'''Xenogender''' (coined in 2014 by Tumblr user Baaphomett in a submission to the MOGAI-Archive blog, from ''xeno'' alien + "gender")<ref name="baaphomett masterpost">Baaphomett.

When people talk about nonbinary gender, they often find that there aren't any words for their experiences. This is called a lexical gap. In order to fill a lexical gap, this wiki takes up "xenogender" as an [[umbrella term]] for an entire category of nonbinary genders that are defined by characteristics with no relation whatsoever to "female" or "male." The adjective "xenine" means "of or pertaining to xenogenders". The noun form of xenine is xenity.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://momma-mogai-sphinx.tumblr.com/post/183175311934/im-sort-of-new-to-al-of-this-what-exactly-does |title=Anonymous asked: i'm sort of new to al of this, what exactly does 'xenine' mean? |date=2 March 2019}}</ref>

Because a [[gender binary]] society doesn't give much in the way of roles or descriptions for nonbinary genders, some transgender and nonbinary people address the challenge of describing their unusual gender identities by creative methods, referring to concepts that aren't usually seen as related to gender. This has been observed in very young nonbinary people:

'''Neurodiversity:''' Some nonbinary people have mental variations (mental illnesses, neurological conditions, or neurodivergence). Some who have mental variations see these as an influence on-- or an inseparable part of-- their gender identity. These are called neurogenders, and most of them are not described on this page, but on the [[neurogender]] page.
