Customgender: Under the syngender (as opposed to antegender) umbrella, “customgender” refers to a gender identity involving an experience of crafting one’s gender to fit one according to one’s tastes. It can be a gender that one makes for oneself to ensure that it has all the necessary specifications that one desires.

Clastogender: Often under the agender umbrella, and possibly under the syngender umbrella, “clastogender” is a description that can be applied to one having an experience of destroying or having destroyed their gender.

Dialegender: Often under the genderfluid and hyperfluid, a dialegender can be a gender Identity involving the experience of a gender that responds to and enacts change upon its environment in a dialectical loop. For example, a baseline gender might have a need that it projects onto the universe. That need might inform action such that the gender actualizes in the world in the same way by doing (i.e. a “gender event” occurs). The process of integrating the event then might take place as a dialegender being might make sense of that event in relation to their own personal narrative before their gender might evolve to be more expansive than what it was before, only to engage in the whole process of inquiry and dialectic again.

Artegender: Formerly referred to as “Anthropaesthetigender” and under the xenoporogender (that is, xenogenders with very specific non-binary alignments) umbrella “Artegender” is an umbrella term that refers to xenogender identities that can very strongly correspond with artifacts or concepts originating from cultural production. For example, “Artegenders” can refer to identities under the religiogender umbrella (e.g. catholicgender, gendermystic, pagangender, islamogender, gendernaut, etc.), under the Artgender umbrella (e.g. filmgender, dancegender, literaturegender), under the stylegender umbrella (e.g. casualgender, chichgender, gothgender, kawaiigender) among many others.

Quantigender: Under the Entheogender umbrella, a quantigender is a gender that is an earthly transmutation originating in a conscious awareness of dimensions of reality typically separate from any of the perceptions of everyday life. Examples of skills essential to have experiences beyond what can be described as typical, include expertise in hard sciences, mystical practice, or any other skill one has developed sufficiently to be able to experience a fully focused state of immersion and flow, from acrobatics to knitting. It is through the mental state of clarity, equanimity, and unwavering focus that one can begin to release one’s grasp of one’s physical body, and begin to identify more with one’s subtle energetic body, before, in turn, letting go of the subtle body before ultimately coming to identify with the multiverse, Omega Point, or Cosmic Consciousness as whole. It is in these super-dimensional travels and in subsequent dimensions, that the origins of earthly quantigenders can be mapped.

Demihypercryptofae: Often under the respective demigender, hypergender, cryptogender, and faegender umbrellas,  “demihypercryptofae” might refer to a partial (demi-) though particularly qualitatively intense (hyper-) alignment to a gender that cannot be known using typical linguistic constructs (crypto-),  that is, at least in large part, related to any of the identities outside of spectrums of masculinity (fae-).

Dreamgender: Often identifiable under the xenogender (not defined in relationship to men/women), and aporogender (specific, as opposed to non-specific, gender alignments) umbrellas, and often situated on a spectrum opposite nightmaregender, “dreamgender” can refer to a gender that is strongly aligned with the state, experience, effects, discussions, implications, requisite conditions, and/or anything else having to do with dreams. *Note that despite much controversy around the issue, both “dreamgender” and “nightmaregender” can fall under either the artegender umbrella or the physiogender umbrella, meaning that it can describe both experiences that are strongly aligned with the dreams as human artifacts and with dreams as a natural phenomena.
