a gender that is mostly associated with animals, aesthetics, and feelings, but can be other things too!
Common Xenogenders are catgender, pupgender, bungender, sweetgender, and faegender. Most Xenogender users use neopronouns that correlate with their gender, such as kit/kitself/pup/pupself/bun/bunself/sweet/sweetself/fae/faeself/ Xenogenders are totally valid and help neurodivergent people understand what they identify as! Xenogenders that identify with animals do not mean that if you identify with them you identify as a cat, though this is a common misconception.

Get the Xenogender mug.The term 'xenogender' was coined on tumblr, and evolved from a joke attempting to mock the trans community, into a community of teens creating "genders" and fitting pronouns out of interests, characteristics or likes and dislikes.
This is extremely hurtful to the trans community, as it can lead to the trans community being taken less seriously and therefore trans healthcare being harder to access for trans individuals.

Hello, my name is Chaos, I am the founder of an anti-MAP and anti-zoo organization. I am here to clear up one small thing on Xenogenders as a Xeno user.
Regardless on what one user in particular said, Xenos are not used as MAP, Zoo, or Groomer dogwistles.
Xenogenders are genders created by Autistic Trans people (like myself) that represent how their gender feels to them, as many Autistic people do not feel gender the same way Allistic people do.
For example:
Catgender does not mean you identify as a cat; rather, your gender itself feels small, mysterious, fluffy, and sharp on occasion. Meowbahh is actually a young animator that had a platform of around 1K people before dropping off around 2015, meow doesn’t actually identify as Catgender but meow is a more mainstream example of the misuse of xenogenders.

My bf: Look at all of these xenogenders! I identify closely with all of them.
Me: That’s amazing, dear! What’s that xenogender?
My bf: Huskygender! It means my gender is energetic and loud at times, always warm.

Get the Xenogender mug.A form of self expression often used by neruodivergent people.
Xenogenders are ways to describe ones gender.
Ask someone how they'd describe their gender and you'll probably get stuff like "blue" or "tough" (masculine stuff for guys usually).

Get the Xenogender mug.A gender label made up by allistic (non-autistic) and neurotypical people on Tumblr who believe gender is a feeling, and therefore can be anything you want it to be. A “xenogender” is said to be any gender identity that falls outside of the concept of male, female, or neutral. The “xenogender” ideology is blatantly ignorant of all the decades worth of studies that prove that gender is neurological and not fake or constructed. It’s also commonly said that Xenogenders help autistic people express themselves, but zero studies show that “Xenogenders” are beneficial to individuals on the autism spectrum.
People who identify with made up Xenogenders usually call themselves trans and non-binary as well, when in reality, you are born trans as well as non-binary. Xenogender ideology insists it is a choice.

A: “I identify as catgender, which is my xenogender because I like cats”
B: “Interests and gender are two different things. Cats don’t do anything to describe gender.”
