Ogligender

[pt: Ogligender/end pt]

Ogligender: Having few genders. Depending on the definition, a limit may be specified between two and five genders, or between three and five genders. But I think the term would also be useful for people with few genders (not necessarily 2-5 or 3-5) who don't want to identify as polygender for whatever reasons (the term being too broad, etc). It can also be an umbrella term for quadgender, quintgender, etc.

I've found too little about ogligender, so the identity of the person who coined it is unknown, but based on the term's presence on this list, the term has been around for a while. There is also this post made in 2016.

• Meaning of the stripes:

1. Lavender stripe: Gender spectrum (to show that ogligender people can have/be of any genders).

2. Aquamarine stripe: Acceptance.

3. Yellow stripe: Self-expression.

4. Indigo stripe: Community.

5. Gray stripes: Represent the small number of genders or the ambiguity of it.

The flag with uneven stripes was chosen as a reference to this ambiguity. An ogligender person might have three genders, might have four genders, or more. It depends on each individual's experience. The other flags are alternatives for those who do not like this type of design.

Personal experience: I recently came across the term ogligender and felt happy because I would say it represents my experiences better than polygender. I know I have more than two genders, but labeling myself as polygender made me repeatedly think about the number of genders I had, which made me anxious. The idea of having a large number of genders makes me nervous and also doesn't match my gender experience. I know polygender is a term that encompasses various experiences, including those of people with a few genders, but ogligender describes me better (and also makes me less stressed lol).

some vague(-ish) polygender(-like) identities

ogligender: for those who have a few identities, around 2-5;

ergender: a little bit boy, a little bit girl, a little bit nonbinary, and the rest of your identity is something else;

nubilagender: for people whose gender is partially cloudy/foggy, and partially clear. Can be used as deminubila, nanonubila, etc.;

mosaigender/portiogender: for those whose gender is made up of little pieces of multiple other genders;

slimegender: a subset of fluidflux/genderfluid where all of your genders feel like differently gendered slimes mixing together, with different combinations and amounts coming to the surface at different times;

spectragender: a gender that is such a spectrum that you can’t define it;

horrorgender: someone whose gender identity is so fluid and “all over the place”, it almost scares people (hence the horror part);

cosmicgender: a vast, complex gender that can only be processed through small bits each time, like the night sky through a telescope.

Various gender terms with no known flags (part 27)

Noungender: An umbrella term for any gender that's best described by a noun, particularly good for synaesthetic people. eg: seagender, a gender best described by the sea. Very flexible and personable.

Numbergender: A gender relating to those who identify themselves as/with a number or mathematical equation. Can also be a gender that revolves around all numbers in general. There's negative and positive numbergenders, and anything mathematical. Numbergender can, but doesn't have to be, very organized and orderly. See also: Arithmagender

Ogligender: Having 3-5 genders.

Obruogender: A gender which is overwhelming and suffocating.

Observigender: A gender which changes from its normal state when being observed; based on the observer effect. Ex: identifying as a woman until someone refers to you as such.

Odysseogender: Where your gender isn't set in stone right now and you're on an “odyssey” to find out what it is. Based on the Greek hero, Odysseus.

If any of you know if there’s flags for any of these already, please send a link to it so we can add it to the gallery! And if you know who coined it so we can properly credit them (and that includes if it was anonymously posted or the blog deactivated).
