Androgynique describes when one's ideal, or most comfortable, body/genitalia feels androgynous, but their gender does not. They feel that their body is/should be androgynous in some way but they themselves feel like their gender is separate and distinct from this.
Those who identify as androgynique may do so for various reasons:
- Feeling that having an androgynous physicality or presentation is integral to feeling whole/being comfortable, but that their gender does not mirror their physicality or presentation
- Feeling like their androgyny affects aspects of their gender but does not define it (ex. someone who would otherwise identify as masculine only, having feelings more similar to being roseusboy due to androgyny)
- Feeling unrelated to androgyny outside of social/visual identity and wanting a label to clarify this experience.
Terms can be added to the one above to indicate what an individual's coinciding gender is, such as:
- Werdrogynique/Androgynique Man - male counterpart
- Virogynique/Androgynique Boy - masculine counterpart
- Wifdrogynique/Androgynique Woman - female counterpart
- Juxerogynique/Androgynique Girl - feminine counterpart
This term is an identity counterpart to Angnigender.
Demiandrogynique
The term demiandrogynique can have multiple definitions:
- Being multigender/genderfluid where sometimes one experiences being androgynique alongside other genders or separately.
- Being androgynique for a majority of the time but experiencing dysphoric fluctuations, causing androgynous presentation to become undesirable for a length of time.
- Being androgynique for a majority of the time but experiencing gender fluctuations/fluidity, causing the gender(s) one experiences to sometimes be androgynous in nature.
- Being androgynique in a human context but having alterhuman experiences, where as a non-human one experiences androgynous genders.
- Being androgynique in a human context but having alterhuman experiences, where as a non-human one experiences components of gender alongside their human experience, causing them to feel androgynous in nature.
