'''Agender''', also known more lightheartedly as gendern't, is complete [[Genderless|genderlessness]], or the lack of gender.<ref name=":0">https://agender.info<br /></ref> It is a [[Non-Binary|non-binary]] identity in which one is not [[Man|male]], [[Woman|female]], or any other gender. They may identify as most strongly as just a person, rather then as any given gender.

The original agender flag was designed by the Tumblr user Transrants aka Salem in 2014.<ref>https://pride-color-schemes.tumblr.com/post/147170289630/agender</ref> The color meanings are as follows:
* Black represents an absence of gender
* Grey represents partial gender
* Green represents the non-binary nature of this gender because green is the inverse of lavender (a mixture of pink and blue, representing a mix of female and male)
Variations on the agender flag usually include green and black.
The citrus agender flag variant by Mars (2021) has five stripes. The colors and meanings are:
* Green (leaves - working for agender liberation)
* Lime (limes - agender friendship, love, and community)
* Yellow (lemons - agender joy and celebration)
* Orange (oranges - agender artwork and creativity)
* Red (blood oranges - agender diversity and individual expression)
Several agender symbols exist. The most common is a circle (in reference to the [[Man|male]] and [[Woman|female]] symbols and many other gender symbols), with a line through it, either horizontally or diagonally (∅), likely representing gender being crossed out and absent. Another variant includes a line without prongs, similar to the [[neutrois]] symbol. Another, less common agender symbol is a plain circle (⚪), though this symbol is also sometimes used to represent [[Asexual|asexuality]].
