    File:File:

    Egogender or charagender are terms for a gender which is so personal to someone that they can only describe it as "me"-gender.[1] 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.[2]

    Flags

    There is no universally-accepted flag for the egogender identity, but several have been proposed. Below are some of them. For egoguy, egogirl, and egononbinary flags, see Category:Egogender pride flags.
