* '''[[aporagender]]'''.

* '''[[neurogender#autismgender|autismgender]]'''. The name can be shortened, such as autigender or autgender. A gender identity with which some nonbinary people with autism choose to use to describe themselves.

They defined it as "autism as part or whole of gender identity; a gender that can only be understood in context of being autistic." When your gender experience is influenced by or linked to your autism, or your understanding of the concept of gender itself is fundamentally altered by your autism.<ref>The since-deleted post in the ''mogai-archive'' blog where this word was coined: http://mogai-archive.tumblr.com/post/93477063574/auti-s-gender Another blog's archive of that lost blog post: http://purrloinsucks.tumblr.com/post/95723823254/autisgender An archive of that archive: https://archive.is/BTFMN#selection-489.0-489.14</ref> In the 2016 Nonbinary/Genderqueer Survey, one of the respondents called their gender identity "autistic," and another said "autisgender."<ref name=NBGQ2016 /> In the 2019 Worldwide Gender Census, 66 of the respondents (0.59%) called their gender identity autigender, autgender, autistic, or autiqueer.<ref name="2019 Gender Census" />
