Absgender is a gender modality in which the person feels their gender experience is in between, beyond or removed from cisgender /transgender dichotomy; being neither cis nor trans; or both cisn't and trans't.
History
From Latin, “Abs-”, a prefix meaning “away (from)”, in this case referring to being conceptually ‘away’ from explicit cisgenderness/cisness and transgenderness/transness. + “-gender”, an English neologistic suffix indicating genderedness/genderness. Coined by Gent (Gender-Resource) in 2020 after Arco-Pluris requested an alternative term for Isogender.
“Abs-” can be used as a prefix in the same way that “Cis-” or “Trans-” can be used as prefixes to discuss one’s gender in relation to their assignment.
