identity with several definitions:
- someone who feels that gender identity and/or existing gender terms don't apply to them
- someone whose relationship with gender is complicated; someone who isn't sure whether they experience gender or what gender identity means for them
- can be used as an alternative to "questioning", in order to communicate exhaustion or frustration with searching for a better gender identity term for oneself
- someone who is done with gender and doesn't care much for it as a concept; frustration with gender
