introducing cogender

cogender (from the latin root co meaning "with, together" and gender) is an inclusive gender identity that is the union of two or more gender identities. A cogender person is ok being identified as any of the genders included in their identity. You can be cogender and not know it if your gender happens to include the sex you were assigned at birth.

The difference between a cogender whose gender happens include the gender they were assigned at birth and cis person is the cogender would ok with being identified as another gender.

one format of expressing this identify is X coY where X and Y are genders. Example girl coboy.

note a cogender person may want parts they don't have that are associated with their cogenders but don't need them, this doesn't mean the don't experience dysphoria just that they ok with the parts included in their gender identity. Example an agender cogirl person assigned male at birth may feel dysphoria over their genitals (and the reactions there of) and want breasts but don't need breasts.
