'''[[Ambonec]]''' is a [[nonbinary]] [[gender identity]] in which a person identifies as both [[female]], [[male]] and neither at the same time. Coined by transmalenaoto (nbshadow) in 2014,<ref>http://mogai-archive.tumblr.com/post/91796206149/ambonec-an-for-short</ref> from Latin ''ambo'' "both" + ''nec'' "neither". Described by the one who coined it as a nonbinary "gender identity in which you identify as both male and female, yet you also identify as neither, at the same time. You can lean towards any sort of [[gender expression]] [...] if you wanted. You can use [any] [[pronouns]] if you wanted. You can identify this within bi/tri/qua/etc if you wanted. You can be [[demigender|demi]]-[ambonec], meaning there could be circumstances where it changes (mood, etc). You do not need [[gender dysphoria|dysphoria]] to identify as [ambonec]."<ref>nbshadow.
