    Pangender, or omnigender, is a gender identity that encompasses a large number of or all genders (of one's culture, because one cannot identify with gender(s) outside their culture). This could mean feeling many or all genders at the same time or being fluid between many or all genders across time. Thus a pangender person can also be genderfluid or genderflux. The combination of pangender and genderflux is called panflux. A pangender person who identifies with all genders can include genders not currently recognized or known[1]. Pangender people can use any set of pronouns they choose or vary between pronouns depending on how they identify at the time.

    History

    « "X" means a gender that is not exclusively male or female, including, but not limited to, intersex, agender, amalgagender, androgynous, bigender, demigender, female-to-male, genderfluid, genderqueer, male-to-female, neutrois, nonbinary, pangender, third sex, transgender, transsexual, Two Spirit, and unspecified.[3] »
