Agender people do not identify with any gender. They see themselves as being neither men nor women for all practical purposes.

Although they have no gender, they still have a gender identity, which is agender, and a sex.

They tend to always prefer gender neutral pronouns (often "they" and "them" but others prefer new ones like "xim" or "her") and also tend to take offence if referred to with gendered terms like "brother" or "wife". They might want to be called "neutrois" in place of "man" or "woman".

They may or may not have gender dsyphoria and wish to change their bodies.

Being agender does not entail any particular look but they often do seem quite epicene.

They call themselves "agender" not "agendered" and are an example of non-binary transgender or genderqueer.

Instead of being "straight" or "gay" they tend to use terms like "androsexual", "gynosexual", "enbian" etc.

Even people very welcoming to the transgender community find their patience stretched with the agender community.

Get the Agender mug.

agender

In some English dialects, the word agenda often sounds similar to or like agender and may be confused with each other sometimes, especially for those not familiar with local accents.

Mike: I'll plot the meeting on my 'agender' for next week.
Ross: You mean 'agenda', right?
