'''Pangender,''' or '''omnigender''', is a [[gender identity]] in which a person either identifies as a countless number of separate identities that they are fluid between over time, or that they identify as one all encompassing identity. The genders that a pangender person has only includes genders within the person's own culture and life experience<ref name="genderwiki">{{Cite web |title=Pangender |author= |work=Gender Wiki |date=31 August 2018 |access-date=9 November 2020 |url= https://gender.wikia.org/wiki/Pangender?oldid=33547 }}</ref><ref>{{cite book|title=Navigating Trans and Complex Gender Identities|year=2019|at=page 140, Appendix E|publisher=Bloomsbury Publishing}}</ref> (e.g. their genders would not include [[Fa'afafine]] unless they are Samoan; their genders would not include [[Neurogender#Bordergender|bordergender]] unless they have Borderline Personality Disorder). | |||
A pangender person's identity may or may not include genders not currently recognized or known<ref name="genderwiki" /> and may or may not fluctuate in intensity or include differing intensities among the genders that the Pangender person encompasses. Thus a pangender person can also be [[genderfluid]] or [[genderflux]]. The combination of pangender and [[genderflux]] is called [[panflux]]. | |||
Just like any other gender identity, pangender people can use any set of [[pronouns]] they choose or vary between [[pronouns]] depending on how they identify at the time. | |||
An alternative term with a similar meaning is ''maxigender''<ref>{{cite book|title=The ABC's of LGBT+|last=Mardell|first=Ashley|year=2016}}</ref>, since some people on Tumblr who don't identify as pangender argue that it is appropriative of [[Ethnicity and culture|culturally-specific]] and [[Neurogender|neurotype-specific]] genders. The reason for that, according to them, is that no one can identify as all genders, as this would include culturally-specific or neurotype-specific genders.<ref>[https://bigendering.tumblr.com/post/161250119616/reminder-about-pangender Reminder about pangender], 30 May 2017</ref><ref>[https://kinda-girls.tumblr.com/post/159477370346/as-far-as-i-know-the-identity-that-means anonymous asked: As far as I know, the identity that means "identifying as all genders that are available to you" is maxigender], 11 April 2017</ref><ref>[https://jimjamjames.tumblr.com/post/163259277748 jimjamjames asked: Hi !I'm doing some research on the origins of the identity “Maxigender”], 21 July 2017</ref> | |||

The use of "pangender" as a identity goes back at least to the 1990s, as stated in the preface to ''The Flock'', a 1992 book by Lynn Wilson about dissociative identity disorder: "Some [[gender-nonconforming]] individuals call themselves [[androgyne]]s, pan-gender, or [[non-binary]]."<ref>{{cite book|title=The Flock|isbn=9780449907320|year=1992|last=Wilson|first=Lynn|page=xi|publisher=Fawcett Columbine}}</ref> | |||
Pangender was mentioned as one of many valid nonbinary identities in the 2013 text ''Sexuality and Gender for Mental Health Professionals: A Practical Guide''.<ref>{{cite book|isbn=9781446293133|title=Sexuality and Gender for Mental Health Professionals: A Practical Guide|last1=Richards|first1=Christina|last2=Barker|first2=Meg|year=2013|publisher=SAGE Publications}}</ref> | |||
