Egogender

Egogender or charagender are terms for a gender which is so personal to someone that they can only describe it as "me"-gender. 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. When combined with genderflux it becomes egoflux or charaflux.

The name is derived from Latin "ego", meaning "I".

Should not be confused with egoisgender.
