'''Egogender''' | '''Egogender''' or '''charagender''' are terms for a gender which is so personal to someone that they can only describe it as "me"-gender.<ref>https://nandbaremyfavouriteletters.tumblr.com/post/137019840737/egogender-a-gender-identity-that-feels-unique-to</ref> Thus, no two egogender individuals have the same gender, although they have the same gender label. One may also use (name)gender with their name inserted for a synonymous term. This can be considered a type of [[xenogender]], since it is not related to the concepts of female or male. | ||
< | It can also be specified further, as egoguy, egogirl, or egononbinary.<ref>https://same-memes.tumblr.com/post/101781323202/i-made-some-flags-for-egogender-egoguy-egogirl</ref> When combined with [[genderflux]] it becomes egoflux or charaflux.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/pride-flags/art/Egoflux-Charaflux-1-726901927</ref> | ||
The name is derived from Latin "ego", meaning "I". | |||
Should not be confused with [[Xenogender#Egoisgender|egoisgender]]. | |||
