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).
