Ottergender

Not to be confused with ottegender.

Ottergender is a xenogender used by those who strongly identify with otters, or those who want to incorporate them into their gender. It is intended for use by autistic people, and can be a kingender or a delusogender, but doesn't have to be. It is associated with the sounds of otters squeaking, the feeling of damp / wet fluffy fur, and the twitching of whiskers. This is technically a re-coin of the term, since the original creator simply defines the gender as "use however you want" [1 ], which is not a proper definition, thus, not a proper gender.

History
The term was re-coined on August 13 of 2021 by the Twitter users @kirbapy and @transbede [2 ]. It's intended to be a re-coin of the same term coined in November 25 of 2020 [3 ].
